Summary

  • Complete sellout achieved at JOOPITER's collaborative auction featuring 14 custom LABUBU figures
  • Single collectible commands $31,250, establishing new market benchmark for the plush series
  • UNESCO receives full auction proceeds totaling $337,500 through partnership with celebrity ambassadors

The recent JOOPITER auction concluded with complete sales across all offered items, marking a notable outcome for the collaboration between sacai and SEVENTEEN. The event centered around a collection of 14 specially designed LABUBU collectibles, each outfitted in sacai's signature aesthetic.

These collectibles originated from POP MART's collaboration with How2work, featuring Kasing Lung's The Monsters series in the Green Edition format. Thirteen of the figures appeared in matching tan onesies, each distinguished by unique gold and silver neck accessories corresponding to individual SEVENTEEN members. The fourteenth piece presented a different approach entirely, showcasing a secret colorway that drew inspiration from a particular sacai garment favored by Pharrell Williams.

The auction's peak performance came from a single LABUBU figure that sold for $31,250, surpassing previous sales records for items from this collectible line. This transaction established a new standard for LABUBU pricing in the auction market.

Beyond the main collectible series, bidders pursued additional items including a J-17-S T-shirt bearing SEVENTEEN's signatures and a custom sacai leather jacket with direct ties to the group's "Bad Influence" music video production.

The financial outcome totaled $337,500 across all lots. This sum will transfer entirely to UNESCO, facilitated through the organization's existing partnerships with both SEVENTEEN, who serve as UNESCO Goodwill Ambassadors for Youth, and Pharrell Williams, recognized as UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador for Arts Education and Entrepreneurship.

The results reflect current market dynamics surrounding limited-edition collectibles, particularly those with entertainment industry connections. The collaboration merged fashion design elements from sacai with the established popularity of both SEVENTEEN and the LABUBU character franchise.
