How popular was the Violent Bear back in the day! The giant version, as tall as a person, could be sold for hundreds of thousands, a must-have for trendsetters, and collaboration pieces were fought over. And now? Gathering dust in stores, priced like cabbage in the second-hand market. This thing called trendy toys is a treasure when following the trend, but once it's out of fashion, it's worthless.

Pop Mart is now crazily collaborating and creating limited editions, with hidden Labubu pieces selling for tens of thousands, just like the Violent Bear back then. But the bubble will eventually burst — scalpers hoard stock, and the novices take over, in the end, who ends up paying the price?

The fate of trendy toys: explosive popularity → speculation → obsolescence → eye-rolling.

Looking back, isn't the NFT market facing the same fate? Furthermore, the hot topic #MEME won't last long through its entire lifecycle!

For those who are obsessed with Labubu, it's time to pull back.
