Along with the Ternurines, the Labubus have achieved great popularity in Mexico. If you are looking for these figures you came to the right place, because we will tell you how to know if a Labubu is original or fake. Take note.
Both the boxes and these figures have different characteristics that will let you know if the Labubu you want to buy is original or a Chafubu.
How to know if a Labubu is original? Take a look at these aspects
It is said that “the essential is in the details” and when it comes to Labubus, this phrase makes even more sense. One of the ways to identify if a Labubu is a fake is the details of each piece.
Leo, from Carsof Shop, explained that it is important to look at the seams of the Labubus, as well as the way the details are painted. If the teeth, nose or mouth line are poorly painted, it is likely that the piece is not original.
On the other hand, the head of an original Labubu can rotate completely; while the arms have some movement. Regarding price, the fake figures usually cost between $500 and $700, while the originals will run you between $1,200 and $1,800 each.
There are many very well-made imitation pieces; however, there is one infallible aspect to know if the Labubu is original or not: the QR code found on the back of the box.
When scanning it, it should direct you to the official Pop Mart website; however, in the case of non-original pieces, the QR code takes you to a very similar site. In this case you must make sure that the URL is the official one.
