Labubus are emblematic of overconsumption in 2025 but they're also impossible to produce without a high technology base. You need to mine oil, refine it, produce plastic, produce polyester fur, produce vinyl, produce pigments, produce injection moulding and all the automated machinery around it, which means silicon crystals, wafer production, photo etching, and so on. You need to be able to produce all these components and you need custom machines and skilled workers to construct a labubu. It's a worthless garbage toy but it's also a monumental challenge to build.
