Section 1: The Star – Labubu

The mischievous, pointy-eared, and toothed trickster, Labubu is the central figure of “The Monsters.” He is the explorer, the adventurer, and the face of the brand. His boundless curiosity and “ugly-cute” charm have made him a global icon.

Section 2: The Alter-Ego – Zimomo

Often confused with Labubu, **Zimomo** is a fan-favorite character with a distinct personality. He is essentially Labubu wearing a full-body monster suit, which gives him a wilder, more ferocious (yet still lovable) appearance. His popularity often rivals that of Labubu himself.

Section 3: The Core Companions

Kasing Lung’s world is rich with supporting characters that are highly collectible. Here are the other core members of “The Monsters.”

Tycoco

Tycoco is the skeletal member of the group. Often seen with a skull-like face and a mischievous grin, Tycoco brings a touch of spooky, gothic charm to the otherwise whimsical universe.

Spooky

Spooky is the ethereal, ghost-like creature of the group. Often designed with a translucent finish, Spooky floats through the world of “The Monsters” as a shy but playful spirit.

Pato

Pato is the duck-like (or avian) companion. Often seen with a round body and a distinctive beak, Pato provides a softer, more classically “cute” contrast to Labubu’s wild energy.

“The Monsters” FAQ

Are Labubu and Zimomo the same character?

They are related but distinct. Zimomo is best described as Labubu wearing a full-body monster costume, which is why he often appears larger and more “monstrous” than the standard Labubu.

Where did “The Monsters” characters come from?

“The Monsters” universe was first introduced by Kasing Lung as a trilogy of European-style graphic novels and storybooks before they were adapted into world-famous art toys.
