Real vs. Fake: Labubu V3 Authentication Guide: Verify Your Big into Energy Series in 5 Steps
Pop Mart’s Labubu 3.0 “Big into Energy” series has collectors buzzing and counterfeiters lurking. Fakes can look convincing at a glance, but they fall short on key details. This guide shows you how to spot fake Labubu, so you can keep your energy-charged collectible genuine, always.
How to Spot Fake Labubu V3
1. Box Hologram
Real: Packaging includes holographic text and grid effect that shines vertically, without visible grid-lines or distortion.
Fake: Often appears one-dimensional, copied with single-layer reflectivity. Shine is patchy or misaligned, and may peel along edges.
2. Box Art Print
Real: Illustrations and logos on the box feature crisp, high-resolution printing in pastel tones consistent with Pop Mart’s official palette. No graininess or soft edges.
Fake: Art may look muted or oversaturated. Under close inspection, prints appear blurred or pixelated, with visible color shifts (e.g. increased greys or yellows).
3. ID Card
Real: Genuine identity cards tend to have lighter, pastel tones with crisp print quality.
Fake: Fakes often use deeper, darker tones and coarser texture - low quality compared to official cards.
4. Face Craftsmanship
Real: Authentic Labubu has exactly nine distinct teeth, a matte peach face tone, neatly shaded blush, and crisp outlines.
Fake: Visible seams with uneven stitches, puckers, or gaps. Paint may bleed or pool, and surface feel tends toward stiff or rough.
5. Foot Logo Stamp
Real: On the bottom of the foot is a deeply engraved “POP MART” logo (and often “© Kasing ”) stamp. Each letter is clearly defined. And some newer V3 editions reveal a UV‑reactive silhouette stamp.
Fake: Stamp is shallow or partially absent. Edges are soft, lettering looks uneven, or missing UV detail.
🎯 Final Tips for Buying Safely
Always buy from trusted sources!
Request clear, close‑up photos showing face, wash label, foot logo, box hologram, and ID card before purchase.
Use a UV light to check for foot stamps on newer V3 editions.
Scan any QR codes carefully, not just visually, to confirm authenticity.
