Hello Webkinz Newz readers, Michael Webkinz here with a special report!
When we add a new room theme to the W-Shop, we like to ask for your help with deciding which one to add. The first time we allowed players to choose a new room theme was in 2014. Players had 5 choices to pick from: Sweets & Treats, Plaid, Clothing Store, Toadstool and Lemon Drop. We released a concept drawing of each theme and left it to you to choose by holding a vote, right here on Webkinz Newz.
Players picked the Toadstool theme as their favorite, and it was added to the W-
Shop later that year.
The next theme we released was the Sweet 16 room theme. Once again this was decided by a vote on Webkinz Newz:
Then, we added the hotel theme to the W-Shop. This theme included a variety of items that you could use to build a hotel lobby and guest rooms. We actually released Haunted Hotel items later that year as Halloween prizes, which players could use to “hauntify” their hotels. Spooky!
We also allowed players to vote for our seasonal Halloween and Christmas room themes but the last permanent theme that was added to the W-Shop was the Party Time room theme. This theme was actually suggested by a fan and was picked by players by another vote on Webkinz Newz:
Soon it will be time to add another room theme to the W-Shop which will, once again, be determined by a vote right here on Webkinz Newz. Do you have any suggestions for new room themes that you’d like to see added to the shop? Were there themes that didn’t win in the past that you’d like to vote for again? Let us know by leaving a comment below!
Look for the Toadstool, Sweet 16, Hotel and Party Time room themes in the W-Shop on web & on the Webkinz mobile app.
This has been Michael Webkinz reporting for Webkinz Newz…
Hmm this is a good question! There are a variety of themes that the WShop and/or Curio Shop need: famous/historic landmarks (both natural and man-made), Pawllywood (Hollywood but for pets), Botanical Garden, Insects, Easter, St. Patrick’s Day, Valentine’s Day, Theme Park, exercise gym, fancy natural carved wood, A player-customizable theme (where players can take base furniture and decide which colors/patterns they would like it to be-kind of like the customizable sapling trees), Vegetable, outdoor theme with city buildings, neighborhood theme, outdoor farm/barn/coop, tropical print, seashell, glass/stained glass, mansion, and many more!
I would love to see a Monkey and Monkey theme. I think this would be wildly popular and go nicely with our current monkey and Monkey posters and book ends and little plush. Second choice would ve a pink flamingos theme.
You should make a Wild West Theme
That Webkinz 3000 theme that you were working on last year might be a nice futuristic design?
I’d like to see a library theme.
I really miss my campground from Webkinz Friends….the Camp theme is fun, but I would love an actual Campground for tents and popups and RVs!
This is a winner!! I like the whole Idea of adding to the Campkinz theme. I think a Pop Up where our pets would SLEEP, not just peek out of would be awesome. The 200000 Family point RV is a really nice item, but we only get the one. I would love to see more Bunkbed/RV’s.
This idea has my vote!
Yes! I miss Webkinz Friends!
An outdoor theme.
How about a botanical garden theme. We need more variety in trees and flowers and other types of plants. Maybe an updated Palace theme. More regal like Buckingham. No pink or purples…maybe gold & white with some royal blue with some amazing royal portraits to hang on the walls of Webkinz past regents.
Ooooh, I like this idea a lot! and I definitely agree that more varieties of trees and flowers would be awesome :)
Yes, I would love more trees and flowers!
How about a theme based on “interlocking building blocks?” Although, that plaid idea sounds interesting, too.
I’d like to vote for the lemon drop or clothing store theme again
