Kinectimals Disappearing cubs

Hi Frontier team,

first of all, my compliments for your great game. This coming from a cat enthousiast who has worked with cheetahs in Africa.

I've read in other forum threads that the 'extra' (promotional) cub were put in the game after all huts were already assigned, and that some of those new cubs might seem to 'disappear' in the game, but can be found by opening the menu in the scan stone screen.

However, I've managed to gather quite some tags (the plush versions, King Cheetah, Maltese Tiger, Golden Tabby Tiger, Fishing Cat) but I noticed that it's the 'original' cubs that seem to disappear from the game. For example: I no longer have access to the original cheetah or the lion cub, and I see the Serval both at the bonding circle AND in the first set of huts. When visiting the menu at the Scan stone, only the Fishing Cat can be selected there.

Any idea what could have caused this and what I need to do so I can select every cub again?

Have you checked the other groups of huts? Each animal is assigned a specific hut, the map for Fur Town will show which huts have cubs in.

If you mean the animals that you first encounter in the bonding circle, when you choose your first animal, the other cubs are then locked and have to be unlocked through the game. They are unlocked by getting gold medals in the contests.

Ahhh, I see now. My question probably boiled down to the RTFM category *facepalm*

Just out of curiousity: what are the requirements for unlocking the 'original' cubs again? A specific amount of gold medals? Gold medals in specific contests?
 
Great! I'll get to work on the gold medals right away.

While I'm busy asking questions, might as well try my luck: Because I like to collect as much as I like to play (blame Pokemon!), I'm wondering if all the special pre-order cubs (i.e. the special color patterns, the ocelot) will become available as DLC at some point in the future.

Is there anything you are allowed to tell us with regards to upcoming content?
