PSI & PSF for October 2012 Rockerz and Signature; Halloween Virtual Pet; Snowflake Puppy Revealed!

Starting off, we have October 2012's Signature Pet, the African Wild Dog!

This hound has taken the hunt to an all new level with its PSI, the Gyrostalker! When the day is done, it settles down to a dinner of Wild Beast Brisket.

Or you could stick to something more urban, with the Rockerz Bunny and its PSI, Boom Box Bed, and PSF, Microphone Snow Cone!

If you'd rather spend the day at the beach instead, then the Rockerz Dog can help get the party started with its PSI, the Reggae DJ Booth! Maybe it'll share some of its PSF, Spicy Chicken and Rice?

If you'd like some more life in your party, then the Rockerz Poodle is for you! Get some Disco Ball Cereal to energize, then get out there on the Disco Dance Floor!

But we all know that home is where the heart is...so head on over to the Rockerz Horse concert, where you're sure to feel at home! With its Country Banjo Stage PSI and Blueberry and Bluegrass Cobbler, you'll have a mighty fine time!

For the 2012 Holidays, share some Snowflake Frosted Cookies with the merry Snowflake Puppy, then watch the snow fall from its PSI, Snowy Globe Chair.

For all of the major holidays celebrated in Webkinz World--October, Christmas, Valentine's Day, and St. Patrick's Day--there is a plush Webkinz, and a virtual-only Webkinz for each.

Take a deep breath, now.
One, two, three...
Squee!

Others may not find it so cute, but keep in mind this is my favorite Webkinz pet, made for my favorite season, modeled after my favorite candy. I. Am. Sold.

The Candy Corn Mouse is Halloween 2012's eStore pet, announced on Facebook, and comes with Petrifying Popcorn to nibble on and a Pumpkin Carving Station! Carrying on the tradition of Webkinz Mice coming with tables for PSI.
Now we just need a Mouse with hearts for ears and a Mouse with shamrocks on its paws!

Rest of July 2012 Webkinz PSI and PSF Revealed

We'll start with the Sunset Giraffe, a cute new pal with a mosaic of colors--and that's no tall tale! okay sorry that was terrible

It comes with a Tallest Toy Box PSI, and a Twiggy Pudding PSF.

For a walk on the wild side, we have the Coyote!

After a day of exploring, it walks across its Canyon Crosswalk PSI back home for a Prairie Omelet dinner.

And on this side of the ring, we have the Boxer!

After getting in its daily training in its Boxing Ring Trampoline, the Boxer looks forward to Champion Treats!

The Signature pet for July is the Hippopotamus!

In its spare time, the Signature Hippopotamus likes to ride around on its Muddy River Raft Ride, snacking on Short Grass Samosas.

A new addition to the Rockerz line! An eStore pet available now for 15,000 points (15 US$), the Rockerz Puppy is...oddly reminiscent of Justin Beiber. Honestly, look at the hair, the purple, and the clothing it comes with. 
Aaaaand it really does not want me to show the picture. Just follow this link to the WKN article instead. 

PSI and PSF for Webkinz Rockerz, Signature Ragdoll Cat, and Purple Floral Fawn Revealed at WKN

We'll start with the much-anticipated Webkinz Rockerz!
They originally had much longer names (Peace, Love, and Moosic Cow; Bad to the Bone Bulldog; Punk Rock Princess Cat; and I keep forgetting the Lion's name), but it appears that they've been shortened to simply Rockerz (whatever animal they are).

The Lion comes with Shock Rock Stage Flames for a PSI, and Heavy Metal Meatballs to eat.
And so, now that the Webkinz had harnessed the power of fire, they went on to create the world's coolest barbeques.

The Rockerz Cat comes with a Dressing Room Vanity PSI, and Funky Fish Sticks PSF. That is among their more creative PSFs! Wonder if the keyboard it's on still works.

The Rockerz Bulldog comes with a Rockin' Drum Set PSI, and a Mosh Pitatoes PSF. Tee hee, puns

Finally, the Rockerz Cow comes with a Groovy Solo Stage PSI, and a Flower Powdered Sugar Cookies PSF. Huzzah, we finally have more microphones! And a really cool one, too.

The Signature Ragdoll Cat, June's Signature pet, comes with a Designer Catwalk PSI, and a Seared Scallops PSF.

The Purple Floral Fawn is a new, virtual Webkinz pet. It comes with a Cozy Log Hideaway PSI, and Apple Blossom Tarts PSF.

Not to be confused with the Purple Floral Fox, which I am to assume is the older relative of this newcomer.
The main difference between these two appearance-wise is that the Fox has a bunch of flowers on its back.

And for Webkinz fans who use the eStore, it has been announced that for the entire month of May, the virtual-only Emerald Puppy will be for sale! Not only that, but those who purchase this pet first made available in 2010 will get a free Emerald Dragster!

And from this segment of the advertisement, it looks like the rest of the Birthstone Puppies will be available somehow during their respective months this year, too!

Ganz Reveals June 2012 List of Pets

Ganz has announced the plush Webkinz pets for June 2012, along with the July POTM.

June is going to be a rather meager month, with 2 Webkinz and 1 signature being released. And here they are...

The Summer Beaver, which is basically a pink, bipedal beaver with orange dots.

Can I make a small complaint for a second? They really need to learn how to adjust their camera settings. It just makes the Beaver look neon./endcomplaint
Moving on to our second pet, which is the Cocoa Lab.

Do not get this confused with the Chocolate Lab! The Chocolate Lab was released in 2009, is retired, has its Magic W on its back right paw, and looks like this:

That's my Lab, BTW. Her name's Ella.

The Signature for June is the Ragdoll Cat!

Simply gawgeous, dahling.

