I wanted to thank everyone who left us feedback for the first set of Trick or Treat Street concept drawings. I read over each comment and was really impressed with your suggestions. There was a lot of focus on the Halloween homes, in particular, the colors and look & feel of each home. I really like how the concept drawing for the costume shop turned out (you’ll see it in this post). I think that we will model the homes to match the look and feel of the shop, but still keep the bright colors that were used for each one. This way, they will look less “haunted” but remain colorful and feel as though they belong in a charming neighborhood. In any case, I really like the suggestion of triggering a doorbell sound effect and having your pet say “Trick or treat!” when you click on each home.
Now, I’d like to share the concept drawings for the second half of the Trick or Treat room theme. Please leave your feedback in the comments section below. Tell us what you like or don’t like about each item or how you would make them better. Just like before, we will be reading each comment carefully and take all your suggestions into consideration:
Here’s another look at the bench that will be including in the theme. Don’t worry, “Halloween” will be spelled correctly on the final item:
Here is the costume shop I was referring to earlier. The shop will be 3 tiles in length, so there won’t be any gaps along your yard if you decide to add a door to the room:
The idea behind this tree is that it will change slightly when you rotate it. 3 of the rotations will feature unique Halloween decorations and the last one will simply be a plain, fall colored tree that could be used for any type of room design:
I really like how this white picket fence turned out. The expressions on each of the jack-o’-lanterns faces are priceless:
Finally, here’s a look at the novelty gravestone that you’ll be able to use to decorate your front lawns. Similar to the tree, this item will also change slightly when rotated in room:
How do you think this theme is coming along? Let us know in the comment section below and stay tuned for your first look at the final items that will be modeled in 3D. I plan on showing the first half on Saturday, August 31st…
I am loving this theme! So many great ideas coming to life. I love the fence, hope that it can be used in the room and not just on the edges. The costume shop is awesome; at first I did not like the colors of the buildings but this one is really nice. Still hoping for some crows/ravens, and black cats. Thanks for this great theme.
Hey Michael, these drawings are great. I am a costume designer by profession, and absolutely adore the Costume Shop! Is it also for the back edge of the room only? I ask because it looks kind of 3-dimensional to me in the concept drawing. Anyway, I love it. Everything else looks great, love the rotatable tree and the picket fence with the jack-o’-lanterns. And the tombstone decoration is perfect! And I don’t know, “Holloween” on the bench is kind of charming…
Very cute!
i love everything so far. I can’t wait. I hope the fence will be able to be placed anywhere, not just along the edge so that a space can be sectioned off inside. Maybe a graveyard. Woo Hoo or should I say Woo BOO! I wasn’t around for buildings before so I am super excited for these.
Love everything so far! This is definitely more what I wanted as opposed to super spooky! I love the costume shop and think it looks really cute and charming! Also love that the decorations can change when you rotate them. Super excited for this new theme!
I hope that this room theme is not Deluxe.
Honeyleaf – I’m sure the majority of the theme will be available to all, but it’s very possible that a few pieces will be Deluxe only. However, please remember that many deluxe players in our Webkinz community are quite willing to help others get those items. :-)
Exactly like Alphaowlbear says: As long as the deluxe items are kinzpostable I’ll be happy to send you those. Just let me know your username.
That was actually my least favorite but whatever it still looks kinda cool
This theme is going to be great! But I still don’t really like the bright colors of the homes/buildings. It just doesn’t seem like they go with/ match the rest of the items, and it would stick out (not in a good way). This is mostly because everything else is colored the way they would look the real world, and nothing else in in the theme has those colors. I think they would look better if they looked like normal homes/buildings with spooky decorations on them.
Also, if the Costume Shop is still going to be colored, maybe use more Fall/Halloween colors to match the homes, because right now the colors make it look like a Spring/Easter building with pumpkins in the front.
Ah awesome! Thank you so much listening to those of us that didn’t want as much spooky stuff! I really love this set of items, especially the tree. I can see the being so pretty without the cobwebs and spiders! I’m also glad that you listened about the houses and made them more realistic. The costume shop is really cute, and I’m sure the other houses will look just as nice now that they’ll be altered! =) Very happy with the results so far. I can’t wait to see the rest of the items!
I think all of the Halloween room items should be rotated so that one of the rotations are plain can be used in different room themes.
That would be awesome! I’m not a fan of the spiderwebs and stuff.
I’m glad the tree rotates so you can use it in any room!
