New Ty range for 2020 – Squish a Boos!

Wednesday, June 10th, 2020

If you haven’t already, check out the new Ty Squish a Boos!

Ty announced these earlier in the year, but they are now apparently available in store. The trouble is, they’re really hard to find! I’m not sure if it’s just a UK thing, but they seem to be unavailable everywhere I’ve looked!

At the moment, I’ve heard about nine different Squish a Boos. They are all basically Squish a Boo versions of previous Beanie Boos that have been released over the years.

So far, I know about Kiki, Giselle, Dotty, Paris, Owen, Slush, Zoey, Heather and Fantasia.

Squish a Boos are a kind of squishy cushion-like toy, a bit like the non-Ty range, Squishmallows. In fact, they are very similar.

Have you seen Squish a Boos on the shelves yet?

Finally, the first Katy pre-orders are out!

Saturday, May 23rd, 2020

After what seems like forever, it appears the first Katy Beanie Boos have been shipped out!

Katy was first expected to be available in March, but from what I gather, there was a delay on the shipment of the Katy pre-orders due to the current coronavirus situation. However, it appears people are now starting to receive them, which is fantastic news!

Katy was first announced at the beginning of the year to raise funds for WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service Inc.) in order to help the rescue efforts for the wildlife caught up in the devastating wildfires in Australia.

If you pre-ordered Katy, have you received her yet?

New Beanie Baby – Barker

Tuesday, March 24th, 2020

With everything that’s going on at the moment, it’s nice to hear the news that there is a brand new Beanie Baby available!

His name is Barker and here is the little guy pictured below. Isn’t he adorable?!

Barker is a brand new dog in the Beanie Babies line. He is similar in appearance to the Beanie Boos (in fact, I thought he was one at first!) with his large, glittery gold eyes.

Barker appears to be a spaniel-type dog, possible a cocker spaniel, and has lovely floppy ears that are slightly furrier than the rest of him.

Barker’s Birthday is on 24th January and his poem reads:

It’s a known fact that dogs make good best friends.
There is no doubt we’re pals to the end!

Do you have Barker in your collection yet?

Upcoming Beanie Baby – Frederick

Monday, March 2nd, 2020

On Friday, I posted an article about the latest Beanie Baby bear I had spotted, called Kodi. He is a black bear expected to be released in Spring this year. Well, I have just found out about another Beanie Baby to join Kodi this Spring.

Frederick the fox is another new face due to make an appearance around a similar time to Kodi.

So far, I’ve been unable to find out any details about his poem or Birthday.

I’m sure this little guy will be just as adorable in reality. I can’t wait for all these new Beanie Babies and Boos to appear!

What do you think of Frederick?

Upcoming Beanie Baby Alert – Kodi the Bear!

Friday, February 28th, 2020

Well there have been a few new exciting releases recently with the latest Beanie Boos like Spirit the German Shepherd Dog and Phoenix the Fennec Fox. Also, five new European moose Beanie Boos were spotted on the Ty Calendar called Harald, Väinö, Rasmus, Birger and Egert. There were also three rabbit Beanie Babies called Ryley, Sherbet and Buster. These are just a handful of the latest releases/upcoming releases!

Now I’ve heard about another new Beanie Baby who is just too cute for words!

Meet Kodi.

Kodi is a gorgeous black bear with highlights of dark brown. His glittery gold eyes pop out from the black of his fur and he has a lighter brown muzzle, light brown feet and light brown inner ears.

So far I don’t have any information on his poem or Birthday but I will update that as soon as I find out.

Isn’t this little black bear adorable?!

Loy the Akita Dog

Thursday, February 20th, 2020

Recently, we discovered that there are five upcoming European exclusive moose Beanie Boos. These were Rasmus (Denmark), Väinö (Finland), Harald (Norway), Birger (Sweden) and Egert (Estonia).

Well, dog lovers will be excited about this new, country exclusive Beanie Boo!

This is Loy.

Loy is an Akita dog exclusively available in Japan. He is a gorgeous orange/brown colour with golden, sparkly eyes and a white face and belly.

His Birthday is on 10th November and his poem reads:

No truer companion will you ever find
I’m loyal and loving to all of mankind.

Akita dogs are a breed of Japanese dog well equipped for the mountainous regions of Japan. They are a large breed and normally have a dominant temperament, so are not recommended for those without experience of the breed.

Below is an example of what a real Akita would look like.

Loy however, requires no training whatsoever and is just adorable!

