Webkinz Dragon collection
I've been a member of Webkinz since July 24, 2008! Webkinz at the time was a very popular website! I remember seeing them in a lot of stores. You bought a plush pet that came with a code, logged it online, and it would ''come to life!'' The dragons were my favorite type of Webkinz. I currently have them all except for the Whimsy Dragon Kinz Klip. Which was very popular and sold out quickly. She's quite pricy as well and I've been trying to find one for sale for a reasonable price!
I sure do remember going on WebkinzInsider, an old Ganz website (Which is dead now) to see any news of upcoming pets. When I saw I dragon, I was overwhelmed with joy! Those were the good old days. Sadly, they are sort of over. Ganz has now become more interested in making digital online pets instead of more plushies. Its been years since they're last plush dragon. I'm still waiting someday, for a new one to arrive.

Whimsy Dragon
The Whimsy dragon was the first dragon ever made in Webkinz. She was released in May of 2008. I've actually got a interesting story behind her. You see, at the time I never knew a dragon pet existed. Want to know how she became known to me? Saw her at a 7-11 along with many other Webkinz pets for sale. I begged my dad to get her for me. But he said no. From that day on, I wanted her so bad!
I went shopping with an old friend of mine a few months after. We went to Limited Too (Which is now Justice) and saw a wall of Webkinz. They had a bunch of Whimsy dragons! My friend bought one. I got very jealous haha. I begged my mom to get me one, but she said no. Christmas was coming up so she said I should add her to my wish list. Soon Christmas day came. This is a day I wont soon forget. I was opening a fairly large present. When I opened it, it was a box with a sink on it. My parents told me to open the box. When I did, there I saw my little Whimsy dragon. I was overcome with joy! I had finally gotten her!
In the image you see, I have two Whimsy dragons. The one on the left is the old and the right is the new. I got a new one because the old one is almost 10 years old! Plus she's gotten banged up over the years. Her pink color has dulled up from being washed a lot and the material on her stomach has worn off. So I bought a new one. As you can see, the newer one looks more pink and soft looking! Despite being the first dragon, she's not hard to find at all! I got her new with tag for only $12. So if you want her, you'll have no trouble getting her!

Emperor Dragon
This was the second dragon to appear in Webkinz. He was released in January of 2009. Being a young kid at the time, it wasn't easy getting the things I wanted. I don't exactly remember how I got him, but all I know is I got him from Hallmark in February. He's a cool looking dragon. With his snake-like tongue sticking out. The Emperor dragon in this image was actually the one who was given to me by my old friend. I don't know where my old one is. He's probably in storage somewhere. I'm considering getting a new one since he's pretty old as well. Interesting thing about this pet is, he's the only pet to date with the weird looking material on his belly. I don't know what to call it but it looks good on him!
This dragon is not considered rare but he is retired. The price for him is a little more than the Whimsy but not by much. He'll probably go around $15-$30 at least. He's pretty easy to find online.

Lava Dragon
The third dragon to be released. He was released in September of 2009. He is also one of the ''Seasonal'' pets meaning, he was a Halloween pet. They have lots of seasonal pets! Lucky for me, my birthday is in September! So with the birthday money I got, I used it to buy him!
This dragon had a pretty funky looking design. I imagined, he's sorta laying down. Wish they made his body like the previous two! I really love Halloween! So I love this guy extra more! His eyes are a light shade of purple. But online they appear grey. I love his teeth and long horns on his head!
This dragon is one of the rare ones. He was very popular when he came out and sold out quickly. He's a bit pricy online. Going from $25-$40 with tag. The Lava dragon retired a few months after its release from being so popular!

Ice Dragon
The Ice dragon was released in December of 2010. Never have I ever been so excited for a dragon before. She was the dragon I got the most excited about! If I had to choose a favorite dragon plush, it'd definitely be the Ice dragon! She's beautiful! She's got great colors, really neat material, and best of all, HUGE wings!!! All the other dragons have such tiny wings. Ganz decided to try something new and it worked out really well! Sadly, this is the only dragon they did that on. She's super soft! She's also a seasonal dragon for Winter. I got her at Justice!
She's the second rarest dragon. For new with tag, she typically goes for $30-$50 online. The Ice dragon was another very popular pet when released. She quickly sold out and retired.

