Labubus took over the world last year, and are trickling into 2026.
The plushie is polarizing but undoubtedly popular. According to Pop Mart and industry observers, global sales of the Labubu doll series surpassed 100 million units in 2025, according to Global Times. This popularity was only inflated when musicians such as Madonna, BLACKPINK’s Lisa, Lizzo, Dua Lipa, BTS members V and j-hope, Lady Gaga and Stray Kids’ Felix were all seen with the fuzzy collectible either clipped to bags or even transformed into birthday cakes.
Everyone wanted one attached to their bags, displayed on shelves and tacked onto keys, and for a while, the toy was extremely hard to get. Due to high demand, the popular plush could range from $67 to nearly $300 on third-party sites such as StockX and Walmart. For reference on Pop Mart, Labubus run for $22.99 to $27.99, depending on the series.
While Labubus are great, we think it’s time for some other blind boxes to have their moment in the sun. There are plenty of unique series out there just waiting for collectors to snag them. While some are unique characters crafted by artists from around the world, others might be recognizable, especially for those who love cartoon characters or cute collectibles from the past. They’re also relatively easy to obtain now, available at retailers both in-store and online. Below, we’ve included a few of our favorites from retailers such as Urban Outfitters, Smoko, Hot Topic and more. Keep reading to shop our favorites.
