Spring has Sprung! – Introducing the new Ty Beanies for 2023!

Thursday, February 2nd, 2023

Hi everyone!

A lot has been going on around here lately. Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and recently Ty announced this year’s selection of 2023 Valentine’s Day Beanies!

We have also added the brand new Beanie Birthday Finder feature to the website to help you find out which Beanies have Birthdays on a specific day!

Now for some more exciting news…

Introducing the new, upcoming Ty Beanies for Spring 2023!

There is a great selection this year and I’m really excited get hold of them!

The Easter/Spring collection

Ty have released a great selection of specific Spring/Easter-themed Beanie Boos and Beanie Bellies this year. Following on from the 2022 bunnies, April, May and Spring, there are three more bunnies to collect! They are called Peridot, Hyacinth and Bluford and I just love their springtime colours! I wonder if Ty will release any more Easter bunnies in Spring 2024 to add to this particular collection?

Ty Beanie Bellies Easter Bunnies for 2023 - Peridot, Hyacinth and Bluford

What I love about these cute little bunnies is they give off nostalgic vibes of the old 90’s Easter rabbits, Hippie, Hippity, Hoppity and Floppity. I would love to see a tie-dyed version of these rabbits akin to Hippie as I loved that pastel-coloured, rainbow bunny!

There are also two new Easter Beanie Boos!

Meet Corwin and Hops!

I am so in love with Hops! He is so colourful and bright and I adore his sparkly blue eyes!

Corwin and Hops Ty Beanie Boos

I also think little Corwin is just the cutest! I’m glad Ty have decided to switch up the design of the traditional Easter chick this year a little and feature him sitting in his very own eggshell!

There are also a couple of new Beanie Balls available for Easter. Ty have released an adorable chick and sheep called Eggy and Baasby which would make the ideal gift for Easter.

More Ty Beanies for 2023…

Ty have also announced an awesome range of brand new Beanie Boos, Beanie Bellies and Beanie Balls for this year!

I’ll show you a selection of my favourites and put a full list at the bottom for you to browse through.

Honeycomb

Honeycomb Ty Beanie Boo

Honeycomb is definitely among my favourites from the new 2023 range. I love how fluffy she is around her face and her cute little tongue as well as the airbrushing details on her eyes.

There seems to be a bit of a theme going on this time with the new “cheeky” faces, as you will see with another of my favourites…

Sherbet

Sherbet Ty Beanie Balls

Sherbet is another example of the new style of face this year. He is part of the Beanie Balls (previously Ty Puffies) range.

This range of Beanies are weighted at the bottom and fall on their feet if you throw them in the air.

I love Sherbet’s cheeky expression and there appears to be a bit of a cutesy, kawaii vibe going on at Ty at the moment as there are a few additions with a similar style.

Next up…

Snapper

Snapper Ty Beanie Bellies

How adorable is this little guy?!

Snapper is quite possibly one of my favourites this year so far! I’ve been hoping Ty would make another frog Beanie.

What I really love about Snapper is his yellow, webbed feet and huge, beaming smile that is sure to cheer you up if you’re having a bad day!

Zinger

Zinger Ty Beanie Balls

Zinger is another addition to the Beanie Balls range. He is adorable little bee, made even cuter by his rosy-pink, airbrushed cheeks and tiny red nose!

Lillibelle

Lillibelle Ty Beanie Bellies

Lillibelle is an adorable shade of cotton candy pink with matching whiskers and paw pads!

Those who know me will know that I love cats and I’m really happy to see loads of kitties available this year!

There is another cat I’m also looking forward to getting hold of…

Morgan

Morgan Ty Beanie Bellies

Morgan is the purrfect partner for Lillibelle. She is a smokey-grey colour with beautiful purple eyes. I particularly love the airbrushing to make her eyes look more intense. She also has cute, pink paw pads like Lillibelle.

Full list of Ty Beanies announced for 2023

There are way too many gorgeous Beanies to mention above, so I’ve limited it to just a few of my favourites. Below you can find the full list of Ty Beanie Boos, Beanie Bellies and Beanie Balls that have been revealed.

