Special Report with Michael Webkinz

 

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…

    Well the powers that be didn’t like my statement that I left around 3a.m. I really don’t like the way they choose which items to post or not. I was just leaving a message about the new theme and how much fun it will be. I also left a message for a fellow Webkinz friend TropicalGirl999 about all her helping out others need if she has item. I thought sharing items from each other was a good lesson for pets to learn. I guess I was raised wrong!! I’m sorry that a company won’t let you items. I’m guessing that they won’t print this second message!!!!

    I love the old Rainbow and Big City Loft theme ideas! I also agree with somebody down below who suggested a simple black and white theme. That would be very versatile, and would mix and match really well!

    I would like to see either a Retro room theme, a Bookworm room theme, or a Treasures room theme. The retro room theme would, of course, be old fashioned. I’m thinking comfy old armchairs with a floral or paisley print. The furniture in the bookworm theme would be covered in books and there would also be a bookcase, perhaps a writing desk too. The Treasures room theme would have lots of gold, with diamonds and other jewels. There would also be some ancient artifacts on a shelf. (Think Ariel’s collection from the Little Mermaid.)

      I like the idea of a Bookworm theme as well. I have a Bookworm bed and would love to build more on it. I have been thinking about using the Book Nook sofa from the Sweet 16 theme. Another thing that would be nice are bookshelves that we can actually store books in. I wouldn’t necessarily ask that the older bookshelves be re-coded (wouldn’t turn it down!) but if some of the new bookshelves could be coded from the beginning to store books that would be a plus. Many of my pets ask for books and puzzles and it would be nice to have a place to store them.

      Hey, a bookworm theme would be cool!

    • Marshy2u says:

      Thanks so much guys! I love to read so a Bookworm theme would be a dream come true! Maybe we could even have one or two new storybooks?

    What I would love to see instead of a new theme would be to have some new “basic” pieces released that would work in any theme. Basic pieces of furniture like beds, couches and chairs in various colors and designs would be nice. Plus some new, different trees and flowers for outside rooms. I like to make my own themes, apparently.

    • huggablehoneys4ever says:

      Yes!! We need more non-themed windows, light gray wallpaper (and other solid colors that aren’t as bright and textureless as the original wall colors), dark hardwood floors, and more plants. I wish they’d release more wshop furniture that doesn’t fit a specific room theme

    I would love to see another underwater theme soon! The two we have in the W-shop I’ve already used so many times!

  6. FUJ6F36Z says:

    I think a wolf theme would be cool

  7. Ttgbird14 says:

    A firehouse would be awesome! Even a police station would be cool too.

  8. NewKinz22 says:

    Maybe an Arcade room or gamers den with bean bag chairs, a tv, cool string lights, a snack counter, stuff like that

    The campground idea is a good one!! The RV bunk beds would fit there perfectly! With a huge campfire pit!!
