Glasgow Parents Warned over Fake Labubu Dolls as Kids Left 'Heartbroken'

  • Glasgow trading standards seized counterfeit Labubu toys lacking safety labels from four city stores amid rising fake toy concerns.
  • The surge in counterfeit toys stems from thousands of knockoffs produced in China, where authorities shut down plants and seized over 20,000 fakes.
  • Labubu dolls, originally sold at about £37 and featured at Paris Fashion Week, now resell for £105 to £229, increasing demand and counterfeit issues.
  • Trading standards manager Graeme Paton warned counterfeit toys pose dangers like chemical exposure and choking hazards and urged consumers to stay vigilant.
  • Authorities and consumer groups advise buying Labubu only from verified retailers and reporting concerns via Consumer Advice Scotland's weekday helpline, 9am-5pm.
