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!

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!

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!

Friday is here!

Friday, November 13th, 2020

It’s Friday, and quite a sunny one at Beaniepedia HQ!

This morning I took this photo of my new medium-sized Charmed Flippable, who I absolutely ADORE! I’ve never really collected the medium Beanie Boos/Flippables before (mainly because of space to keep them all), but there is something about the medium size Flippables especially because the sequins seem to flip more easily!

It’s also Friday 13th today, which is a little concerning if you’re superstitious in the year 2020 where nothing seems to be going right.

I’ve managed to get in a few more Beanie requests today (for some reason I can’t reply to one of the members who contacted me, but just to let you know I got your email and I have added some of the Beanies that weren’t on the website. I still have some to add but I will get them in shortly).

Right now, I’m going to have a tea break (excuse the bowl. It’s my daughter’s, honest!). Have a great weekend!

Happy Halloween from Beaniepedia!

Saturday, October 31st, 2020

Hi everyone!

Just a quick message to wish you all a Happy Halloween! Have a safe, spooky time!

Today, we took a trip out to one of our favourite places in the UK…Dartmoor! Well known for it’s ghost stories and spooky tales. Batty and Roam came along for the ride too!

Our trip was a bit short-lived because the weather turned bad, but we had a great day out nonetheless.

Also, Pandora, Spike and Radar didn’t want to be left out of the Halloween fun! Love these little Boos!

Happy Halloween folks, and stay safe! Let us know your favourite Halloween Beanies in the comments below!

Beanie Baby Birthday – Zeus!

Friday, October 23rd, 2020

Hi everyone! I hope you are all safe and well!

Well it’s a little bit of a grey, damp day here at Beaniepedia HQ today so I thought I’d look up which Beanie had a Birthday today and I came across….*drum roll*….

Zeus the Moose!

I just thought this little guy looked so adorable! He reminds me in some ways of an updated Chocolate, one of the Original 9 Beanie Babies.

His Birthday is 23rd October 2002 and his poem reads as follows:

With mighty antlers on my head
It’s difficult to get in bed
But I sleep better, yes I do
When I am cuddled next to you!

I also just love the name Zeus, giving the impression that he’s this big, strong, almighty being, but really he’s this cuddly little thing just asking for a hug!

Have you got Zeus in your collection?

It’s mid-week already!

Wednesday, October 7th, 2020

Well it’s the middle of the week again!

As you may be aware from my Facebook and Instagram pages, we recently got back to the UK from Bulgaria, and as such, we are now in quarantine for 14 days. I don’t know if it’s being quarantine, or being back in the UK with easier access to Beanies (Bulgaria doesn’t really have a market for them), I think I’ve gone a bit Beanie-crazy recently as I’ve managed to get hold of all three Halloween Beanie Boos, Radar, Pandora and Spike! Here they all are pictured with Roam below.

I can’t decide which is my favourite. At first, being a bit of a cat-lover, I thought it might be Pandora. I just love her green eyes and little witch’s hat!

But now, I’m torn between all three!

Radar has a round, fluffy body with little white highlights and I love the colour pattern on his wings and ears. His eyes are also a little different as they almost have a “glowing” look to them.

And Spike is also ultra-adorable!

He has these cute little dark circles under his eyes (almost like myself most days!) and his little smile cheers me right up!

As well as these cuties, I also have Bruni (with sound) on the way. The place I bought him from (The Magical Gift Boutique) kindly gave me the option to have one delivered later, even though I was away at the time, so he should be on his way to me shortly (yay!)

And finally, I have ordered two more Beanie Boos. Hope (who I was unable to get while I was away) and Chase (from Paw Patrol) are currently on their way to me. I’m not actually sure which colour nose my Hope will have, but I’m thinking maybe blue? Technically, one of these two isn’t actually for me – it’s my daughter’s Birthday coming up soon and she ADORES Paw Patrol – so that makes it a tiny bit better, but a few more Beanies have caught my eye since…

Have you bought any new Beanies recently? If so, what new additions do you have to your collections? Leave a comment below!

Have a great Wednesday!
