What makes Ty Indonesian Dual Tush Tagged Rover so Valuable You’ve zeroed in on a true unicorn in the Beanie Baby world. The Ty Indonesian Dual Tush Tagged Rover is a collector’s dream, and its value stems from a perfect storm of rarity, production quirks, and historical intrigue. Here's a breakdown of what makes it so exceptional: ? Key Factors Driving Its Value ?? Indonesian Production Most Beanie Babies were manufactured in China, but Indonesia had a very limited production run, especially in the mid-1990s. Indonesian-made Rovers are far rarer, and collectors prize them for their scarcity and subtle material differences. ?? Dual Tush Tags (U.S. Canadian) This Rover features two tush tags—one U.S. and one Canadian—written in both English and French. Dual tagging is a highly unusual factory oddity, often resulting from transitional production phases or promotional tie-ins. It’s a hallmark of authenticity and uniqueness, especially when both tags are intact and legible. Concluding: That Beanie Babies with Dual Canadian/ US Tush Tags can be More Valuable due to their rarity and the unique labeling requirements they meet. The additional value can vary significantly depending on the specific Beanie Baby and its condition. Generally these Dual -Tagged Beanie Babies can fetch higher prices sometimes 10-50% more value than their Single-Tagged Counterparts. ? Tag Errors Factory Oddities Many of these Rovers come with multiple tag errors, such as misprints, spacing issues, or incorrect dates. These anomalies are not flaws—they’re coveted quirks that elevate the item’s desirability. ? Material Pellet Variations Some versions use PE pellets instead of PVC, which can signal a later production or regional variation. Collectors often seek out these subtle differences for their historical and tactile significance. ? Condition Provenance Listings with MWMT MQ (Mint With Mint Tags, Museum Quality) status command top dollar. Provenance matters—especially if the item was part of a promotional release or has documentation linking it to a specific event or collector. ? Market Impact Recent listings have priced this Rover at $10,000 or more, with sellers emphasizing its investment-grade status. Unlike mass-produced versions, this one is often described as “1 of a kind” or “ultra rare,” with no identical listings to compare against. Prices for this Beanie Baby can range from $15,000 to $20,000, depending on its condition and rarity. These factors create a sense of rarity and exclusivity, driving up demand and prices in the collector's market. If you have one, you might be holding onto a treasure!
