Submitted by FIA on Wed, 07/23/2008 - 2:04pm.

All of the rumors surrounding the release of the Webkinz Grey Wolf can finally be put to rest. Today the Grey Wolf appeared for sale in the Webkinz eStore. This "online only" Webkinz can be purchased with a credit card for $12.50 US Dollars at www.webkinzestore.com. After you make your payment online, an adoption code is sent to your email address. You enter this code in the Adoption Center the same way you would any other adoption code.

UPDATE: The Grey Wolf has been removed from the Webkinz eStore. We don't yet know if this is temporary or permanent.

Thank you to twinmom1998 for sharing this picture of "Faelan" in the Grey Wolf's special item, the Red-Hooded Riding Car. The Grey Wolf's special food is Braised Venison Cacciatore. read more »
