Wondering What Happened to the Lil Kinz Webkinz? - Although Ganz has never come out and said it and probably never will, the younger Webkinz customers and collectors probably have a harder time coping with it, but the Lil' Kinz line has effectively been discontinued (or put on hiatus is a better phrase for it.) Not releasing a Lil' Kinz since last July is very indicative of this, plus the introduction of the Zumbuddy Webkinz line and two new Signature Webkinz offshoot lines is more than enough proof that Ganz's interests are elsewhere.
Although Ganz has never come out and said it and
probably never will, the younger Webkinz customers and collectors
probably have a harder time coping with it, but the Lil' Kinz line has
effectively been discontinued (or put on hiatus is a better phrase for
it.) Not releasing a Lil' Kinz since last July is very indicative of
this, plus the introduction of the Zumbuddy Webkinz line and two new
Signature Webkinz offshoot lines is more than enough proof that Ganz's
interests are elsewhere in other product lines. The Signature Webkinz
in particular has skyrocketed in popularity due to their larger size
and softer nature. Other indicative proof would be that as of late,
bird and fish styles have been introduced as normal Webkinz as opposed
to Lil' Kinz. If the line was going to continue, would have thought the
Lionfish, Caterpillar, Pink Cockatoo, to name a few, would have been
Lil' Kinz instead, as they're typically smaller animals in nature.
However,
here is the list and product codes from an old Ganz document of Lil'
Kinz styles that were going to be released... but were scrapped when
Ganz decided not to make the new lil Kinz. Will some of these styles be
reconsidered and introduced as full sized Webkinz or small Signature
Webkinz? Only time will tell. This list is 100% valid as it was sent
prior to the announcement of Polka Back Fish, Budgie, Oriole, and
Tomato Clown Fish, and then one by one they were announced.
Here's the list of those who didn't make the cut, but may make a reappearance in the future in some form or another -
Obviously not every variation will make
the cut as there are typically about 4-6 new Webkinz issued each month.
Some are the new signature series to compliment the regular full size
Webkinz version. But it looks like the Lil Kinz seems to have taken a
back seat to all other Webkinz at least for the time being, if not
forever. A cheaper alternative and a joy to many that considered them
the babies to their mommies and daddies.
Also
for my 3 and 6 year olds it has become customary is to pat the heads of
each webkinz going out and to wish them a safe trip and that they will
enjoy their new home. Besides them, please go to: http://www.buywebkinzworldwide.com/,
we like to hear the reactions of the special someone or someones
receiving them. It is okay if it is for you. It makes things better
since we don't actually get to meet face to face., We love toys and
especially Webkinz. They have brightened up so many peoples' lives and
we are glad to be assisting in that. For more information on Webkinz
that we offer.
