Lots of information with the maintenance this morning. First of all here we have Ghostly Grand Piano and the Haunting Breeze Scarecrow.<\/strong> They appear to be eStore<\/strong> items. I said before I thought they would be in the W-shop, but I was mistaken.
\nThe data shows that these will be “nonsendable” which pretty much means they will appear in the E-store!
\nI’m sorry about the confusion!
\nAlso, the Piano is an “inside” only item and the Scarecrow is an “outside” only item!
\nThe Piano plays spooky music to the webkinz theme (like you hear with the music box)!
\nthe Scarecrow’s eyes glow and parts of it move with the wind!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

This is only part 1 of the latest update!<\/span><\/div>\n
I have more news coming. It will be posted later today after I get it all compiled!
\nI’m sorry to tell you that there aren’t any new costumes for Halloween, but there will be some new costumes!
\nI know that doesn’t make sense, but I’ll explain in “part 2” of my update news!
\nNow, since I’m on the E-store already, Lets go ahead and present the other E-store items!
\n\"\"<\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
This is the Pharoah Costume<\/strong>!
\nThis appears to be a E-store item too!
\nThere are 3 parts to it, the costume, the helm, and the Slippers!
\nI suspect you may have to purchase each part separately!!<\/span><\/div>\n
Here are some of the newspaper articles you’ll be seeing:<\/div>\n

And now, some good and bad news!
\nThese items will be available soon…
\nBlue Dragster, Elephant Statue, Ice Cream Tree, and Skater Kat Skateboard!
\nNow, before you get all excited about this…it looks like these will be offered in the E-store!
\nThey won’t be sendable, unfortunately, like all E-store items!
\nThis won’t mess up the old items as being sendable though.
\nThese will be called “replicas” and will have a different ID as the old ones!
\nSo the old ones will be sendable, but these won’t! That will be the only difference, I believe!
\nBut, if you ever wanted one of these, you will have a chance now to buy them and display them without trading your soul away, just your pocketbook!\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n

UPDATED COMMENT! The reason these are called “replicas” is just so that Ganz can add them as new “unsendable” items rather than making the old original ones “unsendable”!
\nIf they used the old files and marked them as “unsendable” then it would change the old items and make them “unsendable” for those that had the original versions!
\nI believe it was an attempt to not mess with the old versions and make people mad, but at the same time offer these for people who would never get the chance to own them!<\/span><\/p>\n

The Magical (better known as Balloon) Wardrobe is no longer available \":(\" The Wonderful Wardrobe has replaced it. Here are the pics.<\/p>\n
