Ariel the Bear TY Beanie Buddies | Mint Heart & Tush Tags

Meet Ariel the Bear — a beautiful aqua-blue Ty Beanie Buddy created in memory of Ariel Glaser, whose artwork inspired the embroidered flower-and-sun design on the bear's chest. Released in 2000, Ariel helped raise funds for pediatric AIDS research and awareness through the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, making this one of Ty's most meaningful commemorative bears. Its soft pastel coloring, elegant ribbon, and heartfelt story have made Ariel a favorite among collectors.
