Ty Beanie Baby plush toy 'Gobbles the Turkey'

Gobbles the Turkey is a Ty Beanie Baby released in 1996 during the height of the Beanie Baby collecting craze. This plush turkey features the distinctive red and brown coloration with a yellow beak, and comes with the iconic heart-shaped Ty tag that was characteristic of the original Beanie Babies line. Beanie Babies became a worldwide collecting phenomenon in the mid-to-late 1990s, with certain rare or retired models becoming highly sought after by collectors. Gobbles is particularly popular among Beanie Baby enthusiasts and holiday-themed collectors who seek out Thanksgiving-related items. Some versions with tag errors or production variations are especially valued by serious collectors who appreciate the historical significance of these minor manufacturing differences.
