Thank you to Bindidog for sharing this picture with us of her new Sparkling Pegasus. Here you can see the Pegasus posing with her Pet Specific Item, the Golden Chariot Bed.  The Pet Special Food for the Sparkling Pegasus is Twinkly Wing Waffles.  

 

During the contest, Bindidog's You Tube account was "hacked" and her video was removed from the site.  She had this to say regarding the incident.

 

Webkinz World members know that on April 29th, Webkinz World will be celebrating its 5th Anniversary. Some members may have just recently joined the Webkinz World community, while others have been a part of it for many years. Ganz has decided to to run a contest from April 25th through April 29th and five winners will be selected (1 Grand Prize and 4 Runner ups).

 

Grand Prize will be ALL 5 Webkinz Day gifts (Year 1 - Year 5), a Magical Webkinz Wardrobe Replica, a Fountain of WOW, a Big Pile of KinzCash Bed and a Sparkling Pegasus!. The four runner ups will receive a Sparkling Pegasus. For this contest, GANZ wants to hear your favorite memory of Webkinz World. For complete rules, click HERE.

 

UPDATE:  Ganz has also announced that they will be giving away 50 Sparkling Pegasus codes to people who log on to Webkinz World on Webkinz Day.  It's a random giveaway, so everyone has a chance!

Ganz latest contest starts April 17th and ends on April 18th; the prize: The Pom Pom Chinchilla

 

 

For this contest, they are looking for a silly story telling where the Pom Pom Chinchilla went for Spring Break! 5 Winners will be chosen and the prize is the Pom Pom Chinchilla virtual pet. For more details on this contest click HERE.

                                       

At this point it is not clear why the Pom Pom Chinchilla is shown holding pom poms that look like the Pom Pom Shoes from the Pom Pom Kitty's PSI.  It's also not clear why Ganz keeps saying that we should "CHEER" for the Chinchilla.  As most of you know, the PSI for the Pom Pom Chinchilla is the Pom Pom Pattern Rug.  It's the Pom Pom Kitty that comes with a Spirit Squad Uniform.

 

Earlier today, we cited some information from Ganz about the eStore Webkinz birthstone pets being replaced by Webkinz Zodiac pets. We have some even better news for you, Ganz has released an official virtual image for the first Zodiac Webkinz, the Webkinz Taurus Bull!

 

Each pet is going to come with a Zodiac-related PSI and PSF, but we're all wondering what they'll do for Gemini, Libra, Virgo and others!
