I figure this is major enough to keep it separate from the general S40 thread. A new Wheel Watchers Club Email reveals that a special "XL Wedge" will be used exclusively for season premiere week and what is presumably its sixth episode on October 24. The Wedge will be similar to the Million Dollar Wedge and Home Wedge. It does not have any value in the main game. If a contestant picks it up and takes it to the Bonus Round, they will win a $40,000 bonus if they solve the puzzle (implicitly, on top of whatever is in the Bonus Round envelope, essentially making the Bonus Round prizes $80K-$140K), and $40,000 will go to a SPIN ID holder. www.wheeloffortune.com/win/xl-giveaway

Hmm, that should make things very interesting in the bonus round on premiere week. A contestant could win at least $80,000 or $40,000 and a new car in the bonus round with the XL wedge.
It also has on the website that Wheel Watchers can win the same prize as the contestant in the Prize Puzzle round the first week and October 24.

Wow! It would be nice if it was used for all weeks. I also wanted the Home to be on for all weeks. What wedge will it be placed on?

I just saw a promo for the wedge. It will go over the yellow $850. There's a graphic for when someone has it on the podium. And, will someone make a graphic for the wedge?
