The globally renowned art toy brand POP MART has captivated collectors worldwide, with the \u201cLABUBU\u201d series being especially beloved for its adorable designs.

The \u201cPOP MART THE MONSTERS (LABUBU) Big into Energy Series Plush Pendant [Assorted Box]\u201d is a blind box item, providing the excitement of not knowing its contents until opened and encouraging the desire to collect the full lineup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside each box is a striking 17cm LABUBU plush pendant characterized by a unique gradient color. Thanks to its unusual design and the world it represents, it sold out rapidly on the official website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. \u201cBig into Energy\u201d Logo<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

On the front of the box, the REAL \u201cBig into Energy\u201d lettering shows a woven, three-dimensional texture and a noticeable luster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"POP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The FAKE version, by contrast, features a flat, standard print lacking both this texture and shininess. Zooming in on the print reveals these differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. \u201cTHE MONSTERS\u201d Logo<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"POP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Differences also appear in the printing method, color, and letter shapes of the \u201cTHE MONSTERS\u201d logo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"POP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With REAL versions, the spacing between letters is uniform and precisely balanced, reflecting high graphic accuracy. FAKES often show cramped lettering with little space, often due to poor replication of the white outline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. \u201cPOP MART\u201d Logo<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"POP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

REAL versions of the \u201cPOP MART\u201d logo have straight, sharpened edges and are printed clearly, while FAKES tend to have uneven, bumpy edges, indicating lower print quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. \u201cWARNING\u201d Label on the Box Back<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"POP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"POP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cWARNING\u201d mark and printing on the box\u2019s back differ as well. On the REAL, the warning outline is printed in gray with even and precise lines, and the exclamation point is centered neatly within the triangle. The FAKE uses a blue outline and features misaligned or distorted exclamation marks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"POP<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Japanese character \u201c\u4e0e\u201d in REAL boxes has the third stroke passing through the second, while in FAKES, this stroke does not cross the second.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Internal Structure via X-Ray<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

X-ray imaging can reveal distinctions invisible to the naked eye, especially in the attachment parts of the hands. In the REAL product, the hand connection has a folded-over tip, whereas the FAKE version does not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
