So, After watching this podkinz at least 3 times and making sure I understand this, there will be floating medallions, but there is no guarantee that you will get the Snowy Retriever in all of them. You still have a 1/25 chance of getting a Snowy Retriever pet medallion. You can only win 10 medallions a day. So, if you win a couple in the arcade, you reduce your chances of getting the Snowy retriever in a floaty-clicky. Unless you have set that randomizer to release more of the Snowy retriever, even the 25 medallions you are being so generous with may not be enough. People will be forced to sacrifice the coins they have built up in other pets to finish getting this one. This is not going to be an easy win.
Hi dixiecup. What I understood is, there will be 4 (or 5 for deluxe) floaty clickies per day in December that are ALWAYS the Snowy Retriever, but the random one per day floaty clicky will also continue, as well as the random medallions from the games. So, for a regular player, if you played every day and found all 4 retriever floaty clickies, you could unlock the Snowy Retriever on December 25 even without the 25 medallion bonus. A deluxe member playing every day could unlock the Retriever by December 20. With the Christmas bonus medallions, a free or full member would need to play a minimum of 19 days in December to unlock the retriever, and a deluxe member must play a minimum of 15 days. Haha that was maybe more than you were asking, but I hope that answers your question and reassures you that it’s very possible!
Hi dixie. The retriever medallions are separate and in addition to the regular medallions. The 4 non and 5 deluxe floaties will all be the retriever. So if you log in each day and get all floats, you will have 124 retriever medallions for non deluxe, and 155 for deluxe, plus another 25 from the Christmas gift. In addition to those, they will still be doing the regular every day medallions where you can get the one floating and the up to 10 for playing games. But you are guarenteed the 4 or 5 retriever medallions a day from the special retriever floats you catch. So catch those floats and get that name ready once December arrives!
Yup! It will be fun and do able ;)
Will there be a Candy Cane collection event this year? So far there has been no mention of this and I really enjoy this event. Will there be furniture that augments this collection?
It’s not on the calendar, so probably not. Which makes me sad, the Candy Cane collection event they’ve done in the past had the best prizes, actual furniture, sometimes the Christmas theme that didn’t win the popular vote was made for the collection event. It has been my favorite part of the Webkinz Christmas celebration, even more than the Clubhouse Countdown with Ms Birdy which is always so wonderful. I feel like they’ve traded this out for pet medallions. Well, it’s certainly less work for the designers.
this theme is so cute
Has anyone unlocked a pet medallion pet yet?
The Snowy Retriever Puppy is sooooooo cute! I can’t wait to adopt her! (I may have already picked out a name :D ).
oooOOHH I’m sO eXciTeD! Sometimes I think I play Webkinz too much, but when I think about it, this game is one of the few things in life that is literally ALWAYS a positive experience, so that’s why I make time for it every day :)
I am so glad you have been inviting members of the art team to your podcast, it is nice to hear from Mike and Eric. Keep up the good work, love the Christmas Cabin theme. Always enjoy the podcasts, thanks Michael and Mandy
I know I totally agree but the end items are not as dusky even if the colors are not what we would have chosen . I wont get everything my self or just enough to store away. Myself I would have changed the colors also . But the walls are so pretty and they can be used i many ways. try to enjoy what you can some time you will find that just right place to place the others , EVEN if in a Halloween camp room with a Ghost floating from a grave behind the bed. Thinking outside the box challenge yourself to fid and make a just perfect room for the items your not happy with. Placemats will cover the table pretty much . Give yourself a year you will fid a place that works for you. Be posative things will work out and the finished colors are a lil bit brighter . Maybe use the chairs as a set next to a lake like they are weathred from rains .
Great podcast, Michael & Mandy, and thank you so much for having Mike and Eric on the show! I really enjoy hearing the artists talk about their work. The Christmas Cabin theme looks fabulous, I love the room you made with it, Michael. I expected that the antique icebox & that iron stove would be perfect with the theme & they really do look great! I’m seriously looking forward to Dec 1st now! Got my Holiday Kitten at the Black Friday sale today and am collecting the beautiful moonbeam mosaic floor tiles, thank you, Eric! The Snowy Retriever puppy is adorable and I’ll definitely be participating in that promotion. December sounds like it will be a great month in Webkinz World! Happy Holidays!
I love the Christmas Cabin theme but wish there was a couch with it! It feels incomplete without a couch. A rug to place in front of the fireplace and rustic Christmas tree with bows and wooden ornaments would have been great too!
I’m with you, this theme should have a couch & rug. A christmas tree with homemade ornaments made of wood, metal, pinecones & other natural things, the star on top of the tree could be made out of pinecones or metal with a candle inside & instead of christmas lights it had candles all over the tree. I’m hoping the wallpaper & flooring won’t be deluxe. I hope that I can get two of that adorable pup & wish that I could send the 25 medallion gift box to my main account from my other accounts. A lot of the time when I get a pet medallion playing a game it’s the blossom fish. Pittiesrule
I’ll bet they add those next year, they usually run the Christmas themes for a second year & add a few new pieces the second time around.
