Beanie Baby
Nineties stuffed fad
Beanie Babies are small plush toys filled with plastic pellets rather than traditional stuffing, giving them a flexible, poseable quality.
Produced by Ty Inc. beginning in 1993, they became a massive collecting craze in the late 1990s, with rare specimens fetching hundreds or thousands of dollars.
The bubble eventually burst, leaving many collectors with worthless inventory: My mom still has bins of Beanie Babies in the attic.
