Ty Classic Shadow The Cat Restoration Project!

Thursday, October 23rd, 2025

Hi everyone! I bought this Ty Classic Shadow off Vinted for only £1! She was in need of a bit of TLC (as stated by the seller) so I took pity on her and bought her as a restoration project!

Ty Classic Shadow Tuxedo Cat Restoration Project

She seriously needed a good clean! Her fur had lost it’s shine and felt grubby, her white face and paws looked dirty and were no longer soft and her belly needed a good scrub!

Her paws also had a weird, knobbly feel to them and overall, she needed a good fluffing up!

First, I soaked her in a mixtures of vinegar and bicarbonate of soda to try and get rid of any smells and soften her fur a little.

After rinsing the vinegar-bicarb mix off her, I filled up the tub again and gave her a lovely bubble bath and scrubbed her fur clean. Then I rinsed all the soap out!

Ty Classic Shadow Cat Restoration Project Shower Time

I dried Shadow as best as I could with a hairdryer and fluffed her up several times.

I then left her in a warm place to dry fully before fluffing her up some more to try and restore the softness to her fur!

Could Shadow Be Cleaned Up And Restored?

See for yourself! Here is Shadow after a thorough cleaning and brushing!

Ty Classic Shadow Restoration Project All Clean

Her fur is now silky, her paws and face and back to their original colour and now they are much softer!

I discovered after cleaning her up that she was actually missing a whisker. Sadly, her already faded tush tag could not be saved and it actually faded further, but I’m glad I could save Shadow and bring back her sparkle!

I also filmed this Beanie restoration project and it is available on YouTube if you wish to watch it!

For full instructions on cleaning Beanies, see my “How To Clean Beanie Babies” guide here!

Have you restored any Beanies (or other plushies) back to their former glory? If so I’d love to hear about your own restoration projects! Leave a comment below!

New Peter Rabbit Beanie Baby And Beanie Bouncer!

Monday, October 13th, 2025

Hi everyone!

Calling all Peter Rabbit fans….have you seen the new upcoming Beanies?! There is a brand new Peter Rabbit Beanie Baby and Beanie Bouncer due at the end of October 2025!

Below is a glimpse of the new Peter Rabbit Beanie Baby!

Peter Rabbit Beatrix Potter Ty Beanie Baby 2025There have been a few variations of Peter Rabbit over the years, from The Tale of Peter Rabbit with blue or gold thread, to the movie version.

The links below are affiliate links. If you purchase something by clicking through one of the links below, we may receive a small commission. This doesn’t cost you anything additional and helps to fund this site.

This version actually looks pretty adorable with realistic rabbit-like eyes and his cute little blue jacket! I have actually pre-ordered the Peter Rabbit Beanie Baby from The Magical Gift Boutique! When he arrives, we’ll take a closer look at him in real-life!

Next, let’s take a look at the Peter Rabbit Beanie Bouncer.

Peter Rabbit Beatrix Potter Ty Beanie Bouncer 2025

He has the cutest face and I love his long ears!

I couldn’t bring myself to bounce this Beanie Bouncer though, I’d be totally afraid of ruining him!

He is also available at The Magical Gift Boutique for pre-order! I also have him on pre-order so I’ll post up some pictures of him when he arrives here!

Where can I buy the new 2025 Peter Rabbit Beanie Baby and Beanie Bouncer from?

They are both available for pre-order from The Magical Gift Boutique and are currently due to be released on 24th October.

The Peter Rabbit Beanie Baby is available for pre-order here!

The Ty Website Has Gone!

Monday, October 6th, 2025

Where has Ty.com gone?!

Hi everyone! Something very odd has happened….Ty’s official main website and shopping website have both gone!

It all started when a new official Beanie Bouncers page, called Ty Tube, appeared that focuses on Beanie Bouncers and activities. Something that Ty call their new “entertainment website”.

So where has the official Ty website gone?

Well, it’s all a bit of a mystery! No one seems to know for sure, although there are theories being put about.

Now ty.com simply redirects to Ty Tube and shop.ty.com has no ability to purchase anything anymore, it just invites you to visit Ty Tube.

Everyone is a bit confused and frustrated as the Ty website was the only place they bought new Beanie Boos from!

Will the online store come back?

We are all a little in the dark about it. The replies from Ty about their website have been met with variations of the same reply:

“The shop is currently unavailable. Check with your local retailers for Beanies near you”.

Does this mean that the store will return? The fact that they have added that it’s “currently unavailable” seems to have left it open that the website could return, but really it’s anyone’s guess.

What are the theories surrounding the website’s disappearance?

