36421 Wasabi

TY Beanie Boos – Wasabi the Baboon is a medium‑sized Beanie Boos plush (~9.25 inches tall) representing a colorful baboon (mandrill) character from TY’s popular Beanie Boos line. Wasabi was first released in April 2018 and quickly became a favorite for his striking look and fun personality.

Key Features

Character & Appearance

• Animal: Mandrill baboon — part of the monkey family.

• Color & Details: Wasabi has a mottled grey body, with a bright red and pale blue muzzle, black mask, and a distinctive fluffy yellow beard.

• Eyes: True to Beanie Boos style, he features large glittery purple button eyes that give the plush extra sparkle and charm.

• Hands & Feet: Black hands and feet with small ears add to his expressive design.

Size & Build

• Medium Size: Approximately 9.25 inches tall — larger than the regular 6″ Boos and perfect for cuddling or display.

• Soft Plush Fabric: Covered in soft TY plush with a bean pellet body that’s comfortable to squeeze and flexible enough to pose.

• Glitter Effects: Sparkly eyes and bright muzzle colors help Wasabi stand out in any collection.

Tags & Collectibility

• Birthday: Wasabi’s official birthday is May 18 — this is printed on the TY heart swing tag.

• Tag Poem: His tag includes a fun short poem:
  “My name in the jungle is spunky monkey
  And all of my tricks are really funky.”

• Mint Condition: Plush with original TY tags (“Mint With Mint Tags” or MWMT) is considered more collectible and often sells for more than versions without tags.

Care Info

• Surface Clean Only: Typical for TY plush — gentle wiping with a damp cloth is recommended to keep him clean.

Who It’s For

• TY Collectors: A solid addition to any Beanie Boos collection due to his unique mandrill design.

• Kids: A fun, soft plush suitable for play (recommended ages 3+ due to small parts like button eyes).

• Gift Idea: Makes a great birthday or holiday gift — especially if in mint condition with tags.
