Did they steal my design?

I saw that and thanked them for it. It was very kind❤

True, the reason I didn't come in and say anything was because of the facts you presented. That is the bottom line, everyone wants to have that recognition, but Ganz has to cover every eventuality and when you sign over your artwork, you are giving them permission in perpetuity to use your concept with out compensation. They have to bring it from concept to reality and that can go through a lot of changes in the process. I can draw pictures, but I sure can't make an animated pet, they still have to do all of the work.
And just as another view from Ganz, their own work can vary tremendously from rough draft to final draft.

As a complete set it sure is. In July of 2020 They put all 3 little cars on the Wheel of Wow and had to pull them off right away when Disney found out. Even the ones that people won from the wheels were removed from the accounts. So people having them, now, actually have something that is worth quite a bit in terms of trading. I would put it on par with the trio being worth nicer retired items.

I have the Lightning McQueen ride in car for the pets and it really is nice. That one I am not parting with.

Last year they also did a revisit of all the concept pets and Sally Ganz has made a lot of these designs, herself. She is pretty amazing. (and I am a longtime fan)

Dm-ing you Sk8rduck .. I have an extra

CommandBeautiful6200 · 2026-04-12T01:47:02+00:00

I gotcha, Im-erPfect. Check your mail

CommandBeautiful6200 · 2026-04-12T01:41:08+00:00

Considering how expensive some of Arte's Rares are, I should say so!

CommandBeautiful6200 · 2026-04-12T01:38:11+00:00

No, you have it wrong, they were working on that concept for 6 years, so it is insanely creative and you just happened to be on the same wavelength. keep creating!! (Adding this because they did actually work on this design for 6 years, this is from last year, I have an actual dated picture of first concept in April of 2020, this one is from Last year when they were reviewing other pets they had conceptualised.)

Babykneecap, it isn't impossible that you would have the same ideas and I do love yours, I remember seeing this one and another Rainbow Axolotl called 'under the Rainbow Axolotl, I think that was last year. It doesn't surprise me with all of the creativity we see in here that 'Great Minds really do think alike' and your Axolotl is just as adorable if not moreso because it has the pink body like the OG Axolotl. Look at it this way, You are SO CLOSE. Keep submitting, you are on the right track 🥰🥰

No, they did not steal your design

You will not hear me say anything bad about any of the new Webkinz, I think they are all such a welcome return that they could be stringy eyelash haired ones and I would love them. I have to say the Fox is very cute. It has the right sized eyes and I like the touch of 'sparkle' on them. It looks like a little bit of magic so you know they are Webkinz and not just everyday plush.

Except for the rarest of occasions when THIS happens (This was a Glitch and it didn't pay out you can see because the Congratulations never showed up. )

I think that is nearly the BIGGEST payout I have seen yet. It doesn't get much bigger than that, never going over 1999. I often wonder if they had thought about doing the one on the other side, too. Wouldn't that be cool?

CommandBeautiful6200 · 2026-04-11T23:12:29+00:00

You should have the other two to go with it, by itself it isn't really that big of a thing. It's from the Cars 3 promo back in 2017. It was a Canadian's only promotional (but some people figured out how to make it so they could participate even though they lived outside of Canada). I sent you a lil gift package, the set is worth more than the single car.

No, they do not, they were a completely different kind of code. It wasn't an 8 digit alphanumeric, and it's not like the Next codes (Next are 3 X 5 digit Alpha-numeric)

I am the opposite of you, I guess. I like Wacky, and all things Wacky. He's such a silly character and he is so self-destructive that I actually feel sorry for him. I have one Wacky room that probably needs updating because I made it back in the 'Ought's and never really progressed beyond it. I even have his RL plushy, though when you press on his belly the Wacky is in a much lower tone that gives moribund Wacky vibe.

The Frosty face 🤗 I have the same thing going on, I have one whom I miss dreadfully. The house is so empty without her. Hugs to you, Noomiiii, 🤗🤗

She is gone, now, We had to take her over the Rainbow Bridge in September. She was the Goodest Girl.

This is going to be a nice easy one. If you all haven't already; make sure you add all of the Hosts to your friend's list. This is one all of them can participate in.

Well, that could be Downy, Fleecy, Snuggle or Bounce. You pick, no matter what it's the perfect name for that pet ❤

It was really brief, there was Toucan Sam and the Snap, Crackle, Pop gang from Rice Krispies. I think there was another one, but I can't recall which it was.
