Meet The End, a majestic black bear with piercing black eyes and a sleek black nose. Adorned with a luxurious gold ribbon around his neck and the words "The End" elegantly embroidered in gold thread on his chest, this bear exudes elegance and sophistication.

In a shocking turn of events in 1999, Ty announced the discontinuation of all Beanie Babies production. The news sent collectors into a frenzy, but hope was not lost. Ty released the iconic black The End bear as a symbol of the brand's retirement. However, much to everyone's surprise, Ty eventually decided to resume production, much to the delight of fans everywhere. The End bear may have marked the end of an era, but it also sparked a new chapter in the world of Beanie Babies.
