With the recent changes in the Curio Shop some members may be confused to how we display the Rare Schedule here on KI. When a Rare is believed to be Deluxe Accounts only we will write in red text next to the Rare, Deluxe Accounts Only. Here is an example of the Rare Schedule for today. The Manic Monitor for sale at 4pm will only be available on Deluxe Accounts.


Remember if you every see any inaccuracy in the Today's Rare Display feel free to PM any Administrator...

Ganz has redecorated the Go Fish Room in the Clubhouse. This is the 5th Room they have updated lately. I wonder if they are planning on doing anymore.

Ganz has confirmed that the Mocha Pup will be available for August 2009. But in a statement on webkinznewz.com they said the following:

The pet that almost didn’t make it

An odd statement for sure. Here are the virtual and plush pictures.

Ganz has officially retired the Webkinz Eagle (HM214) from their line up. At this point though it is not yet sold out so retailers will still be able to purchase them for a limited time but after the current stock of Eagles are sold there will be no more. So make sure to pick one up today if you would like one.

There's a new item to search for in the Woodland Forest.

Today, five new exclusive items and one new POTM were revealed in Webkinz World. Five older exclusives have been retired and are no longer available as adoption gifts: Large Paned Window, Jelly Cactus, So Mod Moped, Toadstool Table, and Blue Wagon.

I would like to thank pl086 for bringing this news to my attention. Earlier today the eStore had 2 new sections a 5 Day Spectacular section and a Media Downloads Section. We do not have anymore information on these 2 sections but Ganz has removed them from the eStore.

During today's maintenance Ganz has covered a lot of ground. I have not yet found the new items but here are the upcoming newspaper articles. Notice they show a red Wagon in the official retirement announcement not a Blue Wagon. To see any of the pictures in more detail just click on the picture.

A new Deluxe option has been added to the curio shop. On Asian accounts, a new Deluxe bar appeared earlier today. Arte also seems to have gone to the dentist and gotten a new set of teeth.



For some members with Deluxe accounts, the vase was only available on
the Deluxe option. For others with no deluxe membership, the rare was
available as usual. Does this mean that the long awaited movie screen
might only be available to Deluxe members? Curio shop goers are abuzz!

Along with the Pearl Pup you can get the Woolly Mammoth to add to your collection this week!

Ganz has confirmed that the Birthstone Pet for July will be the Ruby Retriever. The Ruby Retriever will be for sale from July 1-31.

Ganz has announced that the POTM for September 2009 will be the Webkinz Leopard HM031.

Ganz has announced that the Caring Valley Pet for August will be the Webkinz Brown Dog. Remember not all Brown Dogs will have the extra tag so make sure it has the extra tag if you are looking for a Caring Valley Brown Dog.

Earlier this week KI had a Father's Day contest. Unfortunately we did not recieve enough complete entries to judge a winner so the contest has been cancelled. The prize will be saved for our next contest. Remember KI's 1st Birthday is on July 7th. We have some big plans for that day so keep your ears and eyes peeled. We have one really rare and spectaclur prize set aside for that day.

First, Happy Father's Day to any Dad's out there!
