Brownie The Bear

Brownie the Bear debuted on June 16, 1993, but was immediately phased out owing to a spelling error in his name. Brownie is one of the first beanie babies and is extremely valuable. Brownie has become a collector's item after it was withdrawn and replaced with "Cubbie." He looks just like Cubbie, but his hang tag has a different name. It's impossible to tell if it's a Brownie or a Cubbie without the hang tag. He has a dark trapezoidal nose and black eyes. Cubbie was reintroduced, making bears with the original "Brownie" tag one of the most desirable and rare Beanie Babies available, with those sold fetching a high price.

He doesn't have a birthday or a poem because the original Brownie was only available with 1st generation swing and tush tags. It is distinguished by its brown fur and tan snout. Bears are the most popular beanie babies, but Brownie is considered more valuable because it was included in the first collection.
