Lily is an interesting Puffkin. Her birthday is either 2/28/97 or the "Leap"
date of 2/29/97. Her style number is #6600. The older and more rare version of Lily is
with a 2/29/97 birthday (First generation tag only so check your UPC#) and bright green
feet (look carefully at the picture on the left). After the first few runs of Lily, Swibco
decided to change the foot pad color to "moss green" instead of the "bright
green". Swibco also realized that 1997 wasn't a leap year so they changed the tag to
the current birthdate of 2-28-97. The interesting thing is that some of the leftover
2-29-97 birthdate tags were put on the "newer" Lily's with the moss green feet
and so another variation (probably the most rare because of quantity manufactured) would
be Leap Year Lily with 2-29-97 birthday and moss green feet.
A real Leap Year Lily will only have a dark purple tag and is usually priced from $40 to $70 on the secondary market. Regular Lily will have the "moss green feet" and 2-28-97 birthday that is on all current Lily's. Regular Lily with moss green feet can be purchased at retail as she is a current Puffkin. You may see these special Puffkins described in this manner:
Leap Year Lily (2/29/97) with Bright Green Feet would be L/Y Lily BGF
Leap Year Lily (2/29/97) with Moss Green Feet would be L/Y Lily MGF
Lily with bright green feet and 2-28-97 birthdate is reported to exist, although this
could easily be "tag switching" since it does not make sense that it could be
possible. Do not pay a premium price for a Lily with bright green feet and 2-28-97
birthday.
Lily with moss green feet, without 2-29-97 birthdate is the regular, current Lily.