So far, I’m not sure if Loy has been released. I’ve tried looking on the Ty Japan website, but I can’t find him on there, so I’m assuming he probably isn’t yet. Please, let me know if you find out otherwise.

What do you think of Loy?

New Flippables – Jameela

Thursday, February 13th, 2020

When the camel Beanie Boo, Jamal was first released, I was really excited as he looked so cool and different from other Beanie Boos that were available. At first, he was only exclusively available to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), but later became widely available and could be found in both small and medium sizes.

Now I have just learnt that there is a new camel Flippables joining him!

Jameela was just shown in a picture on Ty’s Facebook page alongside Jamal “playing in the snow” in Finland.

I’m not sure if Jameela is an UAE exclusive only, or if she will be available for general release yet. So far, she only appears to be available on the UAE Toys R’ Us website. We’ll have to wait and see if she’ll have a worldwide release.

What do you think of Jameela?

Ty Puffies

Tuesday, February 11th, 2020

We have been treated to a few new and upcoming releases from Ty. There have been Beanie Babies like Buckley and Kookoo, Beanie Boos such as Spirit and Phoenix, and the new Flippables, Confetti and Cosmo.

Well now, Ty are releasing a brand new range!

They are called Ty Puffies and so far nine have been announced and most of them resemble Beanie Boos that are already in existence.

The Puffies are similar to the Beanie Ballz that have since been discontinued, in that they are weighted at the bottom so they always land on their feet.

The nine that have been announced are:

Harmonie

Harmonie is a white unicorn with rainbow coloured spots and multicoloured, sparkly hooves, horn and inner ears. She resembles the Beanie Boo, Harmonie, although she doesn’t share her twisted gold and blue horn.

Prince

Prince is a blue husky with a white face. He also has a Beanie Boo counterpart called Prince, who is expected to be released any day!

Coconut

Now this is a Puffie that doesn’t have a Beanie Boo look-a-like, although there is an older Beanie Boo monkey called Coconut. This version of Coconut has orange fur and purple hands and feet.

Waddles

Waddles is a cute little black and white penguin. He is named after the Beanie Boo, Waddles. This version has a rounded body and little blue feet.

Owen

Owen is a rainbow coloured owl with a white face and a sparkly pink beak. He is based on the Beanie Boo, Owen, who was released in 2017.

Tabitha

Tabitha is based on the Beanie Boo cat called Tabitha, although the Puffies version wears a cute, sparkly pink bow on top of her head.

Rainbow

Rainbow was a multicoloured, pastel poodle Beanie Boo. Now she is back as a Puffie! Isn’t she just adorable?!

Fantasia

Fantasia is the last Puffie to be based on a previous Beanie Boo, also named Fantasia. In fact, Fantasia is also a brand new, upcoming Flippable!

Colby

Finally, the last Puffie (and my personal favourite) is Colby. He is a cute little purple and white mouse who doesn’t have a Beanie Boo equivalent.

What do you think of the new Ty Puffies?

Spirit the German Shepherd Beanie Boo Spotted on Amazon!

Wednesday, February 5th, 2020

Last week I wrote an article about three dog Beanie Boos that are expected to be released soon. Well it appears that at least one of them is now available!

Spirit the German Shepherd dog is available on Amazon.com!

His Birthday is on 15th May and his poem reads:

I’m a strong German Shepherd, both smart and bold
With tremendous spirit, and a heart of gold.

There are two other dog Beanie Boos that are due to follow soon, Camilla the pink poodle and Prince the blue husky.

Have you spotted Spirit, Camilla or Prince yet?

Unicorns, Unicorns and More Unicorns!

Friday, January 31st, 2020

Unicorn lovers, rejoice! Coming to stores either next month or in March are two new Flippables and one new Beanie Boo!

This month, we’ve already been spoilt with Darling, the brand new Valentine’s Day unicorn Beanie Boo. So who else is joining her?

First, we have Fantasia.

Now don’t confuse her with the 2015 unicorn Beanie Boo, also called Fantasia, although I think the two could be related. This Flippables Fantasia is covered in reversible sequins that change from pink to gold.

The next Flippables on the list is Cosmo.

Cosmo has reversible sequins are arranged in a rainbow-coloured check pattern. In fact, everything about her is colourful, from her rainbow glittery eyes, to her multicoloured hooves.

Finally, there is Gumball.

Gumball is a pink unicorn Beanie Boo with patches of hot pink, turquoise and grey. Her colouring really does look like it could be on a gumball.

So there you have it! All three unicorns to look out for over the next couple of months. I know my niece will love these when she hears about them (she ADORES unicorns!).

Which one do you like best?
