Frequently Asked Questions

A great way to start is with a blind box—like the Exciting Macaron or Big into Energy series—so you get the thrill of the pull and a versatile charm that clips to any bag.

Among collectors and everyday wear, the Pin for Love series (especially Secret Heart), the Exciting Macaron and Big into Energy blind boxes, and the Classic Series Sparkly Plush Pendant are consistently popular. The 10th Anniversary Figure Keychain also has strong fan demand for milestone and display appeal.
Chase and secret variants—like the Pin for Love Secret ! and the Big into Energy ID Chase—are the most sought-after and hardest to find. Pop Land exclusives (e.g. Labubu Mokoko Close to Sweet) and limited drops like the 10th Anniversary keychain are also highly desirable and often resell above retail.
In this guide, the priciest pick is the Pin for Love Series Vinyl Plush Pendant (Secret !) at around $300 retail—it's a high-demand secret variant. Rare chase variants and exclusives can resell for much more on the secondary market; most bag charms in the guide range from about $19 to $300.
