Please come visit me for unique home décor and gift items offered on my website www.thechromecactusboutique.com! This is Mardi Gras style #40199. He was introduced on 01/21/2005 and retired about 2 months later on 03/24/2005. Vivid silver glitter-flecked violet plush with matching ribbon, a shimmery magenta masquerade mask and "Mardi Gras" and "2005" embroidered on his feet. The poem on his swing tag reads: "It’s time for the parade to start So grab a mask and play your part We’ll dance around and have great fun Come on and join in everyone!" The perfect bear for this time of year! Always kept in a non-smoking environment, Mardi Gras is in mint condition with a mint tag that has been kept in a tag protector. I am listing Beanie Babies from my collection as time allows; if you are looking for a particular Beanie, please reach out! Thank you.
