FROM OUR HERO: THESPOILERLURKER!!!

Morning Gymbonians, and HAPPY UPDATE WEDNESDAY!

Let’s get started with PETS! Top row: Pine Wolf Gift Box, Pretty Pine Fireplace, Pine Sap Gummies. Middle row: Unknown pet gift box, Lil Purple Sweetheart Cow Gift Box, Purple Half Heart Window. Bottom row: Unknown pet gift box, Lil Blue Sweetheart Cow Gift Box, Blue Half Heart Window. You’ve seen the sweetheart cow items before, but now we have names for them. Note the windows have changed…there’s no longer a ribbon on the top of the window.

Since we’re talking about Pretty Pine, here’s the Pretty Pine ?? Theme! Top row: Pretty Pine ?? Box, Pretty Pine Wallpaper, Pretty Pine Flooring, Pretty Pine Bed. Middle row: Pretty Pine Rug, Pretty Pine Staircase, Pretty Potted Pine, Pretty Pine Wardrobe. Bottom row: Pine Forest Cottage, Pine Forest Fence. This theme coordinates with the Pine Wolf. The Pine Forest Cottage and Fence coordinate as well but will not be in the ?? Box.

Next up is the Keep Cozy theme. You’ve seen some of this before, but now it’s new and improved and named! Top row: Keep Cozy Bed, Keep Cozy Armchair, Keep Cozy Tan Wardrobe, Keep Cozy Sofa. Middle row: Keep Cozy Rug, Keep Cozy Lounge Chair, Keep Cozy Wallpaper, Keep Cozy Flooring. Bottom row: Keep Cozy Curtains, Keep Cozy Lamp, Keep Cozy Red Wardrobe. I showed you the tan wardrobe last time, and it had one of those little yellow arrows on the image, which means it is supposed to change appearance when rotated. Obviously they couldn’t get that feature to work, so instead of having a color-change wardrobe, we now have two wardrobes. This is most likely a mini theme that will be featured in the December Sale at the end of this month and beginning of January.

How ’bout some dispensers? Except for the tree, which is obviously a candy tree, these all scream PROMO ITEM to me. Top row: Valentine Candy Crane, Pink Valentine Candy, Snowman Wacky Donut Dispenser, Pink Snowball Donut. Bottom row: Unnamed dispenser that I NEED NEED NEED and its equally unnamed food that, coincidentally, I also NEED NEED NEED, and then the candy tree for February and its food, which are both unnamed but SOOOOOO gorgeous. And wait till you see the tie-in item! <3LOVE!<3

So here’s some random estore stuff, and the very first item is the candy tree tie-in. Top row: unnamed candy tree tie-in bench (NEEEEEEEEED!), Magic Forest Slide (they had to do the creepy eyeball forest? Why now the pretty crystal forest or the beautiful rainbow forest?!), Warm & Cozy Chair, Chalet Hot Tub. Bottom row: unnamed chair and sofa that seem to be the Cozy Cable Knit stuff recolored (LAZY!), unnamed sofa, unnamed pantry. The Chalet Hot Tub coordinates with the last Winterfest theme, not sure if it will be the cookie grand prize, or an estore item, or what, lol!

More random estore newness. On the top row, we have what seems to be the beginning of an unnamed ?? Box theme, with the box, the piano, and the bed. Also included in the top row is what looks like a fireplace wall. Bottom row: unnamed sofa and chair that seem to coordinate with the Soft Spring stuff I showed you last time, and an unnamed gold bathtub that seems to go with the fireplace wall.

More estore stuff! Top row: Sweetheart Camper (recolored…LAZY!), and FINALLY we have images of the Colorful Row House (Blue and Green, no Red or Yellow yet, ugh.) Bottom row: unnamed igloo, unnamed and GORGEOUS flower cottage (NEEEED!), and the Wafer Birdhouse that I showed you last time, but note how the image has changed! Ganz drove me crazy today, because they changed so many images and I had to redo them!

Now for some Winterfest! Top row: Neon Green Skis, Neon Green Ski Goggles, Neon Green Ski Jacket. Middle row: Neon Pink Skis, Neon Pink Goggles, Neon Pink Jacket. Bottom row: Ski Jacket, Ski Pants, Black Ski Pants. Yes, most of this was lazily recolored!

More Winterfest! Top row: Rescue Team Jacket, Rescue Team Skis, unnamed cap that is obviously more Rescue Team gear, Rescue Team Pet Pack. Bottom row: Rescue Team Helmet, Rescue Station, Rescue Team ATV, Rustic Winter Bridge (recolored…LAZY!)

Now for some random clothing newness. Top row: Valentine Sequin Dress, Bold Hearts Dress, Princess Party Dress, unnamed toque. Bottom row: four unnamed clothing items, might be winter KinzStyle Outlet.

More clothing, and I suspect this is all spring mystery! Top row: Bamboo Buddy (bet it’s not tradeable, ugh!), Amethyst Hair Bow, Aquamarine Hair Bow, Diamond Hair Bow. Big bows are always in demand in the trading room, so get mentally prepared now! I bet there will be a hair bow for every other gemstone, too, so get double-secret-probation mentally prepared! Bottom row: Ivy Fairy Buddy (bet this is also not tradeable, double-secret-probation ugh!), and a trio of unnamed lil springtime kitten slippers that will match the Lil Springtime Kitten dresses from a couple of mystery bags ago. Slippers are also a hot trading room item, so yeah, mental preparation and all that!

Some new food, not sure how this will be released. These are all unnamed, but they are those Best and Friend cupcakes from years ago put together to make Best Friends cupcakes, lol!

More food! Recipe chefs, these feel like recipes that incorporate estore dispenser foods, so warm up those cooking hands, and pray you’re they first person to solve them so you get the trophy! Top row: Borsht (misspelled, ugh!), Toad in a Hole, Minty S’mores, Trailmix Popcorn. Bottom row: Decadent Minty Cocoa, unnamed food, Lovely Lemon Bars, Fruit Pizza.

More food! These are this year’s Valentine Chocolates! No names yet, but I bet the one of the speckled chocolates is the WKN chocolate.

Some random newness. Top row: Frozen Glasses (Deluxe Clothing item for January), unnamed heart tiara that I bet is the Deluxe Clothing Item for February. Bottom row: unnamed glasses that I suspect are the beginning of a new line of birthstone items from Peek-a-Newz, because those look like amethyst to me. So we should be expecting a pair for each month. No idea what new (recolored) theme will also be in the WKN boxes, so stay tuned! Also on the bottom row are two foods that might be recipes or PSFs. Sorry, no names yet!

More random newness! Top row: none of this is named yet, but it might be for the Valentine Collection Event. Bottom row: another unnamed Valentine item, the Dogbeard’s Bathtub Battles Trophy, and an unnamed trophy that appears to be for a Checkers Trophy Challenge. (UGH!)
