About Pouch the Kangaroo

Pouch is a kangaroo made from the same fabric Ty used on Bessie, Bongo, Sly and Tusk.

Eight wrong-name tush tags are documented on Pouch: Bongo, Derby, Gracie, Nanook, Pinky, Ringo, Sting and Valentino. Bongo shares her fabric, so a Bongo tag on a Pouch is the least surprising of the lot. The swap ran the other way often too. Roary, Scoop and Spike have all been found wearing a Pouch tag.

The odd one out is a Pouch with two sewn-in tush tags, one on the front right leg and one in the tail. That is a documented factory oddity rather than a repair, and it is the one worth photographing if you find it.
