Like the other Supernatural Monster, the Wubbox, they all cannot breed nor be bred, contain the element Electricity, and have multiple life stages: inactive, in which the monsters cannot sing, move, nor produce Currency, and active, in which they do. Unlike the Wubbox, Wublins are not hatched from eggs: they are "woken up".
To "wake up" a Wublin, one must "Zap" unhatched Eggs into them. Each Wublin demands specific eggs, that need to be zapped before a certain amount of time passes, or else the eggs will "go bad": the Wublin will remain inactive, and the eggs will be useless.
The hard work pays off after a while: active Wublins are the only monsters which can produce multiple Currency types: every now and then, they will periodically generate Coins, Food, Shards or Diamonds, though not in large quantities.
Big Blue Bubble released a short teaser video on March 16th, 2016 [1], March 17, 2016 [2], March 18, 2016 [3], March 19, 2016 [4] and March 20, 2016 [5]
[6] showing a neon sign, reading "Wake up the Wublins" (or, alternately, #WakeUpTheWublins), lighting up with a sizzle of electricity and a roll of thunder.
Finally, on March 22, 2016, a video was released, showing the Wublins in much greater detail.
The Wublins are statue-like creatures made by their "mysterious maker". Like the Wubbox, they each require several eggs to activate them, the eggs required differing from Wublin to Wublin. The video suggests that they have something to do with electricity, like the Wubbox. The Wublins can be found only on Wublin Island. The first five Wublins were released on March 25, 2016.
The first Wublin teased was a firefly-looking monster making a sound similar to the Humbug. It was revealed to be a Zynth.
The second Wublin teased was a tall, lanky monster with a long toungue, strumming it, making the sound of a double bass being plucked. It was revealed to be Thwok.
The third Wublin teased was something with a shadow looking similar to the G'Joob, sitting at a drum set. Its sound, as one can probably guess, is the sound of a drum set. It was revealed to be a Dwumrohl.
The fourth Wublin teased looked akin to a tall bird with a Jeeode-Like instrument, making the sound of a pipe organ. It was revealed to be a Poewk.
The fifth Wublin teased was a bipedal amphibious a looking monster with leaves on its back. It stands in a posture similar to Reedling's, albeit with no arms. It says "Wake up the Wublins" repeatedly in a scratchy voice. It was revealed to be a Brump.
Wublin fun facts
On March 29th, 2016, BBB posted an animated GIF with some "more research on the Wublins", consisting of some trivia about them.
After the initial release, a sixth Wublin with a body resembling a hollow log could be seen in the bottom left corner of the loading screen. The monster's song is revealed here. It played in a similar way to a kazoo, and it was officially released on April 29th, 2016. It was revealed to be a Zuuker.
On May 3rd, 2016, when update 1.4.1 was announced, a 7th Wublin could be seen here. On May 26th, 2016, it was revealed to be named Screemuhere. The next day, a Vine came out revealing the Screemu's song. A few hours later, it could be found in game.

Purchase and Awakening
“
This Wublin statue has been carefully crafted by its mysterious maker, down to the finest detail. Now all that's missing is the spark of life! Instead of sending them to the nursery, zap the monster eggs you've bred on your other islands, and they'll transform into the electrical energy required to take up this Wublin.
”
— In-game statue description
All Wublins are initially bought as statues for 5,000. In a way akin to, but not exactly like the Wubbox, Wublins require Natural Monster eggs (straight from the Breeding Structure) to be "zapped" into them. However, unlike the Wubbox, Wublins must have their inventories completed in a set amount of time. If an inventory is not completed, the eggs will "go bad". Once a Wublin statue has a full inventory, it is ready to be awakened. Multiple Wublins can be inactive at once, though only one of each species can be obtained.
Once an egg is zapped into a Wublin statue, a countdown timer begins. This time ranges from two to fourteen days. All of the required eggs must be zapped into the Wublin before the time limit expires. If the time expires, all progress on that Wublin is lost, and the process will have to be restarted.
