Labubus are still going strong, but these days you’re lucky if you can snag one right as a new collection drops online. A digital “how-to” economy on snagging these fuzzy little monsters has sprung up seemingly overnight, with creators who have cracked the code on how to buy them before they (inevitably) sell out in minutes sharing their Pop Mart app “hacks” and tricks online. But there has to be an easier way to snag the hottest accessory of the summer, right?
The good news is that even though Pop Mart drops have gotten increasingly more competitive, StockX and Walmart are teaming up to drop authenticated, sold-out Labubus for a limited time. From now through Friday, August 22, Labubu stock drops will go live daily on Walmart.com, each blind box and little monster verified for authenticity by online resale marketplace StockX (so you can avoid pulling a dreaded bootleg, or “Lafufu” as they’ve come to be called).

Earlier this year, Labubus were the cause of a record-breaking day for StockX after the “The Monsters: Big Into Energy Series” dropped. As the dolls sold out in record time, resellers saw a day of performance so massive that the platform says they unseated the PS5 and the Barbie Signature LeBron James Doll as the top traded product. This eight-day event actually continues StockX’s ongoing partnership with Walmart, expanding their selection of limited-edition kicks and streetwear (and of course, Labubus) to the superstore shoppers.
Walmart’s daily drops of StockX Pop Mart inventory includes best-selling individual blind boxes as well as multi-packs of sealed cases of Labubu vinyl figures, along with the buzzy, pre-revealed plush keychains. The assortments are limited, and these creepy-cute collectibles are moving quickly, so expect these daily drops to sell out fast.

This isn’t the first time Walmart has dipped their toes into the resale market, and another new partnership getting some attention recently has been with Rebag, offering pre-loved luxury accessories along with coveted designer handbags. While the “Wirkin” (Walmart Birkin dupe) was trending for a while (though that sold out and you can now find a similar dupe on Amazon), you can actually get your own, real Birkin at Walmart.
