I was scanning through the newspaper when I saw an article about Webkinz! Obviously, I was interested. So I read it:

-2.5 million people joined the Webkinz online community after buying the toy in the first year Webkinz were sold! O.O

-It's similar to Club penguin (only much safer)

-The article said that Webkinz have become a status popularity: "I have 4 and you only have 1! Ha!" "I got more than you!"

-Stores who sell Webkinz can't keep up with the buyers. Producers of the toy cannot make enough to restock shelves quick enough.

-Other things

I don't think there was bad stuff in the article, but it sure wasn't giving Webkinz a good phraise :) I was just surprised to see an article about it. Did anybody else read it/see it?

*Tgd*

 
:mellow: I hope that Ganz dosen't stop making Webkinz altogether! Then I wouldn't be able to get the new Webkinz coming out! I really want the dalmatian Webkinz that's coming out in March!
 
Are you in Toronto? If so, which newspaper did you read it in? And which page?

Um, not sure which newspaper but it was near the front page. It was in a medium grey box, with a picture of a girl on a laptop/computer and three Webkinz on top of it. :mellow: And no, I do not live in Toronto.

I don't think they were discussing getting rid of Webkinz all together, but they said that there were too many people buying Webkinz that sotres cannot restock them fast enough. o.o

Aha, I know what paper you are talking about, I think. I'll check if we have it. :D
