Hello Webkinz fans!
As many of you may have noticed, we have not retired any Webkinz plush pets in some time. Yet many of our plush pets have become very hard to find in stores. This is because we have a large number of Webkinz pets that are completely sold out from Ganz. Yes, we’ve fallen behind on our retirements and have made a plan to get all caught up!
Starting on July 27th, we will be retiring a new pet every weekend! Owners of these pets will get extra activities with bonus chances to win virtual prizes. A different activity will be made available on Saturday and Sunday.
To get the process started, we have gone ahead and retired all pets that were Holiday, Chase or made especially for a retail partner (such as Justice or Cracker Barrel). These pets will not be part of the retirement events.
Our new styles of Webkinz plush are now more collectible than ever. If you want a specific pet, let your favorite Webkinz retailer know, as new styles won’t last long. You can also find new Webkinz for purchase online at ToysRUs.com, Amazon.com and other fine retailers.
To keep you better informed, we will be posting articles here on Webkinz Newz when pets sell out, so you don’t miss your chance.
For our Webkinz Signature series fans, we will be releasing our final Signature plush this December. We can’t say exactly which pet it is, but it will be a fan-favorite dog that we haven’t made yet in Signature form. We’d like to thank all of our Signature collectors for supporting this great line since 2009.
So thank you again for being such great fans. We have some amazing new pets coming in the second half of 2013 that we really hope you enjoy.
Have fun!
- Your furry friends in Webkinz World.
Okay, Ganz I don’t want to be rude, but why are you discontinuing the Signatures? You NEVER gave us that explanation in the post. I really just LOVE Webkinz Signatures, I’ve been collecting Webkinz for FOUR years. I got my first one, and honestly that was the best thing ever for me, I love all of my Webkinz. Many girls AND boys LOVE the Signatures, that’s all that I care about, I’m sorry. Please answer my questions, I want to know so I can tell my friends. I want a reasonable explanation for this!
“It’s the ushering end of the Signature era!” –my Webkinz fox, Fixy, referring to one of his favorite songs.
Nooo!! D: Webkinz signatures were my favorite! :’(
please ganz don’t stop making webkinz pets
I have to get a Strawberry Leopard somehow, even if that means I can’t get an Equestria Girls Fluttershy. :(
The OPOSSUM is the best Webkinz in all of Kinzville!
I would like to see a signature Collie or Black Lab. I think they only had a small signature Black Lab. Or maybe a Dalmatian.
will the new pets only be available in limited amounts?
Hmm….. Prehaps your right. Some pets need to retire. What will happpen to the players who own that pet allready? will it get a gift?
No but you get 5 spree rolls and a chance to play the sailboat game!!!
Very sad that the Sig. line is over. I hope the last puppy will be the love puppy! JEWELS
As Crazy as that sounds, yes! Maybe they will do a retired pet, because everybody is rather upset about this but if it was a love puppy, cheeky dog or a retired dog like a collie that would rock. But will that pet only be released for a month?
I would get a signature tangerine cheeky cat or even a golden cheeky dog!!! I hope it is a cheeky cat because I have wished for it for like over 6 months now!!!
