These 6th generation heart tags were introduced during March of 2000. The biggest change on this tag is that the previously existing yellow star on the front has been replaced with a holographic star with "2000" written across it in a yellow font.
The inside left lists the four Ty distribution areas: Ty Inc., Ty Canada, Ty Europe and Ty Japan. On the European versions of the "2000" hang tag it says "Ty Europe Gosport, PO13 OFW" instead of just "Ty Europe."
The Beanies name, birthday and poem are now in a smaller font, the back of the tag has a new safety warning, a smaller bar code and a smaller font.
These 6th generation heart tags are found on Beanies with ONLY 9th generation tush tags.
The Zodiac Series Tags are also considered 6th Generation. The 2000 Holiday Teddy Tag is also considered 6th Generation. Also Periwinkle and Sunny's special e-Beanie tags are 6th Generation. Another Special 6th Generation tag is on Ariel.
Only the Issy from the New York Four Seasons Hotel has a 6th generation hang tag, all others have 8th or 9th generation tags.
There are 64 Beanie Babies that can have 6th generation Swing tags!
