What makes Ty Dual Tush Tagged Tiptoe so Valuable Ty’s Dual Tush Tagged Tiptoe Beanie Baby is considered ultra rare and highly valuable due to a combination of production quirks, tag anomalies, and collector demand. Here's a breakdown of what makes it stand out: ? Key Factors Driving Tiptoe’s Value ?? Dual Tush Tags (U.S. Canadian) Tiptoe versions with both U.S. and Canadian tush tags—often printed in English and French—are exceptionally scarce. These dual tags reflect unique distribution requirements and limited production runs, making them more collectible. Dual-tagged versions can fetch 10–50% more than single-tag counterparts. ? Factory Oddities Tag Errors Some Tiptoe bears feature uneven eyes, missing stamps, or alpha-numeric birthdates (e.g., “July 23 1998” spelled out), which are considered factory oddities. Tag mismatches—like a 1998 birthdate on the swing tag and 1999 on the tush tag—add to its uniqueness. ? Limited Production Early Retirement Tiptoe was introduced in April 1999 and retired just six months later in October 1999. This short production window contributes to its rarity, especially in mint condition. ? Condition Provenance Mint condition with original swing and tush tags intact (MWMT-MQ) significantly boosts value. Provenance matters: original owner listings or verified authenticity can command premium prices. ? Market Demand Tiptoe is a sought-after rodent-themed Beanie Baby, and its value continues to rise among serious collectors. These factors create a sense of rarity and exclusivity driving up demand and prices in the collector’s market.
