Pop Mart plans to take action against unauthorised use of Labubu's likeness, says no official licensed partners in Singapore
This doll has teeth, as does their distributor - and some companies may be about to find out.
Pop Mart has announced their plans to take action against unauthorised use of Labubu's likeness in promotions done by other brands in Singapore, according to a post on its official Facebook account on Friday (Nov 22).
The company manages the intellectual property (IP) for Labubu and The Monsters, a story series created by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung.
In 2019, blind-box brand Pop Mart entered an exclusive licence agreement with Lung, covering other characters aside from Labubu including Zimomo, Tycoco, Spooky and Pato.
«We have recently discovered instances of unauthorised use of Pop Mart's intellectual property (IP) by certain brands, including Recoil and PlayMade,» the Facebook post said.
