Labubu dolls are at the centre of a major counterfeit crackdown in the UK.

According to new Home Office data, fake Labubu dolls made up 90% of the £3.5 million worth of counterfeit toys seized at the UK border this year. That's 236,000 counterfeit Labubus out of 259,000 total seized, making them the number one fake toy intercepted by authorities.