Some suggest that the website could have been hacked. I’m not sure about this one as surely there should be some sort of public statement by now.

Others say it’s a push towards Beanie Bouncers. A possibility, especially with their focus on the market rate of value.

It could also be a publicity stunt for social media engagement. Ty aren’t strangers when it comes to publicity stunts. Remember when The End bear came out to mark the end of the Beanie Babies line, but then The Beginning came out?

There is also the possibility that they have other ideas in the pipeline that none of us are aware of yet. Again, possible.

Maybe they are literally just doing maintenance work on the website?

I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

The links below are affiliate links. If you purchase something by clicking through one of the links below, we may receive a small commission. This doesn’t cost you anything additional and helps to fund this site.

What does this mean for those who rely on the Ty website?

At this current moment, no one seems to have any information on if/when the actual website will return. This is frustrating to those that frequently use and rely on the website so I hope it gets sorted soon for you all.

I’m in the UK so am unable to order through Ty’s website directly, but I feel for those who regularly use the Ty website, as this is likely to be a huge inconvenience right now, especially with Christmas coming up.

There will be those who live near a Ty retailer, but not everyone does. It’s worth seeing if any retailers have websites to order from in the meantime. Amazon also have a selection of Beanies, although they may not have all the newest releases.

What do you think of the Ty website disappearing? Will this affect you? What is your theory? Leave a comment below!

Ty Tube – The New Official Ty Website!

Wednesday, October 1st, 2025

Ty Tube Beanie Bouncers Website

Hi everyone!

Ty has launched a new official website – Ty Tube!

Ty Tube appears to be solely centred around Beanie Bouncers and features YouTube videos and YouTube Shorts videos based on Beanie Bouncers for you to watch through the website

There is a list of the Beanie Bouncers that have been released, plus a collection/wish list feature.

The fun part of Ty Tube is the various challenges that you can try using Beanie Bouncers with your friends. Each challenge has a difficulty level and a check box for when you have completed it.

Ty Tube Beanie Bouncers Challenges

Ty Tube features data on the current Beanie Bouncers market and whether your Beanie Bouncers have gone up or down in value.

There is also a “wall” space called Ty Talk with a “Quote Of The Day” at the top, where you can post your latest thoughts, pictures and questions on Beanie Bouncers!

Have you visited Ty Tube yet? What did you think of it? Leave a comment below!

2025 Beanie Boos and Bellies LEAKS! Including Halloween and Christmas!

Monday, August 18th, 2025

2025 Beanie Boo and Beanie Bellies LEAKS Halloween Christmas

Hi everyone! Who else is excited to see some of the new Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies? Also, are you ready for the 2025 Halloween and Christmas Beanie Boos?

I am incredibly sad that the Halloween Beanie Boos will NOT be coming to the UK this year! I find this so frustrating as a collector. The Halloween release is my absolute favourite time of the year, so I’m seriously disappointed about this. As far as I know, the Christmas Beanies will still be arriving to the UK.

Anyway, rant over. Time to see some Beanies!

You may or may not have already come across these already, but for those who haven’t, let’s take a look at the new Beanies! So far, I only know the names for the Christmas range. I’m not aware of any official names or Birthdays for the rest (with one possible exception), so please let me know if you know any! And here they are!…

Pink Poodle

Pink Poodle Ty Beanie Boo 2025 New Release

This adorable pink poodle Beanie Boo reminds me of either bubblegum or candy floss. I love her sweet colouring!

Her blue eyes go well with the pink of her textured fur.

Orange Fox

Orange Fox 2025 Ty Beanie Boo New Release

This gorgeous orange fox Beanie Boo looks like she will be the perfect companion for Meadow!

She also looks a little bit like Faye without a unicorn horn.

Either way, she is so cute!

Grey Hippo

Grey Hippo Ty Beanie Bellies 2025 New Release

A new addition to the Beanie Bellies range, this hippo looks so huggable!

She almost looks like she is an almost grey-purple colour, so it will be interesting to see what she’s like in reality.

Capybara

Capybara Ty Beanie Bellies 2025 New Release

FINALLY! A capybara Beanie!

I am so excited for this addition to the Beanie Bellies range! I have been wanting a capybara Beanie for so long!

He just looks adorable with his little hands and chonky body!

HALLOWEEN BEANIES

Witch Spider

Grey Witch Spider Purple Hat Ty Beanie Boo 2025 New Release

This little spider is so cute! From her round body to her green eyes, not to mention her fuzzy legs and adorable purple witch’s hat!

I think she is definitely one of my favourites this season!

Halloween Cat

Halloween Black Cat Ty Beanie Boo 2025 New Release

If you follow these posts, you’ll probably know that I absolutely adore cats. To the point that I have a collection of random cat-related plushies, cat ornaments, etc.

