Players who manage to complete the Newz Week Challenge by midnight, Saturday, April 29, will win a Webkinz Newz KinzCash Coin and a Webkinz Newz Building:
Do you visit Webkinz Newz regularly, follow our social media posts, watch our YouTube channel and Podkinz videos? If so, you probably know Mandy, Michael, Sally and Steve Webkinz. As a special treat for Webkinz Newz Week, they will be handing out signed versions of their action figures in the KinzChat Trading Room from Tuesday, April 25, to Friday, April 28!
Two Newz Team members will be featured in the KinzChat Trading Room every day, but they’ll only be there for one hour, so please make your visit quick, so other players have the chance to get a signed action figure.
Here’s how to get yours:
- Click on the KinzChat Trading Room when a Newz Team member is scheduled to appear in the Clubhouse
- Click on the Newz Team member to invite them to trade
- The Newz Team member will offer their signed action figure for trade. Drag any item into a trading slot and complete the trade to receive your action figure. Make sure your offer is something of little value, like a piece of food, because you won’t get it back once the trade has been completed!
Once your trade has been completed, please leave the KinzChat Trading Room immediately, so that other players have a chance to access the room and meet a Newz Team Member.
Here is a look at the schedule:
Don’t forget to log in to your Webkinz Classic account on April 29, which is Webkinz Day and the final day of Newz Week. You will receive your 2023 Webkinz Day Gift Box as soon as you log in on April 29!

Sally Webkinz please help I went to the trading room and traded with Michael Webkinz to get a Signed Michael Webkinz Action Figure was thrilled to get it. Logged out of my account and completed the rest of my accounts to get the action figure. When I went back to the account to sign in and finish my daily activities and spin the wheels I was not able to sign in. It said You have been permanently banned from this account for Violating Our User Agreement. I have done nothing wrong to violate the user agreement and never have in all my years of playing Why would I have been banned from my account? How do I get this corrected so that I am able to log back into my account.
Please contact webkinzsupport@ganz.com
Thanks for replying so quickly email has been sent hopefully this will be resolved
The service from webkinz support was excellent. The problem has already been fixed they investigated and unbanned my account. I hope this has nothing to do with the problem in the past when players were getting banned from their accounts while in the trading room. I usually do not use the trading rooms I am only going to get the Signed Action Figures from the Webkinz Newz Host. Still don’t understand why I was banned in the first place when I did nothing wrong.
Wow…How were you able to find any of the Newz team members. I have been trying for 3 days and have yet to find 1 of them. I have been playing since 2006 and this has been the most frustrating event in all of my time on Webkinz.
For those who have found a News Team Member, what is the trick? Day three here, five, separate hours spent in and out of the Kinz Chat Trading Rooms.
We were told to go in and out of the rooms because there are several different rooms. The Webkinz in the Trading Rooms may change, but there is still no sign of a News Team Member. Please help! We were excited about this, but no News Team members ANYWHERE, EVER. Now, no chance of seeing Michael. Missed him both times. Very frustrating.
I tried for another hour today to meet Michael. Did not even see him AGAIN. This is so disappointing and frustrating. If anyone has extras I would appreciate it. Username : spotsofbeauty
Day three and I have spent an hour trying to find a host. It’s impossible because when people find them they remain in the room they are in. It upset me because it seems like whenever Michael finally comes into a room I go in, he disappears after one trade. It’s nearly impossible to obtain these figurines and It is really discouraging. Please fix this
Haven’t been able to see any of the hosts any of the days so far, despite going back in and out of the trade room and even trying the kinz chat plus trade room. Was really hoping to get a signed figure :(
another hour gone, no figure in hand. if anyone has an extra please send one to me!! my user is fawdea too. happy for anyone that got one!!
It’s impossible to get to the hosts even if you do somehow manage to get into the trading room. I give up.
I have gone to the trading room waited in a room, switching from room to room, looking for an hour for each host Mandy Webkinz, Sally Webkinz and Steve Webkinz so far with out be able to see the host. I checked the list of players’ name each room I entered their names did not appear I also have Sally on my friends list her name was not on for the alloted hour. This is disappointing not being able to get the Signed Action Figures from the Webkinz Newz Host. This event is a big flop for players that take the time to look for the host to get the signed action figures are not able to find them in return just come up empty handed. This is similar to the event with the signed Newz Posters a few years back that was also a disaster you could not find the host to get the poster. This event, getting signed action figures from the Webkinz Newz host would be enjoyable and funfor all if the WKN Host was in the Kinzville Park for the alloted hour. Players could click on the host be awarded a signed action figure and go on there merry way. Instead of wasting the time looking for host in a trading room(s) that you can not find. :(
I use a separate account for these trading events. It’s not on anyone’s friends list.
Thanks for replying Sally I was wondering why I could find you I have Michael on my list as well have not had a problem finding him both days
I have jumped rooms non stop,i’ve sat in rooms,i’ve watched people piled on top of each other,it then freezes,i’ve seen the room say there’s 10 people in it,but only see 2,i’ve never seen anything so badly planned! i mean,NO help! will the host jump rooms? KinzChat plus? it’s sad,i’ve tried every day now & i know there’s a lot of other people who will never get one of these signed figures like myself.
This Trading Room event to receive a signed version of the team member action figures has proven a HUGE disappointment and an extremely frustrating waste of time in waiting on any of the team members to show. To expect players to wait around for an hour each time, hoping that the designated team member for that time slot will show (which they haven’t) or to constantly switch rooms on the off chance that the team member will be there is beyond ridiculous. And, on top of that, if I’m understanding this correctly, even IF the team member should finally appear, there’s no guarantee that you will get the opportunity to trade if each of the players who have patiently waited are all trying to make a trade at the same time. Also quite annoying is the fact that, while you’re there waiting endlessly, you have to continuously field all the unwanted invitations to trade from other players in the room. There needs to be a far better solution than this to give away “special edition” prizes…one that is equally fair to ALL players, not just a select lucky few.
I am so disappointed in this event. I have wasted 2 hours of my only day off this week going from room to room to room trying to find someone that is never there. Thumbs down on this event for me. :(
Steve didn’t come to the trading room between 4-5pm on Wednesday :( It seemed like it was glitching with only two visible webkinz in the room but the count showing 10 ???
