Let's start off with the Original Nine. Ty Warner (and his punchable face) released both Beanie Babies and Beanie Buddies first as a group of nine, followed by the rest. The original nine of each are as follows, with the ones I don't own in white:
Beanie Babies | Beanie Buddies |
---|---|
Chocolate the Moose | Beak the Kiwi |
Cubbie the Bear | Humphrey the Camel |
Flash the Dolphin | Jake the Mallard |
Legs the Frog | Peanut the Elephant (royal and light) |
Patti the Platypus | Quackers the duck (with wings) |
Pinchers the Lobster | Rover the Dog |
Splash the Orca | Stretch the Ostrich |
Spot the Dog | Teddy the Bear (cranberry) |
Squealer the Pig | Twigs the Giraffe |
I'm going to list these again below in my want/have/getting lists, but I wanted you all to know what these nine are and why I think they're special.
This color is for ones that I have!
This color is for ones on the way, or otherwise in the process of getting!
