NOTE!!! A More Common Blue Green Eyed PE Pellet Iggy is featured as number 10 on www.Wealthy Gorilla.com's top 20 MOST EXPENSIVE BEANIES IN THE WORLD Beanie Babies List for $15,000.00! With the Following Bottom Line: Iggy the Iguana is one of the most expensive Ty Beanie Babies ever sold, fetching a price of $15,000.
The problem? Iggy the Iguana is sometimes mistaken for Rainbow the Chameleon. Iggy has spikes along their back, while Rainbow the Chameleon doesn’t. Iggy the Iguana is valuable when it has a rare 1997 tag, indicating the original release.
Without an Existing Identical listing to compare it to: Know that according to Microsoft's AI The Ty Indonesian-made Dual Tush Tagged Iggy is a standout for several reasons that elevate it from quirky iguana to elite collectible:
Why It’s So Valuable
Limited Indonesian Production
Most Beanie Babies were made in China, so Indonesian-made versions are significantly rarer. That alone gives them a scarcity premium.
Dual Tush Tags (U.S. Canadian)
This Iggy features both U.S. and Canadian tush tags—written in English and French—which is an unusual and highly sought-after combination. Dual-tagged items often fetch 10–50% more than their single-tagged counterparts.
Tag Errors Manufacturing Oddities
Some of these Iggys come with:
Misspellings like “Oakbrook” instead of “Oak Brook”
Extra spaces or punctuation quirks on swing tags
PE pellets in a 1997 tag (when PVC was standard), suggesting a transitional or error piece
Unique Physical Traits
Collectors have noted versions with:
Bright pastel tie-dye patterns
Red eyes, no tongue, no collar
Offset stitching or uneven eyes
These quirks make each piece feel one-of-a-kind .
Historical Significance
The 1997 tag places it in the early wave of Beanie Baby mania, and some listings even cite alpha-numeric birthdates (e.g., “August 12, 1997”)—a detail used only on first editions.
Market Demand
Some pristine examples have been listed for $10,000 or more, especially when they include tag protectors and are in mint condition.
These factors create a sense of rarity and exclusivity, driving up demand and prices in the collector’s market. Making this Most Valuable Mint Iconic Original Mint Condition Limited Production Indonesian Ty Dyed, Brite Neon, Red Eyed, PVC 1st Edition, Dual U.S. / Canadian Tush Tagged, Iggy With Oddities / Unique Features and Multiple Tag Rarities a Serious Collectors item whose value will only continue to rise!
