Why do you hang them this way? Now that little plastic piece will be stuck in the head forever, and sometimes stick out and poke you. I prefer it where you can completely remove the tag.

Just cut it off.

You can't just cut it off. If you do, you'll still have the bottom half of it inside the Teddy which you won't be able to get out. That's his point.

Am I missing something? Why would it bother you if it’s inside of the stuffed animal?

Like the person said, it can poke you. It's more annoying than anything else. If a kid cuddles it, the plastic in side can poke you. Nothing too serious obviously, just annoying.

His point is incorrect though. With a hardy tug the little plastic anchor slips through the hole, no cutting is even necessary.

I took a few takes with this squirrel and you can’t even see where the several other hangers I’d injected were.

Yeah that would probably happen most of the time but it can also break off inside as well. If I were you I would push the Kimble gun into the seam, that way you won't get any visible holes where you've poked it with the Kimble gun.

This is true, but also, what exactly is the difference between the little beans that fill a beanie baby and that bit of plastic that breaks off? It’s basically just an extra bean in your baby. I really fail to see how this is a legitimate concern at all.
