This game is defunct. Do note the game no longer works at all without modifications. This is most likely due to the game's servers being shut down. As a result, further official developments with the game are unlikely to happen.

To do: * There is more unused content. There's also a lot more unused items. Can someone make a separate page for such? Is an article on revisional differences possible? Double-check the Penguin Cup soccer game, as there are shapes that may not be used. Penguin Tales: Volume 3 contains some more strange drawings that may be unused.

Club Penguin was an extremely popular online MMORPG involving penguins that started up in 2005, was bought out by Disney in 2007, and was shut down on March 29, 2017.

Unused Items

There are some unused SWF files hidden in the game's files, attributed to items. Mascot items are excluded as they technically are used, but not for players' use. Unused items without graphics on the game will appear as "X"s in the inventory. These are commonly referred to as "bait items", as attempting to get most of these items through hacking would result in either a 72-hour or permanent ban.

"Remove" Items

The Remove X items do exactly what their names imply. Their only use is for moderators to remove bait items that turn players into mascots, as some cannot be removed by clicking them on a Player Card like most items.

Old Blue

Perhaps the most [in]famous unused item, "Old Blue" dates back to Club Penguin's predecessor called Penguin Chat 3. While it was used there, in Club Penguin it was used as a dummy color and was not available for purchase in-game, and attempting to obtain it would result in a ban. Old Blue was notorious for making various other appearances in the game, such as the NPCs in Sled Racing and mascots. There were also several glitches throughout the game's lifetime that used to turn your penguin Old Blue temporarily.

Lavender

Lavender was a candidate in both the 2006 and 2009 Color Vote, but lost in favor of Lime Green and Aqua. It was not available in game for purchase as such. The other candidate in the 2009 Color Vote, Maroon, also lost, but no .swf files for that color can be found. Eventually, a different shade of Lavender was created for Dot the Disguise Gal when she became an official mascot which was also a bait item just like Sensei Gray.

Maroon

Maroon was an unreleased color in Club Penguin. It was one of the losing candidate colors in the 2009 Color Vote. It was last place in the color vote, losing to Aqua and was also heavily behind Lavender in votes.

Dark Black

Dark Black was commonly a placeholder color for unfinished minigames where the color of the penguin was determined by what color the player's penguin was, and was most likely unintended for release.

Antarctica Flag

No graphical file. It was probably going to be one of the pins at the end of the Penguin Style clothing catalog. It was probably scrapped due to the fact that Antarctica does not have an official flag.

StormtrooperBOT

A bizarrely-named file, probably intended for the Star Wars party in 2013. It had the data to classify it as a head item, but otherwise not much is known about it. As with most of the other items here, it has no graphical file.

Skateboard

A very plainly-named item that costs 320 coins. It is a feet item. No .swf is loaded for it, so it goes unused.

Tour Guide Headband

An item that does have an .swf file loaded for it, but just goes unused and is not possible to obtain. It appears similarly to the used Umbrella Hat. A tutorial penguin named Tourdude does wear this hat in artwork, possibly implying that this item was intended for use with mascots, should Tourdude have appeared as a character that player could have interacted with.

Cement Shoes

Costs 5 coins when permed. A duplicate of the Water Wings item for your feet.

Orange Jumper

Doesn't show up when permed, as there is no graphical file.

MP3K

Doesn't show up when permed, as there is no graphical file.

Angel Halo

No graphical file for this one, either.

KananBOT

Another file name with BOT at the end. No .swf file for this one as well. It's possible the BOT at the end was a filename for items used by bots and was never intended for use by players, like mascot clothing.

Bling Bling Medallion

An item that has no .swf and thus goes unused. It's possible that it was an early version of the Bling Bling Necklace, which is a permable item.

Sleeping Bag

An unused furniture item with no graphics available.
