Who Is Labubu? The Character That Started It All

Labubu is one of the most beloved characters from Kasing Lung’s creative world, The Monsters. With its mischievous personality and quirky design, Labubu stands out from typical kawaii mascots. It’s adorable, yet slightly creepy, and that contrast has made it wildly popular in Asia and beyond.

When Pop Mart, the global leader in art toys, collaborated with Kasing Lung, they turned Labubu into a series of collectible blind box figures. From then on, Labubu became a household name in the designer toy scene.



Meet the Artist Behind Labubu: Kasing Lung

Labubu was brought to life by Kasing Lung, a Hong Kong-based illustrator and designer who started his career in children’s book illustration. His work is heavily inspired by fairy tales, dreamlike stories, and surreal fantasy worlds.

Kasing Lung created The Monsters Universe, where Labubu and its friends live. This world combines whimsical characters with edgy, unexpected details, which is why Labubu feels so different from the usual cute collectibles. His art style resonates with fans who love creepy-cute aesthetics, detailed costumes, and imaginative storytelling.



Why Is Labubu So Popular Among Collectors?

Labubu’s appeal is more than skin-deep. Here’s why collectors can’t get enough:

✔ Playful Design: A perfect mix of cute and edgy.

✔ Artistic Origins: Created by a respected designer in the art toy scene.

✔ Variety of Series: Each Pop Mart collection brings new costumes and concepts, making every release fresh and collectible.

✔ Limited Editions & Secrets: Some Labubu figures are ultra-rare, making the hunt exciting for collectors.
