Deep Dive: How Labubu Turned Pop Mart Into a Global Toy Empire

The Rundown

About this episode

Pop Mart’s Labubu dolls have exploded into a global phenomenon, going viral on TikTok, selling out in seconds, and commanding six-figure prices at auction. In this episode, we explore how a quirky $15 blind box toy became the crown jewel of a $43 billion business. From artist-driven IP to a booming adult collector market, Pop Mart is reshaping how China exports culture. But with rising regulation and fears of a blind box crackdown, could Labubu’s moment already be peaking?
