Your Guide to the Big LABUBU: Mega, Jumbo, and What to Actually Expect

I remember the first time I saw a huge labubu in person. It wasn't in a store or at a convention. A customer sent me a photo of their haul, and sitting in the middle of their shelf, dwarfing a dozen blind box figures, was this massive, fluffy monster. The scale is just something you can't appreciate from a product photo. And if you're reading this, you're probably feeling that same pull.

But "big" means a few different things in the world of Kasing Lung's Monsters. Before you start hunting, you need to know what you're actually looking for.

When people search for a big labubu, they're usually thinking of one of two things, and they are very different.

First, you have the Jumbo LABUBU Doll or plush. These are the soft, huggable ones. The most common is The Monsters "Rock the Universe" plush, which is about 14 inches (or 36cm) tall. It’s a large labubu doll, for sure, but it’s a plush toy. The quality is fantastic—the fur is soft, the stitching is solid, and it has a nice weight to it. We get these in the shop, and they're always a hit. They're big enough to be a statement piece on your bed or a chair, but not so big they take over the room.

Then you have the MEGA Collection. This is a whole different beast. Think of these like the 400% or 1000% Bearbricks. These are labubu big size vinyl art figures. They aren't soft dolls. They're high-end collectibles, often released in extremely limited quantities. A 400% figure is around 11 inches tall, while a 1000% is a massive 27.5 inches. This is as close as most of us will ever get to a human sized labubu. Owning a MEGA is a serious collector's flex.

And what about a true labubu life size figure? Honestly, those are almost exclusively promotional displays for Pop Mart stores or special events. If you see one for sale, be extremely skeptical. It's likely either not for sale, a very convincing fake, or has a price tag with a shocking number of zeros.

Okay, let's talk numbers. This is where a lot of new collectors get sticker shock. How big are labubus is one question; how much they cost is another.

A jumbo labubu doll like the 14-inch plush usually retails for around $80-$90 USD. That's a fair giant labubu price for an official, high-quality plush of that size. But on the secondary market? I’ve seen the popular big brown labubu (technically Zimomo, but everyone calls him Labubu) plush go for $150 or more, especially right after it sells out.

The MEGA figures are in another stratosphere. A 400% MEGA LABUBU might retail for $150-$200, but it can easily double or triple in value on the aftermarket. The 1000% largest labubu figures? They start at several hundred dollars and can climb into the thousands for rare editions. The MEGA 1000% "Toffee" was a phenomenon—it retailed for around $700 and was hitting $1500+ on resale sites within weeks.

So, is a giant labubu doll worth it?

It depends on what kind of collector you are. If you love the character and want a big, cuddly centerpiece, the 14-inch plush is a fantastic buy. It's adorable, well-made, and captures that mischievous charm we love. It’s also what got so many people hooked, sparking the trend where everyone is drawing LABUBU on everything from coffee cups to sneakers.

But the MEGA vinyl figures? I'm going to be honest: they're not for everyone. They are incredible art pieces, but they are also dust magnets that take up a ton of space. For the price of one 1000% MEGA, you could buy dozens of blind boxes and probably complete several entire series. You have to ask yourself what brings you more joy: one massive statue or a whole family of little monsters? There's no wrong answer, but you need to be honest with yourself before you spend the money.

If you’ve decided to take the plunge, be careful. The high demand for the labubu large size has created a minefield of fakes and scalpers.

The bigger the price tag, the more convincing the fakes become. A giant labubu plush for $30 on a sketchy website is 100% a fake. Don't do it. The vinyls are even harder to spot. If you're buying from a third-party seller, you absolutely need to know what you're looking for. We wrote a whole guide on how to spot fake Labubu that's worth reading before you risk your money.

Also, consider the shipping. One detail that gets overlooked is the box size. The box for a jumbo labubu doll is massive, and shipping can add a significant cost if you're not buying from a retailer with a good shipping policy. We've had to use huge boxes at PopNya just to ship a single plush, and the dimensional weight can be surprisingly expensive.

Ultimately, adding a large labubu to your collection is a huge thrill. They have an undeniable presence. Just go in with your eyes open, know the difference between the types, and be smart about where you buy.
