The Pink Labubu Buyer’s Guide: Which One You Actually Want and What It Costs

I opened my DMs this morning to three different people asking the same question: "Do you have the pink Labubu in stock?" It sounds simple enough, but in the world of Kasing Lung’s monsters, "pink" can mean about four different things, and the price difference between them is massive.

If you are hunting for a pink labubu, you are likely looking for one of two specific figures: the pastel "Lychee Berry" from the Macaron series or the hot pink labubu known as Mokoko. I’ve been buying and selling these since the first drop, and I’ve seen the market go from "cute toy on a shelf" to "sold out in seconds" chaos.

Here is the breakdown of what you are actually looking at, what you should pay, and how to avoid getting scammed with a la boo boo pink fake (yes, I see that spelling in my search logs constantly).

When people say they want the mini labubu pink pendant, 90% of the time they mean the Lychee Berry from the "Tasty Macarons" vinyl face plush series. This is the light pink labubu that started the craze.

It features a soft, pastel pink fur, a cream-colored face, and white teeth. It’s arguably the most popular colorway alongside the light blue labubu (Sea Salt Coconut).

Here is the hard truth about the price: Retail was around $17 USD. Today? You are lucky to find a real pink labubu in this style for under $45, and I’ve seen them hit $80+ on bad days.

If you want something louder, you are looking for Mokoko. This is the pink and red labubu that often confuses new collectors. Mokoko is technically a different character in The Monsters universe, but she looks exactly like a hot pink labubu with one major difference: she has a heart-shaped nose and usually comes with a little red bow.

Mokoko is generally more expensive and harder to find in the US market because many of her releases are Pop Mart exclusives in specific Asian regions.

Are you looking for the keychain or the huggable version? The big pink labubu usually refers to the 38cm or the massive 100cm plush.

I recently handled a 38cm Mokoko Fall in Wild edition, and the quality is insane compared to the blind boxes. The vinyl face is softer, and the skeleton inside allows for better posing. However, shipping these is a nightmare. If you buy a labubu pink one in the 38cm size, expect to pay a premium on shipping because collectors (like me) refuse to squash the box.

The newer V2 "Have a Seat" series complicated things. There isn't a straightforward "pink" one in this set like there was in V1.

There is a labubu pink and yellow style figure in this series called "Sisi" (yellow fur, pinkish ears/blush), and "Dada," which is a dusty rose/brown color. If you want that true, distinct pink, you are still better off hunting for the V1 Macaron series.

I see a lot of collectors torn between the pink labubus and the light blue labubu (Sea Salt Coconut).

From a seller's perspective, the pink moves faster. It’s the "girly" aesthetic that fits the bag charm trend perfectly. However, the blue one tends to stay cleaner. The light pink fur on the Lychee Berry attracts dust like a magnet. If you plan to actually wear it on your bag daily, the blue or the darker "Toffee" colors hold up better against city grime.

I get asked about the secret labubu pink often. In the Macaron V1 series, the secret is actually the "Chestnut Cocoa" (a dark brown/reddish color). In the V2 series, the secret is DuoDuo. There is currently no "Secret" that is strictly pink, so don't let a reseller try to upcharge you by claiming the standard Lychee Berry is a "secret rare." It’s a regular edition, just a very popular one.

If you are looking for a pink little boo boo (another nickname I hear constantly) for a child, please be careful. The prices have skyrocketed.

* Labubu original pink (Macaron V1): $45 - $80 USD * Mokoko (38cm): $180 - $250 USD * Labubu original rosa (Fall in Wild Pendant): $60 - $90 USD

Since the pink one is the most coveted, it is also the most counterfeited. When I inspect inventory for my LABUBU collection, I look at the feet tag first.

On the real ones, the tag text is crisp and the stitching is tight. On fakes, the "POP MART" text often looks slightly bled or the font weight is wrong. Also, check the blush on the vinyl face. The labubu plush pink fakes often have very heavy, circular airbrushing on the cheeks that looks like clown makeup. The real ones have a subtle, gradient fade.

If you are dying for a pink one, the V1 Lychee Berry is iconic, but it is currently overpriced. If you can wait, Pop Mart does occasional restocks, though they sell out in minutes.

For those who just want the vibe without the $80 price tag, I honestly recommend looking at the labubu pink and yellow "Sisi" from the V2 series. It’s cheaper, easier to find, and the quality of the V2 body (which sits down!) is actually superior to the V1.