Needless to say, I’m always happy to see a new cat Beanie! I also love that this year’s Halloween cat is a tuxedo cat!

This cat has a similar appearance to a 2015 Beanie Boo cat named Frights. She even has the same orange and green eye colour combination.

Bat (Batrick?)

Bat Batrick Batsie Ty Beanie Bellies 2025 New Release

This little cutie Bat appears to be based on the previous Beanie Bellies key clip called Alfred.

I have seen this bat listed as Batrick on some websites, but if anyone could confirm the name, that would be awesome!

I sooo want this bat. He is so cool!

CHRISTMAS BEANIES

Snaps the Gingerbread Man

Gingerbread Man Ty Christmas Beanie Boo 2025 New Release

How cute is this little guy?

Ty have made a few gingerbread men, but Snaps may actually may be my favourite one! The only exception being Crispin from the Beanie Bellies range, who was just perfection.

I love his little candy buttons!

Dave the Snowman

Snowman Ty Christmas Beanie Boo 2025 New Release

Ty usually release a snowman for Christmas, and this year is no exception.

Dave has the most adorable bobble hat and colourful buttons! And you can’t forget his carrot nose and stick arms!

Comet the Christmas Alien

Comet Green Alien Christmas Ty Beanie Boo 2025 New Release

Comet the bright green alien is certainly a new variety of Beanie Boo for the Christmas season! We usually get snowmen, reindeer and gingerbread men, but never aliens!

I seriously love this little guy, in fact he’s “out of this world!”. Sorry, I had to.

And finally…

Snowdrop the White Reindeer

White Reindeer Ty Christmas Beanie Boo 2025 New Release

I really love this new reindeer! Snowdrop’s green eyes are so striking against her white fur and she has the cutest red nose!

Her hooves and antlers are glittery red and green.

My thoughts…

There are some great additions to the Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies range this season. I especially love ALL of the Halloween releases!

For my favourite Christmas release, I’m SLIGHTLY leaning towards Snowdrop the white reindeer.

I love both of the new non-seasonal Beanie Bellies, especially the capybara as I’ve been wanting Ty to release a capybara for aaaaages!

Also, I’ve noticed that The Magical Gift Boutique have the Christmas Beanies as “Launching Soon” on their website! So keep an eye out for them!

Friday, August 15th, 2025

Ty Toffee Brown Papillon Dog Beanie Bellies 2025

The links below are affiliate links. If you purchase something by clicking through one of the links below, we may receive a small commission. This doesn’t cost you anything additional and helps to fund this site.

Hi everyone! It’s been way too long, but I’m so excited that there will be a new Beanie Bellies arriving in the UK soon! Toffee the papillon dog will shortly be making an appearance and I’m so glad that my favourite go-to place for Beanies, The Magical Gift Boutique, will be stocking her!

Toffee is absolutely gorgeous, with dark brown fur making the perfect contrast with her toffee-brown face and belly. Her sparkly golden eyes really pop. But her most striking feature is her fluffy black ears, flecked with rainbow colours!

She has the signature Beanie Bellies paw pads (please Ty, never get rid of the toe beans! They’re adorable!) and a boopable brown nose.

Toffee is available to pre-order from The Magical Gift Boutique website and she is due to be shipped out in mid-September!

Will you be adding the adorable Toffee to your collection?

The Spring/Easter 2025 Beanie Boos are the best ever!

Monday, February 10th, 2025

Spring Easter Ty Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies 2025

The links below are affiliate links. If you purchase something by clicking through one of the links below, we may receive a small commission. This doesn’t cost you anything additional and helps to fund this site.

Hi everyone! I would just like to say that Ty have outdone themselves with the new 2025 Spring/Easter Beanie Boos range! They are quite possibly my favourite set of Easter-themed Beanie Boos ever!

I bought the full set of 2025 Easter Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies from The Magical Gift Boutique!

The Magical Gift Boutique is a small business in the UK that specialises in selling Ty Beanies! They are my go-to place when buying new Beanies and they always have great deals!

Click here to order the full set of Easter Beanies from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Let’s take a closer look at them all below…

Marigold

Marigold Easter Spring Yellow Chick with Easter Egg Ty Beanie Boo 2025

Marigold is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Marigold is a sweet little yellow chick with shiny orange fabric for her beak and feet. I’m so glad that Ty have decided to use fabric instead of glitter in recent releases. Not only did it have a tendency to rub off if you weren’t careful, it felt scratchy to touch.

Her Birthday is on 19th February and her poem reads:

I colored this egg for you.
It is one of just a few.
Easter is on the way.
Let’s celebrate the day!

