You want Obama’s dog in Beanie Baby form?

Well now you can! TY has come out with a new beanie baby - Bo! Bo is Barack Obama’s official dog, is the newest craze amongst beanie baby affecianados and collecters all over America. The dogs retail price is $4.99 but the demand has pushed the asking price to more than double that. Some retailers are even asking upwards to a $100 for Obama’s cuddly pooch. 

The Associated Press reports:

Less than a dozen “Bo” Beanie Babies were sent to the educational toy shop Learning Express in the Chicago suburb of St. Charles, and he sold out quickly, owner Aalap Shah said Wednesday.

“We were fortunate enough to receive a small shipment of ‘Bo,’ ” Shah said. “He sold out within a few hours. He was very popular. We can’t wait to get some more in.”

Bo is designed after the real Bo - a new Portugese water dog, which the Obamas have accepted as their presidential dog. Bo was a gift from Senator Edward Kennedy.

There will also be a large version available as well for $9.99, so if you can’t get your hands on the original version, the large one will do in a pinch!

In other beanie baby news, Ty has introduced dolls modelled after the Obama children called Marvelous Malia and Sweet Sasha. Despite some initial objections, these dolls are wildly popular and in demand. The originals are now selling for more than $2000. Wow thats quite a bit of moola!

Common Beanie Baby Questions and Answers

Q: I have a 2 car Garage full of beanie babies (really) does any body know what i should do with them, should i keep incase they become popular again? Please give me your responses

A: Check on ebay. Obviously you have put a lot of time and money into collecting them. I would box/crate them up so they are mouse-proofed and hold onto them for at least another 20 or 30 years. A lot of people are saying that, since they are now worthless, they give them to their dogs for chew toys. I'm sure a lot of other people are just throwing them away. Who knows what the demand will be in 20 years?


Q: How many ty beanie babies were manufactured in total?

A: Actually Beanie Babies are still being manufactured. There isn't an up to date collectors site anywhere with any recent information. You could get an older guide and say as of Feb. 2005 there were this number of Beanies made etc. This will give you an estimated guess at how many have been made so far.


Q: How much are beanie babies worth and which ones are worth the most?

A: Beanie Babies Value

Beanie Babies

A Beanie Baby is a stuffed animal made by Ty Inc., which was founded by Ty Warner. The Ty company's famous special "posable lining" is under stuffed with plastic pellets (or "beans") rather than stuffing (see PVC and PE), giving Beanie Babies a flexible and cuddly feel. A Beanie Baby is essentially a fancy bean bag in the form of a stuffed animal.

Ever since their introduction, Beanie Babies have been a hot collectible, and time has only improved their desirability. Toymaker Ty Warner introduced the original nine Beanie Babies to collectors at the World Toy Fair in 1993:

Legs the Frog Beanie Baby

Squealer the Pig Beanie Baby

Brownie the Bear Beanie Baby (later renamed Cubbie the Bear)

Flash the Dolphin Beanie Baby

Splash the Whale Beanie Baby

Patti the Platypus Beanie Baby

Chocolate the Moose Beanie Baby

Spot the Dog Beanie Baby

Pinchers the Lobster Beanie Baby

What made Beanie Babies different?

When Ty replaced traditional stuffing with beans, or small PVC pellets, it introduced a new style of easy-to-pose plush animals to the toy market. Beanie Babies favored simplicity with minimal detail, basic color schemes, and little facial expression.
Beanie Baby tags

Beanie Babies are authenticated by their hang tags. The first generation Beanie Baby tags were straightforward: double-sided with a Ty logo on the front and the animal’s name and style on the back. Locket-style tags with poems came in later generations. Beanie Babies also had white “tush tags” with black lettering. It’s difficult to find the original Beanies with tush tags because they were often removed for child safety.
Not just for kids: a collectible craze begins

Yes, children were the primary consumers for Beanie Babies at the start. The collector craze didn’t really begin until 1997, when Ty began “retiring” the original nine. In 2000, Ty announced it would stop making Beanie Babies altogether, but ultimately left the decision to consumers. They overwhelmingly voted for the continued stuffing of Beanie Babies.
