How to Spot Fake Labubu Figures: A Clear Comparison Guide

Collecting Labubu and Lafufu figures brings joy to collectors worldwide, but the rise of counterfeits makes it easy to get scammed if you aren't careful. This clear guide shows you exactly how to spot fake Labubu and Lafufu figures by comparing packaging, paint quality, materials, and hidden details, ensuring you protect your collection and your money. 1- Check the Packaging Genuine Labubu: Box printing is sharp, with vibrant colors. Pop Mart or Ziqi logos are clear, not blurry. QR codes and barcodes are printed cleanly. The plastic bag inside is neatly sealed. Fake Labubu often has: Faded or off-color printing. Misaligned logos or blurry text. Missing holographic sticker (older versions may lack this, so check your specific release). Cheap, thin box material. 2- Examine the Paint Quality Authentic Labubu has: Clean paint lines, no smudges or bleeding. Consistent coloring across ears, eyes, and clothing. No overpainting on the teeth or eyes. Fakes often show: Uneven paint, sloppy lines. Incorrect colors (e.g., wrong shade on fur). Paint chips or sticky surfaces. 3- Feel the Material Real Labubu: Made of quality vinyl, solid but not too heavy. Surface feels smooth with a slight matte finish. Joints (if applicable) are firm and do not pop off easily. Fake Labubu: Feels too light or oddly heavy. Feels oily or overly shiny. Parts may fall off easily. 4- Inspect the Details Original Labubu: Teeth, eyes, ears are finely detailed. Text on the bottom of the feet (if applicable) is sharp and clear. Accessories (if included) fit perfectly. Fakes: Teeth are uneven or melted looking. Missing or poorly printed foot text. Accessories may be warped or not fit properly. 5- Check Seller Credibility Buy from: Official Pop Mart stores. Authorized online retailers (like Pop Mart AliExpress Official, Tmall Official, etc.). Trusted resellers with solid reviews. Avoid: Very low prices ("too good to be true"). Sellers with no track record or reviews. 6- Use Pop Mart App to Scan QR (if applicable) Newer releases may include a QR code you can scan using the Pop Mart app to verify authenticity. Note that not all series have this feature, but if it's there: - App confirms the item. - If the app says 'invalid' or 'already scanned many times,' it's likely fake. 7- Compare with Official Photos Summary: Buy from reputable sources. Check packaging quality, paint lines, and feel. Look for Pop Mart authenticity stickers. Use the Pop Mart app if available. Compare carefully with official photos.

CHAGEE's Signature Drink Gets a Meaningful Makeover: Introducing BO·YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA

SINGAPORE - Media OutReach Newswire - 21 May 2025 - This International Tea Day, CHAGEE unveils a new name for its global bestseller: BO·YA JASMINE GREEN MILK TEA. More than a name change, BO·YA reflects what the tea truly stands for — connection, craftsmanship, and flavour that resonates beyond taste. With over 600 million cups sold annually, this is CHAGEE's most beloved drink. The new name honours its popularity while shining a light on the artistry behind every cup. A new name for a timeless craft While jasmine green tea is common in Southeast Asia, not all jasmine teas are created equal. Many rely on artificial sprays or oil-based flavourings to mimic fragrance, resulting in tea that smells strong but tastes hollow. BO·YA is different. Crafted using a traditional multi-round scenting method, fresh jasmine blossoms are layered over green tea leaves each night at peak bloom, then removed by hand and replaced over multiple cycles. The leaves absorb not just the scent, but the soul of the flowers — leaving behind no petals, only a naturally layered aroma. The tea itself is a blend of two premium teas: Yunnan high-mountain leaves, prized for depth, and Fujian Da Bai Hao, known for clarity. Every batch is handpicked at the standard of 'one bud and two leaves', then transformed through CHAGEE's artisan process. A tea steeped in meaning The name BO·YA draws from the Chinese legend of Bo Ya and Ziqi — a musician and woodcutter who formed a rare friendship through deep understanding. Their story inspired the phrase zhī yīn (知音) — someone who truly hears and understands you. Today, BO·YA speaks to that same kind of connection. It's about discovering something that just clicks — like finding a favourite tea or sharing a quiet moment with someone who simply gets it. More than a drink With the renaming of its most iconic drink, CHAGEE continues its mission to elevate tea culture for a new generation, bridging heritage with modernity. 'BO·YA holds special significance to us. It's more than just our bestselling drink; it reflects what CHAGEE stands for,' said Eugene Lee, Chief Marketing Officer, CHAGEE APAC. 'As we expand across the region, we stay rooted in tradition while looking ahead. With BO·YA, we hope to share not just a beautifully crafted tea, but a moment of connection — with flavour, culture, and each other.' The rename also caps off a banner year for CHAGEE's international expansion. With successful entries into Indonesia and the United States, and more stores launching across APAC, BO·YA is set to lead the way — not just as a drink, but as a symbol of CHAGEE's evolving global identity.
