Original 9, Princess Diana, Royal Blue Peanut, recall variants, and other high-value finds.

+ New thread

The Princess bear (1997 Diana commemorative) was made in both Indonesia (PVC pellets) and China (PE pellets). The PVC Indonesian version is technically rarer but BOTH versions are very common — the "I have a Princess Diana, I'm rich" myth needs to die. Most are worth $20–$50. Hang tag condition + authentication is what moves the needle.

Royal Blue Peanut the Elephant (1995, dark blue colorway) is one of the few legitimately rare Beanies — only a small number were made before being changed to light blue. Authenticated examples regularly clear $1,500+. If you think you have one, get it authenticated before listing.

Rough current order (mint w/ mint tag, authenticated): 1) Brownie (renamed Cubbie) 2) Patti the Platypus (royal-blue variant) 3) Squealer 4) Spot 5) Pinchers 6) Flash 7) Splash 8) Chocolate 9) Legs. Real values vary wildly by tag generation and condition — these are ballparks.
