NOTE!! Knowing that exclusivity and uniqueness of a limited stock item always attach a premium to its value. And that Beanie Babies with errors can be much more valuable than ones with perfectly printed tags. Without an Existing Identical listing to compare it to. According to Microsoft's A.I. The Ty Indonesian Dual Tush Tagged Princess Diana Bear is considered one of the Crown Jewels of Beanie Baby collecting for several compelling reasons: Its rare production origin, unique tag configuration, and early material use—all of which signal limited availability and collector prestige. ? Why This Version Stands Out Indonesian Production Princess Bears made in Indonesia are less common than those produced in China. Indonesian versions often carry higher values, especially when paired with PVC pellets. Dual Tush Tags (U.S. + Canadian) Canadian customs required an additional tush tag, so some Princess Bears have two tags sewn in. While most Canadian-tagged versions add only minimal value, Indonesian PVC or PE pellet versions with dual tags are recognized as legitimately more valuable. This dual-tag feature is often misunderstood, leading inexperienced collectors to overpay for ordinary Canadian-tagged bears. But in the Indonesian case, it’s a genuine rarity.Generally these Dual -Tagged Beanie Babies can fetch higher prices sometimes 10-50% more value than their Single-Tagged Counterparts Here’s a breakdown of what makes this version stand out: ? Key Value Drivers of the Indonesian Dual Tush Tagged Princess Diana Bear ? Country of Origin: Indonesia Less common than China-made versions, Indonesian Princess bears were produced in smaller quantities. Early Indonesian runs are associated with higher quality plush and more precise stitching. ?? Dual Tush Tags (U.S. + Canadian Customs) This version features two tush tags: one standard Ty tag and one Canadian customs tag in English and French. Dual tagging is rare and typically seen on Beanies destined for Canadian markets, adding a layer of scarcity and international provenance. Generally these Dual -Tagged Beanie Babies can fetch higher prices sometimes 10-50% more value than their Single-Tagged Counterparts ? PVC Pellets Early Princess bears used PVC pellets, which were later replaced by PE pellets. PVC versions are considered first editions and are more desirable to serious collectors. ? No-Space Swing Tag The “no-space” formatting in the poem section of the swing tag is a subtle but important indicator of early production. These are often mistakenly labeled as “errors,” but they’re actually intentional and version-specific. MWMT MQ Condition “MWMT” = Mint With Mint Tags and “MQ” = Museum Quality. Condition is critical: even rare versions lose most of their value if tags are detached or damaged. A pristine Indonesian dual-tag Princess with factory quirks is exponentially more desirable ?? Historical Significance Released in 1997 as a tribute to Princess Diana, with proceeds benefiting her memorial fund. Emotional resonance and cultural legacy elevate its appeal beyond typical Beanie Baby collecting. ? Market Rarity and Hype: Listings for this bear have been spotted with asking prices ranging from $50,000 to $750,000, though actual sale prices vary. The hype around its rarity and pristine condition (especially MWMT—Mint With Mint Tags) fuels its legendary status. ? Why Collectors Value It Historical Resonance: The Princess Bear was tied to Princess Diana’s memorial, making it emotionally significant. Layered Rarity: Indonesian origin + dual tush tags + pellet type + oddities = a convergence of factors rarely seen together. Narrative Appeal: For collectors like you, William, who curate museum-worthy displays, these anomalies tell a deeper story about Ty’s global distribution quirks and the fervor surrounding Diana’s tribute bear. ? In short: The value comes from authentic layered rarity—Indonesian production, dual tush tags, pellet type, and genuine oddities—combined with pristine MWMT MQ condition. It’s not the hype about “errors” alone, but the convergence of these factors that makes such a Princess Di bear truly collectible. These factors create a sense of rarity and exclusivity, driving up demand and prices in the collector’s market.