New Feature! – Beanie Baby Birthday Finder!

Tuesday, January 31st, 2023

Hi everyone!

Apologies for things being a little slow on the website lately. We’ve had our hands full with the arrival of our own, littlest Beanie Baby, Chloe!

Things have been a little hectic round here, although we are beginning to somewhat settle into some kind of routine and I’ve been trying to update Beaniepedia in between feeding and nap times.

I have been working my way through your Beanie requests but if I haven’t added your request just yet, don’t worry, I will do shortly.

And now for some more news I’m excited to share with you all…we have a brand new feature on the website!

New Beanie Baby Birthday feature!

If you haven’t seen it already, there is a new Beanie Birthday Finder feature on the website! You can now search for Ty Beanies with a Birthday on a specific day. For instance, you had a friend and you wanted to find a Beanie that shared their birth date, just look for the section on the right hand column that says “Birthday beanie”, enter the month and day that you want to search for and you will be able to find all the Beanies with a Birthday on that day!

You can also filter the results, for example, if you want to only show all the Beanie Boos with a Birthday on today’s date (31st January). You will then see a list of all the Beanie Boos that have a Birthday for that specific day. In this instance, that would be Ollie the Octopus, Ollie the Octopus (Medium) and Ollie the Octopus (Key Clip).

Ollie the Octopus Beanie Boo

I hope you enjoy using this new feature and find it helpful in finding out Ty Beanie Birthdays!

What do you think about the Beanie Birthday finder? Is there anything we can improve?

Beanie News Roundup – January 2022

Wednesday, January 12th, 2022

Hi everyone!

Sorry its been a while since my last post. Christmas and New Year have taken up a lot of my time with visiting family and then I caught a cold (thankfully not Covid) when I got home and had to take some much needed rest.

So what’s been going on recently in the Beanie world…

Well actually, a LOT!

The new design of Beanie Babies have been released and Ty has announced that they are called Beanie Bellies! It’s a little confusing as they still have a Beanie Babies hang tag, but maybe they will get their own hang tag one day.

The Beanie Bellies that are currently available are Wilfred, Duncan, Ace, Skylar, Clawdia, Ying, Miso and Mitzi.

New Beanie Bellies 2021

There’s some more good news too. According to the Ty Calendar, it looks like we are going to get more Beanie Bellies!

Three that stand out are Mitch the otter, Ruggles the dog, and Thunder the husky (pictured below).

New Beanie Bellies 2022

Aren’t they adorable?!

I’m still waiting for the Beanie Bellies to arrive in the UK (you guys in the USA are so lucky!), but from the pictures I’ve seen, I’m as excited for this range as I was for Beanie Boos!

There have also been loads of Beanie Boos announced (I’ll list them all in another post shortly). One that has caught my eye is Becca. She appears to be a “girlfriend” for Binky!

Becca the Bush Baby Beanie Boo

She is very much like Binky but is made from pink and purple fabrics in place of the brown colour palette that Binky has.

There are also going to be more Squish a Boos and Ty Puffies coming this year and they all look so cute!

I won’t go into the full details of them just yet (again, I will list them fully in another post), but my favourite of all these is Nessa.

Nessa Squish a Boo

Nessa is a brightly coloured caterpillar who is too cute for words!

Looking at the calendar, she will be available in a medium and large size. So far there doesn’t appear to be a small size, but who knows in the future!

New Teenie Beanie Boos in McDonald’s for Christmas 2021!

Saturday, December 18th, 2021

Hi everyone!

Just a heads up that McDonald’s (in the UK at least) are now running a Teenie Beanie Boo promotion!

I wasn’t even aware of this promotion and only came across it after ordering a Happy Meal for my daughter. I couldn’t believe my luck when I opened up the box and spotted the Ty heart on the smaller box inside!

Inside was a cute little white seal wearing a red hat, covered in a white fish pattern. She has embroidered, green eyes instead of plastic eyes like previous Teenie Beanie Boos. This is because McDonald’s in the UK have stopped making plastic Happy Meal toys. This may explain why the previous promotion never arrived in the UK.

