Here's what makes the Ty Dual Tush Tagged Hippity,Ty Dual Tush Tagged Hoppity, Ty Dual Tush Tagged Floppity and Ty Cousin "Hippie" Set so valuable
"You’ve hit on a quartet that’s quietly legendary in the Beanie Baby world. The Dual Tush Tagged Hippity, Hoppity, Floppity, and Cousin Hippie set isn’t just a charming bunny family—it’s a convergence of rarity, production quirks, and collector mythology. Here's why they command such reverence:"
Dual Tush Tags (U.S. Canadian) These bilingual tags (English/French) are extremely scarce and were only produced in limited runs. Their presence signals a cross-market release, adding historical and geographic depth.
PVC Pellets – 1st Editions All four are confirmed to have PVC pellets, which collectors associate with early production and higher value.
MWMT MQ Condition “Mint with Mint Tags” and “Museum Quality” condition elevate the set into investment-grade territory.
Tag Errors Oddities These include misspellings like “ORIGIINAL” and “Suface Wash,” spacing anomalies, and copyright variants (e.g., Ty Deutschland vs. Ty Canada). While common errors don’t always add value, in this case, they’re part of a rare production batch.
Limited Production Window These were released during a narrow timeframe in 1996, and the dual-tagged versions were not mass-produced like their single-tag counterparts.
Ribbon Variations The original lavender Floppity with a double-sided ribbon is especially prized. It’s a subtle but telling detail that signals early production.
Cousin Hippie’s Role in the Set
Hippie, often seen as the psychedelic cousin to the pastel trio, adds a narrative twist. While not always included in the bunny trio, pairing Hippie with the dual-tagged rabbits creates a story-driven display that evokes themes of family, contrast, and generational flair. Hippie’s tie-dye fabric and similarly rare tag variants make it a natural complement.
Market Impact
Listings as high as $40,000 have appeared for complete more common 3 buuny sets in pristine condition.
The Antique Malls Top 25 Guide ranks even single-tagged versions in the top 10, which underscores how much more valuable the dual-tagged sets are.
