I really love this "labubu" things BUT THIS SHIT SHOULDNT BE THAT EXPENSIVE

>>11489156 (OP)
i like spinners better. they SPIN
spinners > labubu

Gotta hand it to em they're pretty cute

Have a sex

>>11489156 (OP)
They used to be affordable tho, they had the same price as any other pop mart blind box, like $10 a piece and $60 the whole box

They're literally demons. It's just another transparent attempt to normalize the grotesque.

>>11489294
>normalize the grotesque
The 90s already normalized the grotesque

i dont hate labubu's but i hate their consumerism popularity causing me to lose out on the other popmart collections cos people dont know how to buy things in moderation

I think these wannabe Naruto labubus are amusing, but good god having them as blind box and at almost $30 is stupid af.

>>11489295
The 80s already did that with Garbage Pail Kids, Madballs and the TMNT line.>>11489295

>Hinata
I now headcanon that Hinata's kuchiyose is some type of komainu creature to match with her jutsu.

Hell I'd say even older than that, they're essentially glorified monchichis

None of those faddy grossout toys were anywhere near as widespread and infectious as these. Those were targeted at preteen boys, these are aimed for women in general and social media 'influencers' specifically. And we all know how many millennial parents just leave their toddlers in front of a device all day. It isn't the same at all.

(You)

Fucking Mad Hatters selling Lafufus for 44 dollars.

>>11489156 (OP)
You'll be getting them at ROSS next year for $4.99 when the fad dies off.

I found a weird huge one for $30 that was only just the head for some reason, at some craft fair / random crap market, just before the fad really started, it's probably worth one million dollars now

Peach Riot is better.

>>11489998
Yeah those girls are cute.

>>11489846
I hope so, I really want loyalty.

>>11489156 (OP)
Do you have the 24 Karat GOLD LABOOBOOOOO?

>>11489641
I got her and Sasuke at a con. I thought her costume was a lion or something. Itachi is the stupid rare chase.

>I thought her costume was a lion or something
It is. They're lion-dog spirits that guard sacred places.

>>11489156 (OP)
Has anyone put a fleshlight in one of these yet?

>>11489665
Probably wouldn't be that widespread had the grotesque not been normalized in the 80s and 90s.
And if you think this faddy shit is any different to Beanie Babies, you are deluding yourself.
>And we all know how many millennial parents just leave their toddlers in front of a device all day. It isn't the same at all.
In my day we just had our fads advertised on primetime tv which parents dumped their kids in front of to raise. Definitely not the same. Not at all.

>>11489156 (OP)
You're right, anon. They should be much more expensive and pay the manufacturers a reasonable first world wage.

>>11490630
The difference would be pocketed by bean counters, it always is. The workers wouldn't see a cent of it.

>>11490630
Is an extra $10 a day going to keep chino off the suicide nets?

>>11489156 (OP)
I wish they made more monochrome ones. I dont like super colorful stuff.

>>11489294
They're based off of elves from nordic folklore.

I do like labubu but I think the baby three dolls are better.

>>11490790
Nice headcanon. They aren't based on anything deeper than what if cute thing but ugly/edgy.

>>11489617
I would like to get these but I fucking can't stand blind boxes.

what's the appeal to these ugly things

>>11491334
Anon...

>>11492352
All nordic folklore is a christian made up headcanon

>>11492352
Inspired by doesn't mean based on. Nordic elves are tall fair people, they aren't ugly little gremlins.

>>11492371
Ok but that's still being based on something

>>11492352
>>11492438
Sounds more like an eastern euripean elf. The word there used to be synonymous with gnome.