This cute little seal is called Sally. Her Birthday is on October 5th and her poem reads as follows:

In the month of December,
you’ll hear me squeal.
It’s almost Christmas,
I’m one happy Seal!

So far, I’m only aware of the five Teenie Beanie Boos in the top picture and Sally the seal. If anybody has any further information, please comment below!

New small size Squish a Boos!

Friday, December 3rd, 2021

Hi everyone!

Ty have now released a new size of Squish a Boo!

There are nine new Squish a Boos available in the brand new small size and they are all an adorable, pocket-sized 4″ tall!

The new Squish a Boos available in the small size are Bamboo, Kiki, Giselle, Fantasia, Pinky, Slush, Heather, Dotty and brand new Squish a Boo design, Rosette (pictured below).

From the stock images, the small size of Squish a Boos appear to have solid, glittery button eyes instead of the faux leather/fabric eyes of the larger Squish a Boos.

I’ve spent today updating the Squish a Boos section of the website to include the new designs and have changed the size description in their names accordingly, so that they are now described as small, medium and large size Squish a Boos. I have also added any Squish a Boos that I had left out. Please let me know if I’ve missed any out.

Do you have any of the small Squish a Boos in your collection?

Happy Thanksgiving!

Plymouth Beanie Baby

Hi everyone!

I would like to wish a very Happy Thanksgiving to all my Beanie friends who are celebrating today!

I’m thankful for everyone for taking the time to get involved on the website. It means the world to me that people find the site useful and I hope it continues to be a resource for tracking your Beanie collection.

Pictured above is one of my favourite Thanksgiving Beanies. His name is Plymouth and he carries a tiny “turkey” in his paws. How cute it that?!

Below, the Ty Store exclusive, Turk-e is celebrating Thanksgiving with Roam.

Have a terrific day today and Happy Collecting!

Karma Chameleon!

Tuesday, October 26th, 2021

Hi everyone!

Halloween is just around the corner and I found a Pumkin’ Beanie Baby on eBay who will become one of my decorations this year!

Yesterday, I also managed to get hold of a Flippable I’ve been wanting to buy for some time!

Meet Karma.

Karma is arguably one of the most colourful Flippables around! Her body is covered in reversible sequins that are all the colours of the rainbow. Check out how pretty they are!

When you flip her sequins the other way, they change to sparkly silver, as shown below. She also has a ridge of sparkly, rainbow coloured spikes running along her back.

Her Birthday is on 19th January and her poem reads as follows:

A true chameleon, my colors do change
Flip my sequins and watch as I rearrange!

Karma’s legs and tail don’t have sequins on them. Instead, they are made from a brightly coloured, rainbow material covered in a shiny scale pattern. What I love the most is Karma’s curled tail.

Karma was released in both a small and medium size.

Do you have Karma in your collection? Who is your favourite Ty Flippable? Leave a comment below!

Genevieve the Cat – Attic Treasures Review

Monday, October 11th, 2021

Hi everyone!

In my last post, I mentioned that I had purchased a new Beanie that I’d seen based on one of the requests that I’d added and that I’d do a full review once I’d received her. Well….she arrived!

Meet Genevieve!

genevieve ty attic treasures

Genevieve is a beautiful white cat from the Attic Treasures collection! I couldn’t resist getting her!

I’ve given her fur a comb (well, who doesn’t have a bad hair day after being sent in the mail?), but now she’s back to her former glory. Her fur is really fluffy, so much so that I had to try and comb it out of the way of her gorgeous blue eyes! She has the cutest, embroidered pale pink nose and long, white thread whiskers. For the final touch, she has a little pink rose just above her right ear.

She has a 7th generation Attic Treasures hang tag (not to be confused with a 3rd generation Beanie Babies hang tag as they look very similar on the outside – see the Beanie Baby tag identification guide) and has the following phrase inside:

“Feline Great!”

It’s short and simple but suits her well, as she does indeed look like she’s feeling great.