After they expire there are two options, collect the coin value of the expired eggs, or pay a certain amount of diamonds to buy the missing eggs that that weren't collected within the time limit. Tapping on icon above the expired Wublin will give a message saying "You Wublin has expired! You were <percentage>% done, with <number> eggs to box. Would you like to collect the coin value of the eggs and try again, or buy the missing eggs for <number>?". An icon of a dustbin full of smelly eggs appears above the expired Wublin.
Strategy
General tips
It's best to "zap" the eggs in order of decreasing breeding time: 4-element monsters first, then 3-element, then 2-element, then 1. This minimizes the amount of waiting that is needed for the eggs to finish breeding while the Wublin timer is counting down -- one of the longer wait times is out of the way before the clock even starts. If diamonds are ever needed to speed things up, less of them will end up being spent.
To reliably breed a 4-element monster egg, breeding together the normal and Rare versions of the monster is best: 100% chance of success (as long as the Rare version is not currently available to breed). To get a 3-element monster, breeding one with a 4-element monster gives a 99% chance of success (the other 1% gives an Ethereal). Breeding a 3-element monster with its own Rare also guarantees success. 2-element monsters can be bred reliably from their two 1-element parents. 1-element monsters can be reliably obtained by breeding one with a 4-element monster.
Do try to focus on one Wublin at a time, although you could still fill up multiple Wublins at once. Start focusing on breeding the eggs for the desired Wublin by breeding the eggs on multiple islands. Try to study where each monster egg can be bred in and try to efficiently provide eggs from each island. Do consider the lengths of times the eggs will be bred as well as the times of when you will be playing the game.
Look at the elements of the monsters you're trying to breed, and the monsters they can be bred from, compared to the monsters you need for a Wublin. For example, for the Dwumrohl, you can breed an Entbrat from a Bowgart and a Noggin. Any of these monsters can be zapped into the Dwumrohl even if the breeding is unsuccessful and you get one of the parent monsters as a result.
Another time-saving measure is to pre-breed as many of the required monsters as possible and have the eggs waiting in your Breeding Structures before zapping the first egg into your Wublin (ideally one from each island beginning with the monsters with the longest breeding times). Since your timer will begin running as soon as you zap the first egg, having five of the eggs with the longest breeding times already prepared could potentially save you multiple days depending on the Wublin. Users who have previously purchased at least one item for the game have the extra advantage of being able to purchase Bonus Breeding Structures for each of the five islands that the required inventory comes from and pre-breeding one additional monster per island, saving even more time. This is particularly useful for the Wublins that require multiple Quad- and Triple-Element monsters like Dwumrohl and Thwok.
Don't forget that some of the monsters can be bred on Shugabush Island, by "breeding failure".
Time management tips
Although multiple inactive Wublins can exist at once, it is recommended to focus on only one Wublin at a time. It is also a good idea to start off with trying to fully Zap the Brump, as it is the easiest to do -- it needs only 2-element monster eggs, which do not require luck, and only requires basic time management to finish successfully. Do note that some monster eggs require a certain island before they can be bred, due to their element configurations. A reasonable order for Zapping the Wublins is given below, from first to last. This order is determined on the basis of overall difficulty and island management. ("Min" refers to minimum island required for Zapping the Wublins without diamond spending, "min. recommend" refers to minimum recommended island for Zapping without diamond spending.)

Earnings
Monsters on Wublin Island earn a random amount of a random Currency. Possible currencies are: Coins, Diamonds, Shards, and Treats. The monsters in Wublin Island can generate among various ranges of 100,000 ±50,000 coins, 200 ±100 shards, 10,000 ±5,000 food, or just 2 diamonds. There is an equal chance of obtaining all currencies except diamonds, which due to their high value are considerably rarer.
All wublins has the same production rate, but algorithm is a bit more complex for wublins:
1. After collection, server selecting production type for the next collection, types and probabilities below:
Coins: 31%
Food: 31%
Shards: 31%
Diamonds: 7%
(in other words - on 100 collections you will have ~31 times coins, ~31 times shards, ~31 times food and ~7 times diamonds)
2. At the same time server generates random number of minutes to the next collection. Range is 360 - 719 minutes (6 - 12 hours), probability distribution is flat.
