Webkinz Popularity Will it Ever Descend?

Webkinz are still the hottest toy of the year and that can leave many wondering; will this toy ever come down off the mountain? We folks the good news is I don't see it coming down anytime soon as webkinz continue to reign supreme they look as though they will stay the course at least until the next big thing comes along.

However with the way Ganz has been releasing webkinz burnout is a long way off. The reason being that every single webkinz release becomes hyped due to market popularity. The only way for the hype not to be there is that something comes long to challenge the webkinz hype. Pleo the Robot Life Form Dinosaur will be out this fall and that may challenge it somewhat. The only problem laying that the price tag for a Pleo is $349. Well worth it but for many families just not practical. Even beyond the price range is the fact that Ugobe the makers of PLEO are only releasing limited quantities in 2007 and will extend it in 2008 but not in time to end a craze on webkinz. Webkinz next biggest challenger will be this fall with the release of Sesame Streets' TMX Friends, TMX Ernie and TMX Cookie Monster. These two new plush are the follow up to the popular TMX Elmo released last year. Still webkinz are more interactive and also feature an internet based population that appeals to the youth. Webkinz biggest influence is also on the pre teens around 10-12. While TMX Friends falls slightly younger at 5-8.

So with those facts alone webkinz will end the year on top and look to hold the crown for 07' and the same will hold true for 2008. So rest assured parents that the hype won't die soon which means more longevity out of spending the $15-$30 for your child's favorite toy.