Marigold Easter Spring Yellow Chick with Easter Egg Ty Beanie Boo 2025

She is very sweet and I love the multicoloured sprinkles and rainbow design on the little Easter egg she is holding!

Marigold is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Giggles

Giggles White Easter Egg Spring Cat Ty Beanie Boo 2025

Giggles is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

I was so surprised to see CAT Beanie Boos for Easter! Cats are my favourite animals and themed cat Beanie Boos are usually only released for Halloween – although I love those ones too!

Giggles is an incredibly sweet kitty who loves to sit inside her little pink Easter egg!

Her Birthday is on 18th April and her poem reads:

I don’t think I look that funny,
Dressed up like the Easter Bunny.
I didn’t know where to begin,
I wore these ears so I’d fit in.

Giggles Easter Egg Spring White Cat Ty Beanie Boo 2025

It also surprised me a little that Giggles’ eyes were’t like the traditional larger style Beanie Boo eyes! To be honest, I personally think in this case they may not have suited her. I think Ty were right to go with smaller eyes for her as she looks adorable as she is!

Giggles is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Gumdrop

Gumdrop Green Easter Bunny Cat Spring 2025 Ty Beanie Boo

Gumdrop is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Gumdrop is absolutely purrfect! She is probably my favourite Beanie Boo from this Easter set.

Her mint-green, striped colouring looks great with her glittery blue eyes and soft, white paws. Also who couldn’t love that face?…

Gumdrop Green Easter Bunny Cat Spring 2025 Ty Beanie Boo

Her Birthday is on 18th April and her poem reads:

I don’t think I look that funny,
Dressed up like the Easter Bunny.
I didn’t know where to begin,
I wore these ears, so I’d fit in.

Gumdrop Green Easter Bunny Cat Spring Ty Beanie Boo 2025

I’ve just realised as I was writing this that Gumdrop’s poem is identical to the one in Giggles hang tag! It makes sense with Gumdrop, as she is indeed wearing Easter Bunny ears, but Giggles is wearing an Easter Egg, not bunny ears! I wonder if this was a mistake on Ty’s part perhaps?

They are both seriously adorable though and great additions to the Beanie Boo range!

Gumdrop is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Skippy

Skippy Blue Easter Bunny Ty Beanie Bellies Spring 2025

Skippy is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Skippy is an adorable blue Beanie Bellies Easter Bunny covered in “sprinkles”!

Ty have been releasing Beanie Bellies Easter Bunnies for a few years now, although they usually come in a set of three. I was a little surprised to see only two this year.

Her Birthday is on 30th March and her poem reads:

Easter is that time of year,
To be happy and spread cheer.
I see smiles all around,
As I hop across the ground.

Skippy Blue Easter Bunny Ty Beanie Bellies Spring 2025

The two Easter Bunny Beanie Bellies appear to have gone back to having floppy ears this year!

Skippy is very similar to a previous release, called Bluford.

Here they are below with Skippy on the left and Bluford on the right.

Skippy (Left) and Bluford (Right) Easter BUnny Blue Spring Ty Beanie Bellies 2025

The two (from my eye anyway) appear to be an identical shade of blue. However, her mouth is a slightly different shape and thread colour. Skippy’s mouth is more of a peach colour, whereas Bluford’s mouth is pale pink.

Skippy is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Fern

Fern Green Easter Bunny Spring Ty Beanie Bellies 2025

Fern is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

The second Beanie Bellies Easter Bunny released this year is called Fern. She is a wonderful light green colour and covered with sprinkles like Skippy.

Her Birthday is on 20th May and her poem reads:

I eat clover late at night
Keeping still and out of sight.
You won’t see me come your way,
Not until it’s Easter Day.

Fern Green Easter Bunny Spring Ty Beanie Bellies 2025

Fern is also very similar to a previously released Easter Bunny called Peridot.

Here they are side by side with Fern on the left and Peridot on the right.

Fern (Left) and Peridot (Right) Easter Bunny Spring Green Ty Beanie Bellies 2025

They appear to me to be identical in colour, but both Easter Bunnies also have the same mouth differences as Skippy and Bluford..

Fern is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Get the complete set of Easter Beanies from The Magical Gift Boutique!

The complete set of five Easter Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies are available on a great deal from The Magical Gift Boutique!

They are currently available for £24.99! The normal price for these would be £29.95, so that’s a saving of almost £5!

My thoughts on the 2025 Easter/Spring Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies range…

I really love this year’s Easter Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies and it could possibly be my favourite Spring set released ever!

