TY PHIL the Minion Beanie Bouncer - Minions 10cm Soft Plush Ball

The Phil Beanie Bouncer is a 10cm bouncy plush from Ty, combining a soft fabric cover with a rubber core that gives it real spring.

About Phil

This is an officially licensed Minions product, so Phil is finished in the character's proper colours and markings rather than a generic design. The Minions are pure slapstick appeal and land well with children who are slightly too old for preschool licences but not yet into anything more serious.

Why children like it

• High-bounce rubber core wrapped in a soft plush cover
• Palm-sized, so it is easy for smaller hands to catch and throw
• Doubles as a cuddly toy when the bouncing is done
• Genuine Ty product, supplied with the red Ty Heart swing tag

Gift ideas

The smaller Ty lines have always worked well as low-cost gifts: stocking fillers, party bags, reward charts, or the sort of small present you pick up without planning to.

Size guide

Beanie Bouncers sit apart from the rest of the Ty range because they are built for active play. They are around 10cm across, roughly palm-sized, and the rubber core means they need a bit of open space. For a child who wants something purely to cuddle, a regular Beanie Boo is the better fit.

Care instructions

Care is straightforward: surface wash with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then air dry. Avoid the washing machine and the tumble dryer, both of which will shorten its life.

About Ty plush

Ty has been making collectible plush since 1986 and remains one of the few toy brands children recognise by the tag alone. The red heart-shaped swing tag is the quickest way to tell a genuine Ty product from a lookalike, so it is worth leaving on if the toy is being collected rather than played with.

Suitable for ages 3 and over. Not suitable for children under 3 years due to small parts, which present a choking hazard. Retain the swing tag information for future reference.
