Trading Cards

Thank you to Webkinz Insider member thecarters05 for providing us with a clear picture of what has come to be know as the "Brown Yorkie" sticker from the Series 4 Trading Cards.  Is this sticker an indication that Ganz is planning on releasing a Brown Yorkie, or is this just a more accurate picture of what a Webkinz Yorkie should look like? As many of our members pointed out back when the Webkinz (white) Yorkie was originally released, there is no such thing as a pure-bred "White Yorkie" and the animal released by Ganz looks more like a Maltese.   If/when Ganz releases any information, we will let you know.

Users have reported finding the Series 4 Trading Cards in various places in the US and Canada. We've just received word that one of the members of our Webkinz Forum, ar1nb, is the first WI member to find and activate the Mystical Panda!

For those that aren't aware, the Mystical Panda is a "Series 4 Trading Card Only" pet that has odds of 1 in 360 packs! The Mystical Panda, along with the Magical Retriever from Series 3, are some of the rarest Webkinz in Webkinz World!

Here's some pictures that ar1nb provided to us for everyone to enjoy.  The Mystical Panda comes with the Sun's Embrace Bed and the PSF is Star Shimmer Sippers.  Congratulations to ar1nb on such a lucky find, as they only purchased 6 packs of cards!

We are starting to get reports from across our forum that members are finding the Series 4 Webkinz Trading Cards in their local stores.  Webkinz Insider member jessicabarnhart was the first to share pictures of her prizes with us.

This series of Trading Cards has new Trading Card Furniture, a new series of Posters, new Citizens of Kinzville Furniture, and new Citizens of Kinzville Clothing.

Jessica has this to say about the cards themselves:  "There are 11 different types of cards.  There are:  Newest Arrivals, Kinzville Characters, Get in the Game, Rarest of Rare, Pet's Favorite Food, Pet's Own Item, Favorite Pets, Stickers, Foil, Vacation Sensation, and Amazing Items.  The last two are new I think.  Obviously the Vacation Sensation is shots from Vacation [Island].  And the Amazing Items is all eStore items.  The stickers range from 3-6 on a card."  She also says, "On the back of the different cards there appears to be a story.  Each different card has a different story."  The story names are:  Fluffington's Job, The BIG News, The Newest Member, The Last Spell, The Big Job, The Big Bake Fail, A Second Chance, An Important Meeting, and Accident's Happen.

A complete Picture Gallery of the Series 4 Trading Card prizes has been assembled in this thread:  http://www.webkinzinsider.com/forum/f171/pictures-trading-card-items-368777/
