Thank you so much for all your great comments and feedback on the Medallion Pet finalists. After much discussion, and taking your feedback into account, the Creative Team has selected as our new Medallion Pet an animal that is completely new to Webkinz World.
We are excited to announce that the new Medallion Pet to be released in April will be…
Kiwi Bird by lolypop1412
Congratulations lolypop1412! We can’t wait to see the Webkinz artists’ take on this adorable pet!
But this cute flightless bird still needs a PSI and PSF! What do you think would make a good item and food for the Kiwi? Let us know in the comments.
Lolypop1412 and all of the finalists – look for a message at the email address associated with your GanzWorld account by end of day, Monday, January 14, 2019.
Please note: due to technical issues we are experiencing, part of the prize has been updated from 10 Any Pet Medallions to 10 random Pet Medallions.
Love the Kiwi!
Congrats! My favorite was the Aurora Tiger
Aw, I could’ve sworn the Aurora Tiger would win. Man, that’s disappointing.. I really liked that and the Cookie Doe and were really hoping to see one of those as a pet. =( Well, still, congratulations to Lolypop1412!
It is adorable and unique! I would have been happy with any of the finalists that were chosen, and I hope that we will have the opportunity to see them again some time in the future. You should all be very proud of your wonderful creativity! I think that the kiwi bird PSI should be a ‘Kiwi Kopter’ (what all of the flightless birds are driving this year!), and it’s PSF should be ‘crayfish casserole’ with various invertebrates in a nice casserole dish with a sprig of parsley :p or ‘grub grub’ (I’m not going to describe it – use your imagination, because I get a little queasy just thinking about it! LOL) Whatever the team chooses, I know that this cute little pet will be a welcome new addition to WW!
All submissions were great, but I love this unique bird. Someone mentioned the are found around mangroves, I did not know that. Maybe a mangrove tree, or a few trees to make a seaside or bog/swamp forest in lieu of wallpaper. Congrats to the winner.
I can’t wait to get this pet. Its psi could have something to do with flying like an airplane or an old fashioned aviator outfit since kiwis are flightless. I like acoolaunt’s idea for the psi being a large wooden kiwi bird with Maori artwork on it, too. Its psf should be something that kiwis eat in real life like nuts, seeds or crayfish instead of something kiwifruit related. Pittiesrule
Food : Kiwi Lime Pie and item can be a Sydney Surf Board ( Ride-able Surf board)
PSI – Where does this bird SLEEP ! I was thinking a tree with a sleeping HOLE !! PSF – These birds eat small bugs and worms anything that can crawlHow about a LOG BUFFET !! Small log sprinkled with little tidbits of foods ( small crawly bugs)
I’m going to second this comment – MonkeySmile’s ideas sound perfect for the Kiwi!
I like the PSI idea.
I wanted the tapir, but this is a really cute entry.
Awe I am so excited for this entry. Congrats! My favorite was the mole, but my second was the Kiwi Bird. I am excited to start earning medallions for this adorable webkinz. Congrats!!! :)
