With many counterfeit Labubu figures on the market, collectors should be aware of the key differences between real and fake versions. First, check the foil stamping and color tone — fakes often have darker blush and blurred logos. Authentic boxes include the POP MART logo, dehumidification bag, and clear watermarks inside the foil. The place of origin on real packaging is usually Hong Shan City, while fakes may say Shenzen.
Also inspect the teeth (real has 9 teeth), eye and blush color, and the material finish — genuine ones have matte feet and hands, whereas fakes may appear shiny. Under UV light, the authentic Labubu shows a clear, specific icon (e.g., standing pose), while fakes often display a sitting icon or one that’s visible even without UV.
Fake V2s have improved significantly, including QR codes and similar fonts, but the serial number check reveals the truth. Real codes link to popmart.com, while fakes redirect from suspicious URLs. Always verify the security code for authenticity.
