Beanie Baby Review – Zero the Penguin!

Friday, December 4th, 2020

Hi everyone!

It’s actually been snowing here! Not enough to settle on the ground, but it’s so cold!

Today, I’ve been busy adding more Beanies to the site. I’ve managed to get some more in, but apologies if I’ve missed anyone’s Beanie requests as there have just been so many!

I’ve also been doing a bit of filming for my next Vlogmas video on Youtube which is going to be released later!

Today, I have decided to review a Beanie Baby who arrived yesterday who I am just finding too cute not to write about!

Meet Zero!

Zero was released back in 1998, so he’s actually 22 years old now! I can’t get over how cute this little guy is with his little red Santa hat! It actually matches my own…

Zero’s Birthday is on 2nd January 1998 and his poem reads as follows:

Penguins love the ice and snow
Playing in weather twenty below
Antarctica is where I love to be
Splashing in the cold, cold sea!

As seen in my Vlogmas videos, I have been trying to make the house more festive and I recently made a Beanie Winter Wonderland scene under the Christmas tree. I have actually given Zero a little place in this scene and think he looks quite at home now!

Have you got Zero in your collection? Leave a comment below!

Vlogmas video – Day 3

Thursday, December 3rd, 2020

Hi everyone!

It’s been a wet and miserable day here today, so I’ve been busy putting up more Christmas decorations.

We decided to get McDonald’s today to try and get some of the new Mini Boos, but ended up disappointed as they didn’t have any in stock! Oh well, maybe next time!

I’ve also just released my Vlogmas video on YouTube for the 3rd December!

Check it out below!

Making the house more festive!

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2020

Hi everyone!

Hope you are all well and staying safe!

I have been busy adding in a few more Beanies to the website today, which you can now add to your My Beanies page.

Also, some great news for those in the UK…the new McDonald’s Teenie Beanie Boos were released today!

There are ten designs to collect, so keep your eyes open for them!

Today I have been making the house more Christmassy! I thought the tree was looking a bit bare so I added a few festive touches to it!

I have also released my second Vlogmas video on Youtube! Check it out below!

Have a great day!

We went on a Beanie Hunt…

Tuesday, December 1st, 2020

Hi everyone!

On Sunday, we decided to hunt for some Beanies at out local Poundland!

I didn’t expect there to be much out there, especially since the Beanie shelf was pretty bare last time, but we actually ended up pleasantly surprised!

Watch our new YouTube video of our latest Beanie haul!

McDonald’s Teenie Beanie Boos coming to the UK!

Saturday, November 28th, 2020

Hi everyone!

Previously, I posted an article about the Teenie Beanie Boos that arrived to Germany from August to September.

Well, I’ve just found out on the McDonald’s website that the Teenie Beanie Boos are arriving to the UK!

They are going to be included in every McDonald’s Happy Meal from 2nd December, so keep a look out for them! I’m not sure whether they will be available for individual purpose yet, especially with the current situation, but at least they’re going to be finally available soon!

Interestingly, it looks like are going to be two new faces appearing. As seen below, there seems to be a winged pegasus and a griffin, which is kind of cool.

I am really looking forward to these guys finally coming to the UK, so from 2nd December, keep your eyes open for them!

Stay safe and have a great Saturday!

Unboxing Holly, the Claire’s exclusive Beanie Boo!

Tuesday, November 24th, 2020

Hi guys!

I’m really excited because today my Holly Beanie Boo arrived!

Holly is one of the three, brand new Claire’s exclusive Beanie Boos, the other two being Rory the kangaroo and Kora the koala.

So far, only Holly is available in the UK, but all three are available on the USA Claire’s website, where you can find Holly, Kora and Rory.

My first thoughts on Holly are that she looks nothing like the stock image on the Claire’s website and more like the original promotional image where she appeared to be more of an ice-blue colour.

Take a look at my unboxing video below!

Claire’s exclusives now available in the US!

Monday, November 23rd, 2020

Hi everyone!

Previously I mentioned about the new Claire’s exclusive Beanie Boos, Holly, Kora and Rory.

A few days ago, Holly was released on all the Claire’s websites worldwide. I have one on it’s way to me now which I will do an unboxing of when it arrives.

Well, now it appears that Kora and Rory are also now available! Unfortunately (for me) they are only available in the USA at the moment, so us lot in the UK will have to wait a little longer (BOOOO! No fair!)

Anyway, for those in the USA, they are all available on the Claire’s website!

I have updated all their details on Beaniepedia, including their poems and birthdates.

New YouTube Channel!

Sunday, November 22nd, 2020

Hi everyone!

I’m really excited to tell you that I have decided to launch a brand new YouTube channel!

On the channel, I’m hoping to include unboxing videos, reviews and Beanie news. At the moment, it’s all a bit experimental, but I thought I’d try it out!

So, please check it out and subscribe for further updates!

What do you think? Please be kind, this is my very first video!

Holly is now available!

Friday, November 20th, 2020

Hi everyone!

I have some exciting news for you all! One of our members got in contact to let me know that the brand new dragon Beanie Boo, Holly, is now available on the Claire’s website!

The bad news is…I just had to order one! So, I’m really excited that she’s on the way to me soon, but I promised myself no more Beanie Boos this month (oops!). However, I’ll do an unboxing shortly (along with a few others I still have to do…)

She looks slightly more purple-y in this picture than I originally thought she would be. From the original image that Claire’s released she had more of an icy-blue hue to her, so I guess I’ll find out when she arrives and let you know.

I have updated her page now that I have more information on her, so go and check her out!

Just to warn you if you are thinking of getting Holly, the Claire’s website were suggesting that they had low stock levels.

Do you have Holly in your collection yet? What are your thoughts on her? Leave a comment below!
