Last week I received a spotted frog that I had purchased from one of our vendors and noticed that it was MUCH, MUCH smaller than the original spotted frog I had purchased in May. I thought that I had been accidently sent a lil' kinz until I noticed that there is NO lil' kinz spotted frog! I was concerned since this one was a gift and so I put a post out on WI to see if anyone here had the same problem. Everyone was so helpful and suggested that I contact Ganz - and so I did!
Ganz is SO GREAT!!! They immediately contacted me and asked me all kinds of questions about the frogs because they are very interested in quality control. I sent them a picture and I think I even talked to one of the head men at quality control! By the way, they checked the code and found it to be a real one. I heard from Sharon in Canada today (who is totally delightful!), and she is sending me a new spotted frog! She told me I could keep the little one . . . and now, LOL, Justin says I must have a OOAK (One of A Kind)!
Earlier this evening, a user in our forum, WebkinzFan2012 was the first to discover a new Webkinz Secret Recipe!! Congratulations!!
The staff here at WI has verified the recipe, and it is correct! The name of this Webkinz Secret Recipe is Astormishing Sandwich and you make it as described below:
Sandwich Maker
Watermelon
Jelly
Bread
Users in the forum have discovered that you MUST use a W-Shop Watermelon. Farm-Fresh Watermelons will not work.
Here's another breaking story from Webkinz Insider with up-to-the minute information about Webkinz World!
A member on our forum has solved one of the new recipes earlier this morning! FAMOUSDOG is credited with the solution and will be cited as the "Discovering member" of this recipe on Webkinz Insider! Well done!
The recipe is for the Slippamarink Sandwich and is made in the following method:
Sandwich Maker
Bagel
Ice Cream
Ice Pop
Let's all work together to figure out the rest. The names of the recipes are listed in the Recipes section in our forum!
As a follow-up, it looks like the Webkinz team has brought another change to Webkinz World with the lengthy maintenance window this morning: The Pet of the Month area has been added to the W Shop, showcasing the items that will be given in the "Goodie Bags" when a user adopts a Webkinz Pet of the Month.
In a most interesting turn, by all estimates, Webkinz World was open for about 20-30 minutes when people were able to see the new theme and this new Pet of the Month section. A glitch was quickly discovered in that you were actually able to PURCHASE the Pet of the Month items!!
Webkinz World is back online and the glitch has been corrected. Ganz took this in stride and removed the purchased items from all accounts and returned all of the spent Kinz Cash! NOTE: It appears that some people may STILL have the items in their yards/homes/docks, so take a look!
One of the users on our forum, proud*mom, was able to get in to Webkinz World before the rest of us, at around 10:30 AM Kinz Time.
It does appear that the downtime this morning was to add new features to Webkinz World, specifically an "Action" tab has been added to the dock!
The first few actions are: wave, smile, and giggle and you can record a sequence. We assume that further actions will be added as time moves forward. No one has had a chance to experiment, but some believe that you can record these sequences and replay them for your friends when they visit your Webkinz home.
In addition, they've also added a new Atlantis theme at the W Shop and have announced 5 new Webkinz recipes.
