Tradee the Bear Plush (8") - Ty - Beanie Babies Series - (2001)

Tradee the Bear is a cheerful vintage Ty Beanie Baby introduced in 2001 as a special character associated with the Beanie Board of Trade. His bright yellow plush body, classic seated teddy-bear shape, black button-style eyes, and oversized black nose give him the unmistakable look of an original Ty collectible. An orange-red mesh ribbon around his neck adds a bold accent, while the distinctive Ty button attached to his chest reinforces his trading-inspired character design.

Born on June 29, 2000, Tradee was introduced on June 26, 2001, with his swing-tag poem centered around the fun of buying, selling, and trading Beanie Babies. His lightweight polyester-fiber and P.E.-pellet construction provides the flexible, bean-filled feel associated with classic Ty plush. As a retired early-2000s collectible, Tradee makes an appealing display piece for vintage toy collections, Ty enthusiasts, and collectors interested in the history and culture surrounding Beanie Babies.
