Pop Mart has expanded beyond vinyl figures and plush dolls into the world of building blocks — and the results are delightful. THE Monsters building block sets let you construct miniature dioramas featuring Labubu and friends in imaginative settings. Each set is a self-contained scene that doubles as a display piece once assembled.
What Makes Pop Mart Building Blocks Special?
Unlike traditional building block brands that focus on architecture or vehicles, Pop Mart building blocks are all about character and storytelling. Each set creates a themed environment — a juice bar, an underwater scene, a secret forest hideout — populated by tiny Labubu figures. The builds are manageable (typically 200-400 pieces) and the finished products are compact enough for desk display.
Forest Secret Base Series — Juice Maker
The Forest Secret Base series imagines a hidden woodland retreat where THE MONSTERS gather. The Juice Maker set features a whimsical juice bar surrounded by forest details, with a tiny Labubu figure operating the stand.
This set is one of the more substantial builds in the lineup and makes an excellent centerpiece for a building block collection. The forest theme with its lush green tones and organic shapes is a departure from the typical urban or space themes of other building block brands.
Chasing Mermaids Series
The Chasing Mermaids series takes Labubu underwater with three distinct building block sets, each featuring a different sea creature:
Each set represents a different underwater friend — The Tiny Hammerhead, The Tiny Anglerfish, and The Tiny Seahorse. Collect all three to create a complete underwater Labubu world.
Assembly Tips
- Sort pieces by color first — this makes finding the right piece much faster
- Follow the instruction booklet carefully — Pop Mart instructions are clear but some steps are easy to miss
- Use a building mat to keep pieces from rolling off your workspace
- Display on a rotating stand to show off all angles of the finished build
Are These Suitable for Children?
Pop Mart building blocks are rated for ages 6 and up, but the small piece count and character-driven themes make them most appealing to teens and adult collectors. Younger children may need assistance with some of the more intricate assembly steps.
