LANCE the Leopard isn’t just a cute plush — it’s part of the Ty Peek‑A‑Boos line of smartphone holders. These are small, soft plush toys designed to hold your phone hands‑free while adding personality and charm to your desk, bedside table, or shelf.
Design & Appearance
Animal Theme: Leopard — multicolored fur with a spotted pattern.
Eyes & Facial Features: Glittery pink button‑style eyes and a bright pink nose on a white muzzle with pink stitched mouth details give Lance that classic Beanie Boos big‑eye, adorable look.
Color Palette: Mixed tones, often including pinks and neutrals that make it vibrant and fun.
Size: Approximately 4–6 inches tall — small but perfectly sized for phones and desks.
Functionality & Features
Smartphone Stand: Designed to hold your phone upright in landscape or portrait orientation. It lets you watch videos, FaceTime, read, or display your screen without holding the device manually.
Hands‑Free Convenience: Great for desks, nightstands, kitchens, classrooms, and anywhere you want your phone propped up.
Screen Cleaner Base: The bottom of the plush is made with a microfiber or soft fabric that can gently wipe smudges and fingerprints off your screen — a trademark feature of Ty Peek‑A‑Boos phone holders.
Universal Compatibility: Works with most smartphones regardless of brand or size (larger “tablet” Peek‑A‑Boos exist for bigger devices).
Collectible Details
Line: Part of the Ty Peek‑A‑Boos series — a playful offshoot of the classic Beanie Boos line focused on functionality as well as collectibility.
Style Number: 00014 (for the phone holder version).
Release Information: Introduced around January 2017 and later retired — making it of interest to collectors.
Tag Notes: Often comes with a swing tag and tush tag indicating generation/type, useful for collectors tracking condition and authenticity.
Why People Like It
