Labubu, the iconic mischievous monster created by Kasing Lung and brought to life by Pop Mart, has grown into an expansive universe of collectibles.1 For new and seasoned collectors alike, a common question arises: just how many Labubu figures are there? The answer, while not a single fixed number, reveals the incredible depth and continuous expansion of this beloved franchise.
It's challenging to give a precise, static number for all Labubu figures for several reasons:
- Continuous Releases: Pop Mart consistently releases new series, collaborations, and special editions throughout the year.2 What's current today might be augmented by new figures tomorrow.
- Variations within Series: Each blind box series typically includes 6 to 12 "regular" figures, plus one or more "secret" or "chase" figures, which significantly adds to the count.3
- Different Sizes and Formats: Labubu comes in various sizes (from small keychains to Mega 400% and 1000% figures) and formats (vinyl figures, plush dolls, tin toys, accessories, etc.).4
- Collaborations: Pop Mart frequently collaborates with other artists, brands, and franchises, leading to unique, limited-edition Labubu designs that are distinct from the main series.5
However, based on available information, we can provide an impressive estimate and categorize the vast array of Labubu figures.
The Sheer Volume: Hundreds of Labubu Figures
By mid-2025, it is estimated that there are well over 300 different Labubu figurines.6 This number encompasses the wide variety of designs, sizes, and special releases that have emerged since Labubu's inception. This figure continues to grow as Pop Mart expands "The Monsters" universe.
Let's break down the types and series that contribute to this impressive count:
1. Core Blind Box Series (Vinyl Figures)
These are the most common and recognizable forms of Labubu. Each series features Labubu in different themes, outfits, and poses. Examples include:
- The Monsters Toys Series: Often considered the classic and foundational series, featuring Labubu in various playful scenarios.
- Have a Seat Series: Extremely popular, showcasing Labubu in a charming seated position with different accessories.7
- Big into Energy Series: Another sought-after series featuring dynamic poses and vibrant designs.8
- Fall in Wild Series: Labubu embracing nature with wilderness-inspired outfits.9
- Playing Games Series: Capturing the joy of classic games and imaginative storytelling.
- Exciting Macaron (Key-ring Line): One of the earlier keychain lines with dessert-inspired colors.10
- Russian Dolls, Clay Doll, Puppet: Series exploring different artistic and toy forms.
- Classic Characters in The Monsters Series: While primarily featuring Labubu, sometimes other characters from "The Monsters" universe (Zimomo, Mokoko) are included in these themed series, contributing to the broader collection.11
Each of these series typically contains:
- Regular Figures: Usually 9 to 12 distinct designs.
- Secret Figures: At least one, sometimes two, ultra-rare designs per series, which are highly coveted.12
2. Plush Dolls and Plush Pendants
Labubu is not just limited to vinyl figures.13 A significant portion of its variations comes in plush form:
- Standard Plush Dolls: Larger, soft versions of Labubu.
- Plush Pendants/Bag Charms: Smaller plush versions designed to be carried as accessories. The "Exciting Macaron" and "Have a Seat" series also have popular plush pendant versions, distinct from their vinyl counterparts, featuring different expressions and materials.14
- Limited Edition Plush: Special releases, often with unique fabrics or collaborative themes.
3. Mega Labubu Figures
For collectors who want a larger statement piece, Pop Mart releases "Mega" Labubu figures in various scales:
- Mega 100% (around 7cm/3 inches): Often sold in sets or as special standalone figures.
- Mega 400% (around 28cm/11 inches): A popular medium-large size, frequently used for collaborations.
- Mega 1000% (around 70cm/27.5 inches): Large, impressive display pieces, often limited edition.
- Human-Sized/Artist Proofs (e.g., 131cm): Extremely rare, often unique pieces created for exhibitions or auctions, representing the pinnacle of the collection. These are typically not available for general retail.
Each of these Mega figures, whether a standard colorway or a special collaboration, counts as a distinct Labubu variant.
4. Special Editions and Collaborations
These are some of the most highly anticipated and diverse Labubu releases. They merge Labubu's iconic design with other popular IPs or artistic concepts:
- Anime/Manga Collaborations:
- Fashion/Brand Collaborations:
- Artist Collaborations: Beyond Kasing Lung, other artists sometimes lend their unique styles to Labubu figures.
- Seasonal/Holiday Editions: Labubu figures released for specific holidays (e.g., Chinese New Year, Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's Day).19
- Regional Exclusives: Certain Labubu figures might only be available in specific regions or countries.
Each collaboration and special edition contributes multiple new figures to the overall count, adding unique designs, colorways, and accessories.20
5. Accessories and Lifestyle Products
While not "figures" in the traditional sense, Pop Mart also releases a wide range of Labubu-themed merchandise, including:
- Keychains (beyond the blind box series)21
- Bags and backpacks
- Apparel
- Stationery
- Home decor items (e.g., scented candles, earphone cases, phone cases)
These items, while not strictly collectible figures, further expand the Labubu universe and brand presence.
The Ever-Growing Universe
The exact number of Labubu figures is a moving target, constantly increasing with each new announcement from Pop Mart. The strategy of releasing new series, limited editions, and exciting collaborations keeps the collecting community engaged and ensures that there's always something new for fans to anticipate.
For collectors, it means the hunt is never truly over. It's a continuous journey of discovering new designs, chasing rare secrets, and celebrating the imaginative world of Kasing Lung's mischievous monster. While counting them all might be an impossible task, the sheer variety underscores Labubu's enduring appeal and its dominant position in the designer toy world.