Twilight Dragon
The Twilight dragon was released in May of 2011. I've actually got an interesting story about this guy. For some reason, I didn't care about this dragon when it released. Heck, I don't even know if I kept track anymore of upcoming pets for some reason. When he arrived, I just let him slide. I mean yeah I wanted him but, I didn't care at the time about him. I actually got very lucky with this guy. My uncle one day called me asking what I wanted for my birthday. (It was July) He wanted to get me an early birthday gift. So I asked for the Twilight dragon. He bought it online and sent it to me. I was super happy to have gotten him. I loved him sooo much! In fact, this dragon is my favorite Webkinz dragon currently! I know I said it was the Ice dragon, but that was plush form. Online I like the Twilight dragon. He's super unique compared to all the other dragons! Even the plush form looks different! I love his choice of colors as well!
The Twilight dragon wasn't popular when he came out. But I never saw him in any stores. He didn't retire until a few years later. The Twilight dragon is the rarest dragon. He goes for anywhere between $35-$60 with tag online. You can argue that he has the same value as the Ice dragon, but there are more Ice dragons for sale than Twilight and he's a bit more than her.
I'd highly suggest getting all these dragons online. They don't sell them in stores like they used to anymore!

Stormy Dragon
The Stormy dragon was released in April of 2012. He was the first dragon I ever ordered online on my own. Webkinz stopped arriving in stores and started disappearing for good. So I had no choice but to order him online. I'm a bit skeptical ordering plushies online because you don't know how they'll look when they come to you. They can look good and ok, or awful and have some kind of issues. Mine was ok except the eye you see, is crooked. He looks like he's looking down rather than forward unlike his other eye. He also had a little hole under his tail. His right wing is sorta stuck to the back of his body from poor stitching. So yah. But like I said, he isn't awful. He's..ok.
This dragon is super duper cute! He's very similar to the Whimsy dragon! In plush, he looks kinda grey. Online, he's purple! I love the lightening bolt shaped horns! I also LOVE the rainbow material used on his horns, belly, and tail arrow. He looks like a baby dragon to me. He's soo cute!
The Stormy dragon is not retired! He's very easy and cheap to get online new with tag! He goes from $10-$20 with tag.
He's not that old compared to my other dragons but i'm tempted to buy a new one. However, i'm just worried i'll get a bad looking one!

Citrus Dragon
The Citrus dragon was released October 2009. A month after the Lava dragon. What a break it was for me. I had known about the Citrus dragon and have saved up money to buy her when she arrived next month. This was the first bipedal dragon plush made. Despite being on two legs, online she's on all four like the others. I'm actually thankful for that. Because I wouldn't of enjoyed her walking around on two legs like a dinosaur haha. The Citrus dragon is pretty cute. She's very soft and had a cool long tail! She looks so scaly in her online image!
Citrus dragon is very easy to come by online. She's a little more than the Stormy dragon but not by much. She goes from anywhere between $12-$20 with tag.

Glitzy Dragon
The Glitzy dragon was released October of 2011. I wasn't very happy with this one. She was the first and only dragon I ignored getting. But after years passed, I eventually got her. She's cute in plush but I hate her online look. This is why I was thankful the Citrus dragon wasn't bipedal online. She just looks soo, dare I say ugly online? Her wings are suuper tiny. What really sucks about this dragon is there was a better looking idea for her online look. She looked completely different and better. But the problem was, she was too different from her plush form. So that must of been why they changed the design up. It was a real loss for me. I like the glitter on the fur of the plush. She kinda cute. But I feel she's too ''bald'' looking on the head. They could of added horns or spikes. I also dislike the fuzz on her tail. I don't like how her plush design wasn't like the Citrus'. She would of looked a lot better. So I bought her, but will never adopt her.
The Glitzy dragon is retired but, she's pretty cheap online. She goes for about $10-$18 online with tag. She isn't difficult to find online at all!

Chinese Dragon
This dragon was released in October of 2013. Little did I know that this was the last plush dragon to be released for a long long time. This was another dragon I ordered online. Luckily, i got a good looking one! This dragon looks awesome! I took a side view picture to show you the awesome body design in plush form. Chinese dragons always looked so cool! With they're long snake-like bodies. I LOVE the scale pattern. It looks really great! Nice choice of colors as well! I love the hair and long golden horns. This dragon looks adorable online! However clothing such as shirts and pants look strange of him due to his body shape haha! Still an awesome looking pet though!
The Chinese dragon isn't retired! He's easy to find online. He goes for about $15-$25 online with tag.
(Sadly, this was the last plush dragon. A single one hasn't been released since then. I don't count E-store dragons as one because they are not plush. Its been 4 years sadly. Hopefully a new one will arrive soon.)
