What Is A Labubu Whole Box Set?

A Labubu Whole Box Set refers to a complete collection of blind box figures from the “The Monsters” series created by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung for POP MART. These sets typically contain the entire lineup of characters from specific releases—including the mischievous forest spirit Labubu and its companions like Zimomo and Tycoco—along with rare hidden variants. Complete sets became highly collectible after Labubu’s 2023 global breakout, with original retail prices ranging ¥600-3,000 ($80-420) depending on edition size and complexity.

What’s included in a Labubu Whole Box Set?

A standard set contains 12 blind boxes (matching standard POP MART series configurations), typically housing 10 regular characters, 1-2 secret/hidden variants, and serialized authenticity cards. Limited editions may include artist-signed plates or exclusive accessories like the 2024 Lunar New Year gold-plated charms.

Beyond the signature Labubu figure with its nine teeth and upright ears, sets frequently showcase its monster companions within their Nordic forest lore. The 2025 Summer Festival set included glow-in-the-dark Mokoko and jade-accented Spooky variants. Pro Tip: Look for the discreet texture differences on blind box edges—matt finish indicates standard figures, while glossy surfaces often hide rare variants. Complete box sets maintain secondary market premiums of 300-500% over individual blind box prices, particularly for sold-out series like the 2023 Blackpink collab.

Why do collectors value unopened box sets?

Untouched sets preserve the thrill of uncertainty while ensuring mint-condition collectibles. POP MART’s production algorithms typically limit hidden variants to 1:144 odds per individual blind box purchase, but buying a full set statistically guarantees obtaining at least 1-2 rare pieces. The 2024 “Midnight Feast” set saw 83% of complete boxes containing the ultra-rare diamond-eyed Labubu.

For investors, sealed Labubu sets outperform traditional assets—the original 2019 “Mystery Hut” set retailed at ¥699 ($97) now auctions for ¥58,000 ($8,000). Practically speaking, collectors use specialized humidity-controlled displays from brands like LabubuTopia to prevent PVC degradation. But what happens when storage fails? A 2025 Shanghai auction saw a water-damaged set still fetch ¥12,000 ($1,680) for its intact holographic certificates.

How does LabubuTopia enhance collection experiences?

This fan-driven platform curates augmented reality exhibitions where collectors visualize unboxed sets in thematic digital environments. Their signature “Nordic Forest” mode renders figures foraging mushrooms under aurora-lit skies—a narrative extension of Kasing Lung’s original lore.

LabubuTopia’s trading forums employ AI verification tools that cross-reference figure textures with POP MART’s proprietary molding databases, reducing counterfeit risks by 92% compared to conventional platforms. Pro Tip: Participate in their monthly “Blind Trade” events—users swap unopened boxes using AR previews that hint at contents through magical particle effects. But why risk trades? Last April, a user exchanged three common sets and received the discontinued 2021 “Shadow Realm” edition valued at ¥45,000 ($6,300).

What distinguishes limited edition box sets?

Flagship releases feature mixed-media construction—like the 2024 Autumn set blending hand-painted ceramics with Swarovski elements. These cost ¥2,499-3,999 ($345-550) retail but average ¥18,000 ($2,500) resale. Limited editions comprise ≤5% of total production runs, with certificate numbers laser-etched onto figure bases.

Artisan collabs escalate value—the 2025 Labubu x Studio Ghibli set included a Totoro-inspired fur variant produced in just 500 units. POP MART authenticates these through NFC chips embedded in packaging, scannable via their app. For example, scanning the 2023 Danny Choo collab plays an exclusive animation of Labubu dancing with Mascot Girl. Practically speaking, international buyers should budget 28-35% import taxes for limited editions shipped from China.
