30th Anniversary Beanie Babies
In 2023 Ty announced a new line of beanie babies based on their original classic toys!!
These took the form of "sequels" to original beanies, some almost exactly the same, others with new colourways. They proved to be really popular, and slowly ty began to drop the ties to vintage beanies - by 2024, they were just releasing new beanie babies!!
They took a while to get to NZ but I was really excited to get my hand on them!! I even had someone in the uk ship me a couple in 2023, and when I visited NYC in july 2024, I made it my mission to find as many as possible!
This page documents the initial releases; all the beanies listed as "name ii". I've also been hunting for promo pictures to archive too, as otherwise you can really only find them on social media
current total: 14/??
