Monster keyring things I'm seeing everywhere!?

[themumformerlyknownas]

Has anyone else seen them or have DC that have mentioned them? Went into town yesterday with DM and saw lots of these monster type keyrings on handbags. Curious as to what they are 😅feeling very out of touch and my age RN.

Following to find out as well! They keep popping up on my friends Instagram stories and I’m baffled 😅

Do you mean bag charms ? Like a decorative key ring type thing - you can hang them on your bag to change its look / give a bit of interest to a plain bag if you like. Swapping them out to match different looks / outfits etc... They have been around a little while, along with scarves / twillies that you can tie on the bags too.

Google Labubu’s ! A huge craze and basically a money making machine!!

Yeah bag charms is probably a better way of describing them - I mean, I'm familiar with bag charms but these labubu things what @Nevernottrying has shared are creepy

Woah it is a craze you're right - I wonder why I've not seen anything about them on my socials. Although I'm not on TikTok so that might be why I suspect

LABUBUs!!!!

Fake ones are called Lafufus

Its the only trend I have ever been ahead of the curve on 😅
The owner of popmart had made $1.8bn!!!

I swear this board keeps my more up to date than my dd's do.

What age group are aimed for?

They are fugly yet cute though 😂

20-30 something year old women 😅😅😅

Oh wow! I just googled

I thought op meant bag charms too and they can be quite pretty but I just could never justify one.

But these labubus are, erm, interesting

I've been down a rabbit hole - never heard of Pop Mart and now I've spent at least two hours just browsing. The little face grows on you doesn't it. I mean, I'm a nerd at heart and grew up playing Pokemon - never heard of this character though!

Trying to talk my way out of buying one, so it's probably good that they're OOS

I bet if you ask your DDs they'll know about it 😅

Ok I'm back to ashamedly admit I bought one 😅

I keep seeing them on tiktok. People do videos of going to try and find one to buy as they're hard to get. Then unboxing videos. Major craze. Personally I think they're awful but the videos get loads of likes so are obviously popular.

I have one that my sister brought me back from holiday last year. I don't like the fact it's a craze now though as feel a bit conspicuous. I also am surprised that it's a craze, they are odd looking things!

Yeah craze is the right word - some of the footage I've seen online of people fighting in queues to get into the store that sells them. Bonkers! Managed to nab mine via Amazon, though, which I was susprised at!

@themumformerlyknownas was that recently, I wanted to get one for my friends birthday

did you pay a lot?
