The Trading Standards team visited several stores in the Blackburn and Darwen area, where they found multiple versions of the Labubu toys that failed to comply with the Toy Safety Regulations 2011. Despite carrying UKCA and CE markings —indicators meant to signify a toy has passed safety standards—the labubu dolls were flagged for a range of safety violations. Officials suspect that many of these products are illegitimately labeled and have not undergone proper safety testing.
