Ugly Dolls in See Also

edit

Straightforward, due to the many similarities, UglyDolls should be in the see also list. Just my opinion but seems obvious to me. 2803:A200:6CAE:84E:F529:5E45:2DD5:C106 (talk) 15:45, 15 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Possibly useful source

edit

This article by The Guardian about the addictiveness of Labubu's blind boxes might be useful: My buyer’s guilt is insane. It’s $1,300 on trash’: the adults addicted to blind box toys like Labubus. Sophocrat (talk) 20:35, 18 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Cultural Impact

edit

The 'Cultural Impact' panel seems slightly outdated as-is; though justifiably Asian-focused, many Western trends and collaborations, such as Steak-n-Shake, Coca Cola, and others are currently absent. 67.144.42.231 (talk) 16:30, 22 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Movie production

edit

I heard that a official Labubu film is in progress with Paul King Wenxi She, Department M, and Sony Pictures. The movie its self has been in articles like The Guardian, Variety, and Hypebeast, with social media including Facebook, Reddit, and Instagram. MainRecline (talk) 19:12, 30 December 2025 (UTC)Reply

In the cultural impact section, add information about the fish known as Careproctus colliculi, or the bumpy snailfish. Make a new subsection called Similarity to a newly discovered fish species I want the edit to say A species of fish known as Careproctus colliculi, or the bumpy snailfish as been compared to the Labubu trend due to the description of the fish.<ref name="Cute and pink Bumpy Snailfish discovered by researchers in California">Gomez, Julia (19 September 2025). "Labubu of the deep sea? Meet this cute, pink snailfish just discovered". USA Today. Retrieved 9 April 2026. ~2026-21432-06 (talk) 15:23, 9 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

 Not done: The comparison of this fish species to a Labubu seems like an excuse for a clickbait title from this particular journalist. There's no indication from that source that a substantial amount of people are actually making the comparison. Day Creature (talk) 16:01, 9 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

edit request: Labubu forced labor

edit

Recent investigations have confirmed worker exploitation violations and even forced labor in relation to Labubu dolls manufacturing. See the following links:

NYT: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/23/business/labubu-cotton-banned-forced-labor-law-xinjiang-china.html

BBC: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn4037v0w12o

I'm requesting an edit that makes light of this information, preferably in the opening paragraphs. ~2026-24936-74 (talk) 14:12, 23 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
