Why is there so much hype around Labubu?
You're sure to have seen shoppers queueing around the block to get their hands on a Labubu on your TikTok feed, with social media influencers, such as Olivia Attwood, unboxing the toys on camera. From vinyl figures to plush toys, there are lots of different types of Labubu on offer, but the keychain toys are proving the most sought after.

The biggest reason behind their appeal? Labubu is predominantly sold in a blind box format, which means customers don’t know which toy they will get until they are home. The rarest Labubu dolls are often ‘secret’ colourways or limited edition releases, such as the Monsters Zimomo I Found You doll.
