Would you like to win a Tinker Chimera? All you have to do is enter our Tinker Chimera contest! Entries will be accepted from this Friday until Sunday, but you can start thinking about what you want to write now.
Contest description:
The chimera is a mythical creature made up of several other animals — what’s the craziest combination of animals you can think of? Tell us about your chimera in a 1000 characters or less, and you could win one of 5 eStore exclusive Tinker Chimera codes!
Be sure to enter by visiting the Contest page starting Friday, August 28!
Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz to learn how you can get your very own Tinker Chimera.
I’ve got a question about the contest, do you want us to describe what the chimera we create does and what it looks like or can we just list a bunch of random animals?
You can describe what it does/looks like if you want, but the main thing is the combination of animals :)
Ah, thank you. That clears a lot up. Thank you very much. :)
can i use the golden fawn code that i got in may?
Yes you can! Codes don’t expire, your code is still fine as long as it hasn’t been used.
thanks
I think this animal is adorable!!!
Do we email our entres?
Nope! Use the contest entry form. :)
I just want to clarify, it’s 1000 characters, not 1000 words?
Yup!
Hi Sally Webkinz, are you new? I’m so excited for this contest!!!

I’ve actually been around since 2006. I’m an oldtimer :D

It did not get doubled. At least I did not see it twice
I was replying to emiemiemiemiemi

Hmm, I’m gonna really have to put a lot of thought into this one!
I have a question: do we just write about what animals it’s made up of, or do we write a story about it and tell about what it does with the features it got from other animals? Sorry, I was just curious because I was going to write a rough draft of it out today so I can type it up easily tomorrow.
You can write a story if you like, but we’re mostly looking for the kooky animal combinations :)
Okay, thanks for answering my question! ;D
This is so cool! I’m definitely going to enter this contest! Good luck to everyone! ;)
Me too! so cool can’t wait to enter, good luck to all! (:
Sooo, this is another contest where the winners are determined by a random drawing of entries, right?
Nope! The writing contests are judged. Only the Top 10 contests are random.
Hey Sally Webkinz! Another new Webkinz Blogger! Awesome font, since my favorite color is green. I love the idea of the chimera. Crazy combinations of animals can be so much fun!
Oh, okay, so it’s only mostly random. :P Also, I am going to combine so many animals….
Oh really cool! This is so interesting… I’ve never heard of a Chimera before, but apparently it is some mythical creature. I would love to win won and I will totally enter! (Even though I doubt I would ever win anything..) =] Already thinking of the crazy animals now.
There are human Chimera’s. It’s not just a mythical creature..
Well, there are two kinds of chimeras, the mythological kind (the “crazy” kind) and the genetic kind (the “real” kind). Judging by the contest entries though, I think they’re talking about the mythical kind :P
I am TOTALLY going to enter! :D
