TV AND MOVIE TY-INS

The release of the Garfield: The Movie in the US was accompanied by the release of the Garfield Beanies. The initial release in May 2004 consisted of six characters from the movie. The first six released were Garfield himself, Odie and Luca the dogs, Nermal and Arlene the cats and Louis the mouse.

In August 2004 these five were joined by Pooky the bear. These all had a copy of the movie poster on the left inside face of their hang tag.

The Garfield set were complemented by the later releases of Cool Cat, Goodnight Garfield, Happy Holidays and Happy Valentine's Day. These were all Garfield in various themed costumes.

The 2006 movie "A Tail of Two Kitties" (aka "The Prince and the Pawper") was celebrated with the release of "His Majesty" - Garfield dressed as a king! A whole new direction in Beanies is Garfield Stuck on You - who has suckers on his paws, and can be fixed to a window! The latest addition to the collection is a Garfield Key-clip!