3. After the minutes passed - you can collect a reward.
Every wublin has the same rates for different production types:
Coins : 6500/hour (108.333333/min)
Food : 1200/hour (20/min)
Shards: 24/hour (0.4/min)
Diamonds: fixed amount: 2
For example, after collection on wublin server selects shards for the next collection and generates time 500 minutes for the next collection.
In this case after 8 hours and 20 minutes you can collect 200 shards (500*0.4) It you wait more, the reward will not increase, you will gain same 200 shards after 12 hours of wait, etc.

Known Glitches
In the initial release of the Wublins, pressing the Biggify icon of a woken Wublin and pressing cancel caused the Wublin to display additional options which could not be accessed normally. This bug was corrected on March 29th, 2016.
One of these options was the ability to feed it, which cost 2,000,000 food and did not seem to have any effect on the Wublin -- its level, seen only via the glitch, stayed at 1 and the level progress bar remained empty. (Yes, this was tested... a waste of some 10,000,000 food units.)
Beginning August 29, 2017, you can now purchase and place decorations on Wublin Island. Some decorations cause a Wublin to get "happy" (that is, hearts float off of the Wublin) when placed within proximity of the Wublin. Whether this is a glitch or does in fact increase the Wublin's happiness level is unknown. It is also unknown what effect, if any, a Wublin's happiness level has on their currency production. The decorations that cause this effect are Digger , Toob , Ambered Thing , and Tub Fountain .
Prior to August 29, 2017, it was also possible to display the Wublin's supposed likes, which were the same for all of the Wublins: Digger, Toob, and Ambered Thing, as well as the "mystery like" icon. One could seem to buy the decorations from the page of likes, and place them on the island. However, no coins were spent when "buying" one, and after the decoration was placed, it couldn't be selected again. When one left the island, all decorations disappeared. Strangely, the Wublin's likes were the same as the Wubbox's likes; if the Mystery Like was Tub Fountain, that is.
Tapping out of the monster made the glitch disappear.
Notes
Potential Wubbox Wublin. After all, "shrouded in mystery, and dubstep" could mean Wubbox.
In previous versions of MSM, the Wublins inventory showed separate "slots" for each egg, like the cakes in Minecraft.
The first five Wublins released each represent a different instrument type: Brump is vocal, Zynth is synthesizer, Poewk is wind instrument, Thwok is string instrument, and Dwumrohl is percussion.
Starting with the Zuuker, a new Wublin is released every last Friday of every month. The exceptions to this are the Tympa, Blipsqueak, and the Scargo.
In the Wubbox discount during 9th April 2016, it shows the Wubbox having an interview on the Wublins. On this image in Facebook, the caption states that when asked who made the Wublins, the Wubbox merely shrugged. However, there appear to be (inactive) Wublins in the background of the picture, indicating some sort of connection.
Later, on May 21st 2016, this post revealed many faces of wubbox, including the "sneaky" face, which is what wubbox had when he shrugged.
On August 30, 2017, it was revealed that the Wubbox is the creator of the Wublins in an update that added it to Wublin Island.
A GIF file was found on Facebook about some monster research of the first 5 Wublins. The GIF file can be found here, and can be split into its component frames by using certain programs or websites.
The wublin to currently require the most eggs in order to be woken up is the Dwumrohl, who takes 14 days to collect 72 eggs.
The wublin to currently require the least eggs in order to be woken up is the Brump, who takes 2 days to collect 8 eggs.
Even though there is no Castle on Wublin Island, and no Bed Counter on the Island Select Screen, all Wublins appear to take up 1 bed according to the Fabled Book of Monsters
Wublins do not have levels and do not require feeding, unlike the Wubbox.
Beginning on August 29, 2017, you can now buy multiple Wublins of the same type.
