Labubu is the latest toy craze that has taken over TikTok, Instagram, and even fashion streets around the world. But one question many people are asking is whether the real Labubu head turn? Let’s find out the answer and learn how to check if your Labubu is real or fake.
What is Labubu?
Labubu is a popular character toy created by artist Kasing Lung and made famous by the brand POP MART. It belongs to a series called The Monsters. Labubu has a unique look — big eyes, pointy ears, lots of teeth, and a mischievous smile.
There are hundreds of different Labubu versions – from small blind box figures to big collectible ones. Some rare Labubu toys are sold for thousands of dollars online.
Do Real Labubu Head Turn?
Yes, many real Labubu toys can turn their heads. Some heads can move a little, while others turn fully. However, not all versions move the same way.
Why Some Labubu Heads Don’t Move
- Tight stitching in newer toys can make the head harder to move.
- Quality control (QC) can vary — some heads are loose, others are stiff.
- Fake Labubu toys usually have poor quality and the head might not move at all.
Why Head Movement Matters
Fans and collectors love real Labubu toys because of their fun design and quality build. A head that turns adds more life and play value. It’s also one of the signs that help tell if the toy is genuine or fake.
Conclusion
Yes, many real Labubu toys have heads that turn or tilt. But not all do – it depends on the design and how tightly it’s made. A moving head is often a sign of a genuine toy, while fakes usually have stiff or poorly attached heads.
If you are buying a Labubu, look for:
- 9 teeth
- Quality face paint
- QR code card
- Proper packaging
- Smooth head movement (if possible)
