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!
I always thought this little piggie reminded me of Babe the sheep pig. I liked how she had different coloured trotters to the rest of her and I adore her blue ribbon!
This little pig could have possibly been named a little more tastefully as her name, Luau, is the name of a traditional Hawaiian party, where the main dish is Kālua pig.
However, I think this cute little pig deserves to be mentioned in this list.
Wilbur is based on the character of the same name from the E. B. White book, Charlotte’s Web.
In the story, Wilbur is a pig that’s destined for the plate, when his friend, a barn spider named Charlotte, saves him from his fate by writing messages in her web to convince the farmer that Wilbur is special and to spare him.
He is a little different to most pigs released by Ty. Instead of the usual peach/pink coloured pigs, he has a beautiful white fur covered in black patches, almost like a Dalmatian!
Since it is Chinese New Year, I couldn’t leave out the Zodiac Pig!
This Chinese Zodiac themed Pig was released in 2000, along with all the other animals of the Chinese Zodiac. These included, the Pig, Monkey, Ox, Goat, Dragon, Rabbit, Rooster, Tiger, Snake and Horse.
Pigling Bland was a character from the Beatrix Potter book, The Tale of Pigling Bland.
The Pigling Bland Beanie Baby was exclusively available in the UK. He was usually found with the words “Pigling Bland” in blue thread on his brown jacket. However, there was also a variation with gold thread which was exclusive to The World of Beatrix Potter, which is an attraction in Cumbria, and Harrods.
This Zodiac pig was released in 2006 ready for the Year of the Pig in 2007.
He is similar in design to Wilbur, but he wears a red collar around his neck.
This Zodiac pig was an Asia-Pacific exclusive Beanie Baby, unlike the 2000 Zodiac Pig, which was available worldwide.

Here is yet another adorable Beanie Boo due to be released soon!
Her name is Scrappy the Cat and she is due to be released anytime soon. Hopefully she’ll be released within the next month! Here she is pictured below:
Scrappy will be a scruffy grey and beige cat with glittery pink eyes. So far I have no information on her poem or Birthday, but hopefully I can update that soon.
Scrappy appears to have almost curly fur, which is different to any other Beanie Boos that have been released.
There have also been some other additions in the range. Another Unicorn Lion named Layla was released in October 2018 and Begonia the Unicorn Rabbit was introduced earlier this month!
I love this unicorn animal range! They are so colourful and bright, and super adorable! I really hope Ty produce more of them!
I’ve come across this little unicorn, apparently called Cherie, on the internet. Could this be a new Beanie Boo?
I’m not prepared to add it to the site yet as I have yet to confirm if it’s real or fake.
I’ve seen one unboxing video, but it doesn’t include a hang tag in the video so it could be a fake. It was also on an ended eBay listing, which looks like it was sent from China, so again I’m a little suspicious. The only other place I’ve seen it is on Aliexpress, again a dubious source.
The sources I’ve found it claim it to be a 2019 Valentine’s Day Beanie Boo, but until I get some more information I’d treat it with caution for now.
Can anyone provide any more information on this Beanie Boo?
