When I logged on last night, there was another update. When you get this update, the henchmen fight game pops up instead of the the henchmen just stealing your coins. Pretty neat little addition. New funkeys are walking around Funkeystown, too.

Thanks, Webgopher for the alert! I didn't know about it until I read this yesterday. That is a good change they made! I quoted you on my blog & gave you credit for the breaking news, hope that's okay! (about 150+ people will read it today!)

Hey I read that this makes it so you can no longer put a rare or very rare funkey in another funkey's store to get the items.
Not to mention it has totally locked up access to our cribs.

Oh, no, that's not good AT ALL! I'll have to check into that. We need to keep our secrets secret for now.....they are on to us about the rare "swap out". We had access to our crib yesterday, but I'll go see if we still do today.

Okay, just verified that we couldn't see the rare items with our rare funkey "swap out".
The UB Funkey website finally opened their forums & someone posted that glitch about the swap. That probably caught the attention of Mattel & they fixed it in this update. So that confirms that it was a true glitch. Gee, that will cost us, won't it? Unless we just borrow our friends' rare & very rare Funkeys until you buy the rare items you want!!!
wisteriatayu - can you get in at all to your cribs? Or just can't get to the saved ones? I was able to enter ours.

To everyone who has not played the game while connected to the internet in the past couple days - DO NOT accept the updates until you go to the marts and buy every "rare" & "very rare" item that you want while swapping out your few rare Funkeys that you might already have. This will be your last chance to do it before you'll need to buy the specific Rare Funkeys in order to buy the rare items!

what do you mean? i have the updates and everythig is fine i even fixxed my game room?! Do you mean my warning? Well, it's too late for us! But I was hoping to save someone else the disappointment of loosing the "glitch" if they haven't gotten the updates yet. When you say everything is fine, does that mean you can use any rare funkey in any of the marts & it works to buy a rare item? How did you fix your game room?

And webgopher- what "new" funkeys do you see walking around? I have seen sprocket, dot, bandit and drift for a while now. Do you mean speed racer funkeys are walking around?

Yes i can buy any thing, rare, not rare, very rare any thing. After you posted the warning i went and bought a rare tiki mask and a very rare tiki mask. i even put them into my crib ( the one under construction will be up soon!) every thing worked fine. the game room problem was just a small glitch it went away though (sp?). I'm so sorry for the people who had problems with their computer/funkeys. if any thing happens I'll post.

Luli - did you use a funkey other than rare & very rare Tiki? Because we just checked again using our rare Tiki in Twinx's Mart & no rare items appeared like it did prior to the 2.6 update.
Just to clarify - everything should be working as usual with a rare Funkey in their own marts, it's just that they were working in every other character's mart also prior to a couple days ago. (My writing might not be clear, so if someone else wants to jump in & rephrase that, I won't be offended at all!!! Thanks!)
At this point, we can help each other out by posting our cribs under "Cribs" & point out the rare & very items and where they came from. I think many of you are already doing that (Thanks!).......that way we'll know which rare ones we want to buy.

Timmster - the new Funkeys (not Speed Racer ones) were around the Racing area, but now I see them all over town and in the Grand Funkey Station, Library and Museum. I don't think they were in all those places before.

I have seen new funkeys (except speed racer) for awhile. Hmmm. I wonder if our updates work differently? 2 questions-- when you log on and allow an update with one player, does it update all players? I was thinking you had to do it with each player but have not been prompted other than once. (and we have 4 players) I was HOPING it had to be done on each user- so we could still get rare items on the other 3 players... Second question-- do we still get more coins if we switch to ANY rare or very rare guy for game play?

After the henchman update, were other people able to open up cribs that had rare and very rare items they bought without the proper funkey? If so, I will buy what I want before that update. Because I'd hate to do it again and have the same problem when I get to that update.

We have not had any problem opening up our cribs... and I believe everything is still there. (and we bought lots of rare items using the switcheroo method)
