How to Buy Labubu in 2026 — Complete Bot Guide

The Labubu Phenomenon

Labubu by Pop Mart has become one of the hottest collectibles of 2025-2026. These designer toys sell out in 60-90 seconds on every drop, with resale prices reaching 2-3x retail. The Exciting Macaron and Big Into Energy series are particularly sought after.

Where Labubu Drops

The primary source is popmart.com/us for US buyers. Pop Mart also sells through Urban Outfitters and Hot Topic occasionally. The hottest releases go through Pop Now (app-only), which uses a virtual blind box system.

Regular web drops and restocks are what Kestrel AIO targets. Restocks typically happen on Friday mornings, though this is not guaranteed.

Using Kestrel for Pop Mart

Kestrel's Pop Mart module handles the two-click ATC flow (expand options panel, then confirm), queue handling, and restock monitoring. Use residential proxies to bypass the triple anti-bot layer (Cloudflare, Arkose, and PerimeterX).

BUY NOW mode skips the cart entirely for faster single-item purchases. Set quantity to your desired amount (max 6 per customer per drop).

Resale Strategy

Standard blind boxes retail for $15-30 and resell for $25-60. The real money is in chase and secret variants, which can command $100-500+. Sell standard items within one week — prices stabilize quickly. Hold chase variants for maximum value.

eBay and Mercari are the best platforms for Pop Mart resale, as StockX and GOAT focus primarily on sneakers.

Getting Started

Set up Kestrel AIO with residential proxies, create a Pop Mart account, and enable restock monitoring. When a drop is announced, create tasks with the product URL and let Kestrel handle the rest. At $29.99/month, a single successful Labubu cop pays for the subscription.
