Decade Bear Plush (8.5") - Ty - Original Beanie Babies Series - (2003)

Decade the Bear is a special Ty Beanie Baby created to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Beanie Babies collection, making it a meaningful commemorative piece for longtime collectors. Released in 2003, this approximately 8.5-inch bear features a vibrant red plush body enhanced with shimmering silver accents that create a festive, sparkling effect. Its classic seated teddy-bear silhouette, rounded ears, black button-style eyes, and larger black nose retain the recognizable styling of traditional Ty Beanie Babies, while a blue ribbon around the neck provides a contrasting finishing detail.

The centerpiece of Decade's design is the “10th Anniversary” commemorative button attached to the chest, clearly marking its connection to the milestone celebration. The swing tag further enhances its collector appeal with an anniversary poem celebrating ten years of Beanie Babies and their popularity among collectors worldwide. Because Decade was produced in multiple colors for Ty's 10th-anniversary celebration, this red version offers a distinctive addition to vintage Beanie Babies displays and anniversary-themed collections, with soft plush construction and pellet filling providing the lightweight, flexible feel associated with classic Ty collectibles.
