The Labubu toy, a palm-sized plush doll with sharp teeth and a cult following, was removed from UK store shelves due to safety concerns stemming from chaotic customer behavior. Pop Mart, the Chinese toy company distributing Labubu, halted in-store sales across its 16 UK locations after reports of fights, violence, and hostility among customers vying for the viral collectible. The frenzy was fueled by the toy’s popularity, amplified by celebrities like Rihanna, Dua Lipa, and Blackpink’s Lisa, and the “blind box” sales model, where buyers don’t know which specific doll they’ll get, increasing demand for rare versions.