And July's POTM is the Puckerfish. what

Also, the Yellow Fluffy Cub and Tyrannosaurus, two new virtual pets, have been officially revealed on Webkinz Newz. (and it turns out that I was right, the T-Rex's PSI is named Amber Armchair)

The T-rex comes with an Amber Armchair PSI, and Gigantic Jawbreaker PSF.

The Yellow Fluffy Cub comes with a Totally Fun Toy Box PSI and Honeycomb Porridge PSF.

Pink Dalmatian, Signature Normande Cow, and Airborne Puppy PSI and PSF Revealed!

The Pink Dalmatian, a new pet to be released in May 2012, comes with a Cream Soda Slushy PSF, and a Sapphire Lamp Post PSI.
Before you say something about the PSI being named wrong, please take into account that sapphires are not strictly blue: yellow and green sapphires are a common occurrence, and pink, orange, and even brown sapphires exist. /the more you know

The Signature Normande Cow comes with a Silo Storage Tower PSI, and a Foie Grass PSF. Surprisingly plain PSI for a Signature, but I bet it holds an amazing amount of items.

 And we have a surprise new pet: the Airborne Puppy!

 

This cloud-chasing canine comes with a Cloud Control Station PSI, and a filling Winged Wet Food PSF.
All we know about this pet is that it is virtual-only.

Way to Get Snowy Summit Wolf Revealed

Ganz has revealed how to get the Snowy Summit Wolf, a virtual-only pet announced January 14, 2012.

 

In an e-mail that Ganz sent out to Webkinz World members who have used the eStore in the past, Ganz has revealed that, for the low, low price of 75 US dollars, you, too, can possess an overpriced pixelated pooch.

...yes, this is another one of the promotions that Ganz is doing in which, along with the purchase of a certain amount of eStore points, you are given a free pet code. This promotion will be in effect from March 21 to March 25, 2012. After that, who knows when we'll see this pet for sale again?

Sneak Peeks, Sneak Peeks Everywhere

Let's begin with the April 2012 pets.

The Springy Kangaroo comes with a Roasted Wild Grass PSF, and a Floral Pantry PSI. I predict that this perky pet will be pretty popular. (but how does one go about roasting grass without it just setting on fire?)

The Plumfadoodle comes with a Sour Plum Drops PSF, and Flower Patch Pond PSI. That is some colorful plumage this one sports! Still looking like the closest thing to a Webkinz flamingo we're getting. I love that they put ribbons on its PSF, that really finishes it nicely.

The Sloth comes with a Sweet Leaf Salad PSF and a Speedy Jungle SUV PSI. First off, I must say that I really like what they did with this guy's face! It's so inquisitive, yet simple! And they gave the sloth a car, heh.

The Sabertooth Tiger, despite my hopes for the contrary, comes with everything and looks exactly like its eStore counterpart. It comes with a Saberstripes PSI and a Prehistoric Pie PSF.

 The Bichon Frise comes with a Fluffy White Bubble Bath PSI, and a Cotton Kibble Candy PSF. Looks like real cotton! Wonder if it tastes the same...

The Pizzazzy Puppy is so going on my wish list comes with a Designer Gown PSI, and a Pinkberry Punch PSF.

The Signature King Charles Spaniel comes with a Palatial Platform PSI, and a Royal Feast PSF.


And, for a couple of surprise additions, we have the...

...Winged Tiger, which is the best virtual Webkinz ever--come on, how many Webkinz tigers have a freakin' pair of wings? It comes with a Kinz Air Pilot Outfit PSI, and an Airline Cuisine PSF. That must be a really nice airline to serve that elaborate of a meal. I think I see the Signature Orange Tabby Cat's PSF in there...

...we also have the Northern Trails Buffalo, which is pretty unique. One can never have too many buffalo. It comes with a Nomad Tent PSI, and a Prairie Grass Pudding PSF. It, too, is virtual-only.

WKN Posts PSI and PSF of Webkinz Red Velvet Rabbit!

This is an eStore pet, most likely the virtual-only Easter pet for 2012, but it's awesome anyway! It comes with a Red Velvet Couch and Red Velvet Carrot Cake.

I love the design for this rabbit's fur! The red and cream match perfectly, and its ears complete the look quite well. 10/10!
The PSF is cute, and I just now noticed that the fork included is in the shape of a rabbit's head. Cute touch! 9/10!
The PSI is very pretty, and will match splendidly in a fancy sitting room, or a 5-star restaurant. 10/10!

Ganz Releases Sneak Peek of Webkinz Clover Lion at Webkinz Newz

Ganz has released news about the Webkinz Clover Lion, a virtual St. Patrick's day pet.
It comes with a PSI of a Hidden Clover Den, and a PSF of a Lucky Medallion Steak.

What a clever pet this is, with its clover for a mane! Place it in a room with the Sunflower and Poinsettia Lions, and you can make a small garden. I wonder if this is a subtle hint towards what next year's series of monthly themed pets is?

Ganz Posts PSI and PSF of Webkinz Cosmic Bear

I, for one, welcome the Mystic Moon Bear's twin.

Webkinz Newz has just posted the PSI and PSF of another virtual pet, the Cosmic Bear. (or the Purple Mystic Moon Bear, if you'd prefer. I say they're twins.) It comes with a Levitating Loveseat PSI, and Moon Rock Candy PSF. The Mystic Moon Bear was only available with the purchase of 75,000 eStore points (75 US dollars), plus it was only around from August 8-11 2011, so let's hope that this will be a much cheaper choice!

I think this is a beautiful pet, even if it's basically a purple Mystic Moon Bear. I find purple to be a more flattering color on this bear anyway! And that is one pretty PSI. Applause!
