They are no newer than around the 6th generation. Some are as old as 4th and 5th generations! Please see the pics for some of the random Beanies you may be getting. Now please NOTE: some of the tags are in perfect condition and some are in not so great shape. I would say about 75% of the tags are in very good condition. All beanies DO have their original tags. Some may look like doubles but are different generations. Cosmetically 95% of these are great...the pink flamingo and one of the unicorns do have stains of them
