The latest Webkinz World maintenance resulted in several exciting changes, as well as an answer to the lingering Wish Token questions.  The brand new "Wish Factory" is now available.  As some of the members of our forum guessed, these Wish Tokens are for earning exclusive items! Users can deposit wish tokens and once at least 10 tokens have been deposited, an exclusive item (excluding Superbeds) may be selected.  The items range in price from 10 tokens to 30 tokens.

Most of the items are in the 10-12 Token range, with the the "most expensive" item being the Circle of Friends Topiary for 30 tokens! These amounts can be viewed in the exclusive section of the W Shop, as shown below on the ATV.

Problem I deposited my wish token this morning at the Wish Factory and received an error stating that there was suspicious activity and the account would be monitored. It did not give me credit for my token. I emailed the support team.

Disappointed in change Okay, sorry be the first to say . . . I am very disappointed with this change . . . I am rather new at the whole Webkinz world, start just this past Christmas . . . first, both of our accounts (mine & my nieces) was locked up because of the glick that happened at that time, and now OVER two months later our one account (my niece’s) is still not working correctly and they keep having us jump thru hoops to fix it . . . for mine I brought few more and each time I adopt another one I get the Toad Stool Table (4 now) as my additional adoption gift, I was hope that we would different gifts with eac   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment... » See all 1 replie(s) Posted by popogeejo, on March 6, 2008, 19. Wish Factory & Retired Webkinz First time posting...hope I'm doing this right! My daughter and I deposited out wish tokens at the factory with no problems this morning (before 7:00 AM CT). I just checked & I still have credit for the token I deposited. I noticed that many new Webkinz have been retired. I'm upset about the Love Puppy & the Sherbet Bunny as I was never able to buy them at my local store. What I was most surprised about was the Lil' Kinz Leopard being retired! I wonder if that was a mistake & Ganz meant to retire the Webkinz Leopard? The Lil' Kinz just came out last month!   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment... Posted by KatrinaV, on March 6, 2008, 20. Wishing the Wish Factory Actually WORKED I too tried to deposit my coin and got the error message "A suspicious event occurred. Your account will be monitored pending an investigation." I didn't realize it was criminal to deposit my ONE wish token that I got with the lil kinz pig-pet of the month. They even stole my coin! I love webkinz world but thiey are a mess. Why not a LESS alarming message...I feel like a criminal but I was the one that was robbed!   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment... Posted by cante123, on March 6, 2008, 21. Great - question We think it's great to be able to choose an exclusive item. Question - if you sell an item back to the Wshop will you get the tokens for it? It would be a great to not have so many duplicates.   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment... Posted by Renee, on March 6, 2008, 22. Not a fan of the wish factory It said you can deposit your wish tokens for save keeping. I deposited mine and it said that my account was being monitored for suspecious activity and it did not add the token to my total. What the point of saving the coins if they just gonna keep them        » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment...

Wish Factory Exclusive Items I think it's great that we can now buy exclusive (or not so exclusive!) items now. My daughter wanted more rainy day windows but since there are no duplicates when receiving the items (unless you have more animals than there are items?) she had little chance of getting another one. Now she can purchase as many as she wants! Assuming she can get enough tokens of course!   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment... Posted by Lynsey, on March 6, 2008, 25. coin eaters It gave me the suspisios activity message too, and now I see my coin about to drop in but it's just sitting there and I don't have credit for it.

Posted by KallaWM, on March 6, 2008, 29. Reboot When I went back to the Wish Factory, Amanda actually spoke to me this time. I went ahead and tried to deposit and then got the suspicious event message you guys are talking about.... but Amanda said "well done."    When I logged out, logged back in, and went back to the Wish Factory, my token count was showing "1." So... if you haven't tried yet, log out and back in to see if that resets it.   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment... » See all 1 replie(s) Posted by baritonegirl06, on March 6, 2008, 30. wish token issues :( how do you put the wish tokens in the machine?! i see the little slot for them, but when i drag my coin to the slot, it just goes straight back to my dock! how do you put the coins in?!?!   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment...

I have 18 webkinz and I think I have WAY TOO MANY!!! Ofcoarse, I have a friend who has 79 (or so) but, I think 1 is good. Don't waste your money.

Excited :) I have to say I'm excited to be able to buy the exclusive items and I agree with a previous comment I read "I hope we are able to sell back our duplicates for tokens". That would eliminate some of the junk in my junk room that I don't want to sell cause they are exclusive. I am anxious to find out how else we will be able to get tokens aside from POtM   Have fun   » Report this comment to administrator » Reply to this comment...
