Poem

Some say I'm a sight to beholdWith both my mane and coat of goldAnd I know how to calmly sneakThat's why I'm good at hide-and-seek!
From the Ty swing tag

About Midas the Lion – 2012 Version

Midas the Lion – 2012 Version is a reissue of an earlier Beanie Baby 2.0 release, style 42028, brought back under a new style number. Ty kept the same poem on both versions but gave the 2012 reissue a different birth date, so the birthday on the tag is the quickest way to tell which release you are holding.
