The point the article is trying to make is that Labubus were an abnormally short lived fad, and that’s their attempt at an explanation.
I don’t know if that exactly explains the short life of the Labubu fad, but I find the disappearance of shared culture quite evident these days.
- Ekaros 10mo agoI think viral marketing has limits. There is only so many times you want to see the same thing. And on other hand I think cycle of competing products is faster than ever. Get a trend going on and other companies cashing on it will happen very fast. Thus lowering value of original and flooding the market it mad rush.

I feel like furbies, say, were if anything a bit shorter. Possibly people were expecting Labubus to be like beanie babies, but really beanie babies were the exception in lasting abnormally long for a toy fad.
