Ty Beanie Baby “Kicks” Bear (1998) – Football Edition with Original Tag & Protector

A playful tribute to the world’s most beloved sport, this original “Kicks” Beanie Baby by Ty Inc. captures the energy and optimism of the late 1990s football era.

Crafted in vibrant green plush and adorned with a finely embroidered football motif, this charming bear evokes a sense of movement and youthful spirit. The original Ty heart tag remains attached and is preserved within a protective casing, maintaining its crisp presentation and collector appeal.

Dated August 16, 1998, this piece reflects a time when Beanie Babies became a global phenomenon, making it a nostalgic keepsake for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Presented in excellent condition, with clean fabric, strong colour, and a well-kept tag, it offers both decorative charm and collectible value.

Whether styled in a themed display, gifted to a football enthusiast, or added to a curated Beanie Baby collection, this piece delivers character and nostalgic appeal in equal measure.
