Warning issued as fake versions of popular Labubu dolls pose deadly threat to children
Briefly

Counterfeit Labubu dolls, known as Lafufus, present significant dangers to children due to their size, which allows for choking. These imitation toys break apart easily, releasing small parts. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has warned against their purchase, urging consumers to stop using them immediately. They recommend buying only from reputable sellers and checking for specific features like holographic stickers and safety certifications. The CPSC emphasizes that no toy should cause breathing concerns for children, advising vigilance against cheap imitation products.
These fake Labubu dolls are dangerous, illegal, and have no place in American homes. No parent should have to wonder if a toy will stop their child from breathing.
Beware of bargains - deep discounts can signal fake products. Authentic Pop Mart Labubu dolls feature a holographic Pop Mart sticker, a scannable QR code linking to the official Pop Mart site.
Fakes often have overly bright colors or the wrong number of teeth (authentic dolls have nine). Know your seller - purchase only from trusted stores or online marketplaces.