As I said earlier in the post, I am LOVING that there are cat Beanie Boos in this release! Usually we either get Easter bunnies, chicks or lambs, which is great as they are your traditional Spring/Easter animals. But I am thrilled to see cats for a change!

I was surprised to see that both Giggles and Gumdrop had the same poem. Is that the case everywhere? As it doesn’t seem to match with Giggles’ outfit! Please let me know in the comments below!

I love the Easter Bunnies Beanie Bellies, but would have loved to see some new colours. To my eye, they look exactly the same colour as Bluford and Peridot. I do kind of wish they would have made them even a different shade of green or blue. Maybe even chocolate brown with sprinkles? Or perhaps made them blue or green but with upright ears!

However, I guess if you hadn’t got hold of Peridot or Bluford the first time around, then at least you’d be able to get a blue or green Easter bunny.

I also wish there had been three Easter bunnies like in other releases. But, thats not really a big deal.

Overall, Gumdrop is a definite favourite of mine from this Easter range, closely followed by Giggles.

Do you have any of the 2025 Easter/Spring Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies? Who is your favourite this year? Do your Giggles and Gumdrop Beanie Boos have the same poem? Leave a comment below!

The Bluey Beanie Babies Set – Plus Extra Beanie!

Monday, February 3rd, 2025

Bluey, Bingo, Mum (Chilli), Dad (Bandit) Blue Heeler Dog Ty Beanie Baby Set

The links below are affiliate links. If you purchase something by clicking through one of the links below, we may receive a small commission. This doesn’t cost you anything additional and helps to fund this site.

Hi everyone! I managed to buy the whole Bluey Beanie Baby set from The Magical Gift Boutique!

My daughter is a huge Bluey fan, so I couldn’t resist picking these up!

Let’s take a look at them in a little more detail…

MUM!

Mum Chilli Bluey Ty Beanie Baby

Mum is mother to Bluey and Bingo in the TV series. Her real name is Chilli.

She is an orange “Blue Heeler” dog with a brown patch over her right eye. I love how she is starting to get white hairs on her face. Having two daughters myself, the white hairs are TOTALLY understandable!

Mum is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

DAD!

Dad Bandit Bluey Ty Beanie Baby

Dad is Bluey’s father, also known as Bandit.

He is blue, like Bluey, with dark blue over his eyes, almost like a mask (which is probably why he is named “Bandit”). He also has white hairs appearing on his face.

Dad is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

BINGO!

Bingo Bluey Ty Beanie Baby

Bingo is Bluey’s little sister in the TV series.

She is orange like her Mum, with a pale yellow belly and darker orange patches on her face.

Bingo is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

And finally….

BLUEY!

Bluey Ty Beanie Baby

Bluey is the main character from the TV series.

She is an energetic Blue Heeler dog and is a pale blue colour, like her Dad. She has darker blue patches over her eyes and pale blue eyebrows.

Bluey is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

Special offer for the full set at The Magical Gift Boutique!

Right now, there is a fantastic special offer for the full set of Bluey Beanie Babies! They are currently at £19.99 for the full set. The usual retail price for all four would be £23.96, so thats a discount of around £4!

GET THE FULL SET HERE!

The Bluey Beanie Babies are really popular so be sure to get them before they go!

I also have one more Beanie to show you…

Beanie Bouncer – Sammy!

Sammy Siamese Cat Ty Beanie Bouncer

I also ordered the Sammy Beanie Bouncer from The Magical Gift Boutique along with the Bluey set!

I’d been meaning to buy one of the Beanie Bouncers for a while, but hadn’t got around to it until now.

Sammy is a Siamese cat Beanie Bouncer with a round, cream coloured body and a chocolate brown face. Her blue eyes are beautiful and go with the chocolate brown of her face.

Sammy Siamese Cat Ty Beanie Bouncer

The Beanie Bouncers range don’t have hang tags. Instead, they have the name of the Beanie Bouncer and their birth date on their tush tag.

The other side has the barcode that would have normally been on a hang tag.

Sammy’s Birthday is on 27th August.

Sammy Siamese Cat Ty Beanie Bouncer Tush Tag

Sammy is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!

My thoughts on the Bluey Beanie Baby Set (Plus Sammy Beanie Bouncer!)…

I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Bluey Beanies were a very good likeness to the actual characters from the TV series.

They are also much softer than I thought they would be and very squishy. They are definitely a must for Bluey fans and Beanie Baby collectors alike!

Sammy is also awesome! I wasn’t sure about the Beanie Bouncers range, but they are really fun to bounce! The only thing I am concerned about is getting it dirty, so you would  have to make the decision whether you want to keep it as a collectible or to use it how it was intended and have lots of fun!
