Hi everyone!
I’m so excited to show you these guys! My new Anniversary Beanie Babies arrived from The Magical Gift Boutique!
Meet Stanley, Foster and Molasses!
These guys are the latest set of Anniversary Beanie Babies, but the first to drop the “II” after their name!
When Ty first hinted at these three, everyone (including myself) thought they would be remodelled versions of Slippery, Mooch and Slowpoke. Later their names were announced and they were shown on the Ty instagram page as Stanley II, Molasses II and Foster II, so I assumed that would be what the tag read too.
But when they arrived, I was surprised that the “II” had been dropped! I’m kind of glad though, as they have brand new names so it wouldn’t have made sense to keep using the “II”.
Let’s take a look at them a bit closer…
Stanley
Stanley is very similar to Slippery, but he has had a complete overhaul in his design. He sports a gorgeous mint-green colour matched with his yellow tummy! I absolutely adore his innocent expression and little blue nose and blue thread whiskers!
He sits just like Slippery did, using his flippers to sit himself upright. It almost looks like he’s sunbathing! I also like how he looks ever so slightly chunkier than Slippery did.
His Birthday is on 4th May (Star Wars Day!) and his hang tag reads:
Calmly sleep the whole night through,
As my flippers comfort you.
You’ll feel safe during the night,
As I hold you very tight.
I really love Stanley’s crazy colour combination, as I love the colourful Beanie Babies! He kind of has that 90’s vibe going, where Ty made quite a few brightly coloured Beanie Babies.
Stanley is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!
Foster
Foster is essentially Mooch but coloured a fiery bright red! His face, hands, feet and ears have changed to a pale pink colour, but he has kept the gorgeous ring of fluffy, white fur around his face.
He has a very sweet expression on his face, his sad-looking black button eyes accentuated by his embroidered eyebrows. His black nostrils finish off his look.
On the back, he has a long, bright red tail, which has kept the little curl at the end that Mooch had.
His Birthday is on 3rd February and his poem reads:
I’m a monkey with no phone
But I’m never all alone.
I visit people that I like
By riding over on my bike.
I love this little red monkey and think he makes a welcome addition to the new Beanie Babies collection!
Foster is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!
And finally…
Molasses
Molasses looks like he could be based on Slowpoke with a redesigned face.
He is a vivid, bright orange, with a turquoise face and bright blue stripes over his eyes. His colours are absolutely gorgeous in real life and much better than the photos I could manage to take of him.
His back is a solid orange with no other colours, but I wouldn’t have expected that. In fact, he kind of looks like he’s wearing an orange, hooded jacket from the back!
His Birthday is on 7th August and his poem reads:
I may be slow as you can see,
But I don’t let it bother me.
It never keeps my friends away,
Moving slow is just my way.
I really love Molasses and think he is possibly one of my favourites of this set due to his vivid colours.
Molasses is available to order from The Magical Gift Boutique!
My thoughts…
I am absolutely in love with this set! I’ve always loved the brightly coloured Beanie Babies that were released back in the 90’s and I’m so glad that this set is the most brightly coloured so far!
Molasses is probably my favourite overall, followed by Stanley and Foster.
I bought the Beanie Bundle on The Magical Gift Boutique, which worked out cheaper than buying them individually.