When I saw Genevieve, I knew I HAD to have her in my collection! As I’ve mentioned previously, I’m a huge cat lover and love to collect the Ty cats. I also love her name, Genevieve. I think it sounds really pretty and goes well with her delicate features. Also…how cute are those toe beans?!

genevieve ty attic treasures

I’ve always loved the Attic Treasures collection. It’s one of my favourite product lines along with Beanie Babies and Beanie Boos. I love how they have a vintage look to them, and like their name suggests, have come straight out of the attic.

Do you have Genevieve in your collection or any other Attic Treasures? What do you think of Genevieve? Leave a comment below!

Halloween is nearly here!

Friday, October 8th, 2021

Hi everyone!

It’s been so busy here lately! I’ve been trying to get in as many Beanie requests as possible as I’ve had so many! I’ve still got some more to get through, but I’ve got through quite a big portion of them. The only issue with adding Beanie requests is that I find myself seeing Beanies I absolutely ADORE and must have!

I have actually ordered a new Beanie because of one of the requests I have had through. I will reveal which Beanie when I receive her and do a full review, but she looks so cute that I can’t wait to get her!

I have got some new Halloween Beanies though. Here they are pictured below:

I managed to pick up the two new Halloween Ty Puffies, Echo and Seeds! Echo is so adorable with his little round, fluffy body and tiny fangs and Seeds is cute too!

I also got Seeds in Flippables form! I love how he looks so happy! His glittery green eyes also look great against his bright orange sequins.

Jinx also arrived! I love her gold and dark brown sequins and her odd eyes in orange and green. She also carries a sparkly pumpkin treat in her mouth.

Last but not least, I managed to get hold of Eerie! Eerie is part of the Squish a Boos range and his tiny, sparkly purple wings are too cute for words!

I’ve also got my eye on two Halloween Beanies that I really want in my collection.

The first of these is Hocus.

I love how this little guy has his very own pet spider who he carries around on top of his head.

The second Halloween Beanie I want to get hold of is Scaredy.

Scaredy was a Halloween Beanie Baby I added recently as a request. She is actually part of the Beanie Babies 2.0 range and featured a special code to access a section of Ty’s website that used to be available where you could play games and chat. I love how she has an arched back as if she’s scared of something (hence the name, “Scaredy”).

Latest Beanie Haul!

Saturday, September 25th, 2021

Hi everyone!

Recently I’ve been on the hunt for Beanie bargains! One of my favourite places to go is to my local charity shops!

Up until this week, I haven’t had much luck as there have either been no Beanies to be seen or they have had ones I already own. This week however, I’ve managed to pick up a LOT!

I found a 2000 Signature Teddy in my local British Heart Foundation shop. I just LOVE the colours on this one!

He is a mottled purple and grey colour and absolutely beautiful. He wears a multicoloured mesh ribbon and features the embroidered Signature Bear heart with the year 2000 on it.

Float and Twitterbug are two new bugs to join my collection.

I love how Float has a longer pile on the fabric of her upper wings as it makes them look a little furry. I also LOVE the name “Twitterbug”! It sounds very cute (even though I know from experience cicadas are VERY noisy!).

I also found a few new kitties for my collection! Tabitha, Purr and Miles were also charity shop finds.

Sadly, Miles didn’t have a hang tag attached, but I couldn’t leave her all on her own, so she came home too!

I also found Cara from the Hallmark shop at Lakeside Shopping Outlet in the UK. There were 50% Ty products, so I also picked up Enchanted to go with her.

I picked up Derby (fluffy mane version) and Iggy (blue version without a tongue) as I didn’t have them and they were both cheap. I used to own them both, but I can’t remember what happened to them.

I also picked up some tinies. Stretchy, ‘Nook, Claude and Rocket are all McDonald’s Teenie Beanie Babies, Ozzie is a Halloweenie Beanie owl and Gypsy the St. Bernard is a Teeny Ty.

I found a Flippables Pixy the unicorn in Poundland who is absolutely beautiful! I adore her rainbow coloured glittery eyes!

Here they are altogether…

And finally, today I found four more Beanie Babies. Sheets, Danny Dog, Squirmy and the Cat with Heart Eyes emoji.
