Peanut the Elephant Beanie Buddy

This is a Royal Blue Peanut the Elephant plush toy from the Beanie Buddy product line by Ty Inc. The item measures approximately 14 inches in length and is constructed from soft, high-piled royal blue polyester fiber with a secondary light grey or white fabric used for the inner ear linings. The elephant is depicted in a reclining, flopped pose with distinct large floppy ears, a raised trunk, and small black plastic beaded eyes. A critical identifying feature is the iconic heart-shaped red 'Ty' swing tag attached to its left ear, which carries the 'Beanie Buddy' gold star emblem, distinguishing it from the smaller Beanie Baby version. This specific royal blue color is reminiscent of the highly sought-after 1995 royal blue Beanie Baby version, though this larger Buddy version was released around 1998-1999. The plush appears to be in mint condition, currently housed in a protective clear acrylic or plastic display case, which has preserved the fabric's vibrant hue and texture. No visible signs of matted fur, stains, or tag creasing are present. The craftsmanship reflects the standard high-quality mass production of late-1990s Ty collectibles, featuring tightly stitched seams and even stuffing distribution.
