hellsbane What are the flaws?

May 23Reply

thedoanut @hellsbane 1st Edition, Valentino w/Brown Nose (flaw), Star on tag (flaw), Hang tag says date "1994" & Tush tag "1993" (flaw), BIRTHDAY SHOULD be FEBRUARY 14 1994 / BUT ERROR ON SWING TAG is ( 2- 14-94 ), missing stamp inside thrash tag-stamps are for mass production-this shows extreme rarity (flaw), red star on hang tag (flaw), Brown Nose not Black (flaw), Brown Nose is crooked (flaw), the right eye is bigger then the lift (flaw),

thedoanut @hellsbane ...circle around ( R) and not TM on tush tag (flaw), the stitching is way off center, from the bottom of his nose (flaw), there isn’t a ”U.K.” after 5TX on swing tag inside address (flaw), SWING TAG No Comma After Oakbrook (flaw), missing period at the end of U.S.A hang tag (flaw),

thedoanut @hellsbane the DOB numbers are spaces: one is too far and the other is too close-Example: 2- 14-94 (flaw), on the hang tag after IL there’s a comma where there should be a period (flaw), on the hang tag No Comma After Oakbrook (flaw),

thedoanut @hellsbane Thank you! Sorry there’s a lot lol. This Valentino is being sold for $45,000 on Etsy, which mine was appraised for (actually more), but I’m taking my chances on this amount 😳🙄

thedoanut @lynderr I really don’t besides my mom and I did research and popped em up here upon reading that we had the one with errors, in a bid to save her home and other life curveballs. Figured it was well worth the try. List yours!!!!!

jillsta22 I have the original unopened 1996 Libearty bear from McDonalds. I saw sales ranging from $2,000-$4,000 on Ebay, etsy. I'd love to sell. Any advise?

thedoanut @myghai57 no its been authenticated by Ty themselves as my uncle works for them and plus, as you obviously aren't aware, this is only relating to the respective year it was made, Google 1996 Valentino the Bear if you're seriously that bored to come on to this post and say something LOLOLOL. This is the one as was produced in 1996. I have the number for my uncle at Ty, if you're losing sleep over it, I'll share it. Thank you and HAPPY 2020!
