The Labubu craze is sweeping the globe, and as new products launch in mainland China, fans are clashing in stores to get their hands on the latest blind boxes.
During the recent launch, numerous players attempted to purchase the new releases, resulting in chaotic scenes where some people resorted to violence. Despite the authorities' attempts to restore order, the situation with Labubu remains tumultuous.
One woman was seen occupying a vending machine, blocking others from accessing the QR code, determined to acquire the new Labubu. Witnesses reported that scalpers arrived early, causing frustration among genuine fans.
To make matters worse, there were reports of six individuals beating one person in a bid to grab the highly sought-after blind boxes. Additionally, unauthorized golden Labubu merchandise has surfaced in Shenzhen, prompting the official brand to step up enforcement against counterfeit products.
