A Labubu isn’t some high-end collectible made from rare materials. It’s a bug-eyed toy with nine teeth that sells for as little as $15. However, certain versions have ended up fetching five or even six figures at auction.

A few of these were part of fashion or pop culture crossovers, but others were just big, weird or lucky enough to result in a bidding war. Here’s a look at the Labubu dolls that sold for prices no one expected.

Mint-Green Life-Sized Labubu

  • Sold for: over $150,000

Although one might expect to pay considerably more than average for a life-size version of a Labubu, they probably wouldn’t fathom a six-figure price tag. However, a mint-green version of the doll — over four feet tall, with pointy teeth and gremlin features — went for $150,275.51 at a Yongle auction in Beijing, according to Reuters. To be fair, it was a one-of-a-kind, first-generation Labubu.

Don’t Hear, Don’t See, Don’t Speak Labubu Set

  • Sold for: nearly $26,000

This three-figure Labubu set originally sold at Sotheby’s Hong Kong for HK$203,200 (around $25,888 USD), per Prestige Hong Kong’s Instagram account. It had an estimate of HK$40,000 to HK$80,000 ($5,096 to $10,192 USD), but ended up fetching well above what you’d likely expect for an arguably creepy-cute set of sculptures inspired by a Confucian quote.

Brown Life-Sized Labubu

  • Sold for: over $114,000

It didn’t get as much attention as the green one, but a brown life-sized Labubu, at 63 inches tall, still commanded $114,086 at the Yongle International Auction in Beijing, according to ABC17NEWS. The figure isn’t one-of-a-kind, however; it has about 14 clones across the globe.

Labubu and Vans Old Skool Plush

The Labubu and Vans Old Skool plush is about 15 inches tall and looks like it just cruised out of a skate shop. The doll wears a graphic pullover, blue-and-orange cap and brown sneakers, and comes with a tiny skateboard. The face still has that sharp-toothed, gremlin look fans expect. Resale prices average around $3,200, with some listings over $5,400.

Sacai and Seventeen X Labubu

  • Sold for: $31,250

This Labubu blind box drop ran during Pharrell Williams’ JOOPITER auction from June 8-18, 2025. The boxes were sealed, and buyers didn’t know which figure they’d get.Each Labubu had acid-green fur and came dressed in a beige Sacai x Carhartt WIP outfit (except for one secret version with a different outfit, per Stereogum). The dolls sold at auction for between $18,750 and $31,250 each, according to Women’s Wear Daily.
