Most Expensive Labubu: Auction Records and Rare Collector Pieces
A TOYSEZ collector reference for high-value Labubu auction records, rare limited releases, and original TOYSEZ/eBay sale notes.
This update adds a Phillips Hong Kong result from September 28, 2025 and keeps TOYSEZ's original eBay and TOYSEZ sale notes for rare limited Labubu releases.
We did not find a higher 2026 public auction record than the 2025 Yongle sale. Treat these numbers as collector references, not live market quotes.

Why Labubu prices can change so much
Labubu value is not decided by rarity alone. Collectors also look at edition size, artist connection, collaboration partner, original box, card, sealed or opened condition, provenance and whether the sale was public.
A public auction result is stronger than an asking price. A TOYSEZ sale note, eBay sold note, product listing, private sale or old marketplace record can still be useful, but it should be read as a reference rather than a guaranteed current price.
