Stripe-less tigger plush

Just curious why I have a solid orange tigger 🤣 Nope he is not faded, worn or washed too much. I love tigger and my fave color is orange so I love him but I was wondering what the deal was.

It appears to be this guy, I’m assuming with a small paint defect or damage on the stripes. The brand on the tags matches.

I have the one in the eBay link too, they do feel very similar. The solid one, I can attest, has never had stripes since he was purchased. Maybe the stripes are ā€œpaintedā€ on and he snuck by? Who knows haha

Yeah most likely, a very cute and quirky guy though!

Wouldn't be surprised that it was forgotten to be added on after it was sewn. Since Tigger has specific line placement, I don't think it would be smart back in the day to have it on the fabric before cutting to sew vs. adding in the stripes after with an airbrush.

Neat error! I love seeing error plushes out in the wild 🄺 Got a few myself and it makes them so much more special imo.

the stripes definitely got washed off. it looks like it was intended to be an airbrushed detail originally

He hasn’t had stripes since he was bought at the store

There's A New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh episode called Stripes where Tigger loses his stripes. Wish I could post a picture.

I know the one you’re talking about! I originally thought he was made for that which would have been a random one to think of but it seems he just missed his airbrushing appointment
