Ty Maple the Bear is a collectible Beanie Baby that has gained significant value over the years due to several factors:

1. Rarity: Maple the Bear was released as a McDonald's exclusive in Canada, making it less common than other Beanie Babies. Some versions, especially those with errors or unique tags, are particularly rare

2. Condition: Beanie Babies in mint condition, especially those still in their original packaging, are more valuable

3. Errors: Some Maple the Bear Beanie Babies have production errors, such as upside-down flags or incorrect tags, which make them highly sought after by collectors.

4. Popularity: Maple the Bear was part of the original Beanie Baby craze of the 1990s, and items from that era tend to hold nostalgic value for collectors.

5. 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. ”
