Continued from the story on Excalibur’s Fate:
A few hours later, Hazmat Hermit finally emerged from the sticky mud. “Yuck, my suit’s full of dirt!” he cried. Not knowing what else he should do, he started to wade through the mud, investigating, despite his vow not to do so a few hours earlier. It was several more days before he finally reached A Place With No Mud.

“Wow, it’s pretty! It’s beautiful!” gasped the hermit in awe. The muddy landscape was now gone, and in its place was one of the most wonderful sights he’d ever seen. The ice caps before him seemed to glow in the purple sunshine. Yet just at that moment, a little roundish fish jumped up from the water under the snow, formed its mouth together as if it were about to take a bite, and with a loud “CHOMP!”, splashed back into the water. “This is so wrong. A grouchy sea inhabitant in this mystical land? They don’t match, do they.” Little did he know about his next trouble that was already waiting for him…

The sound of a motor suddenly got the attention of Hazmat H., and he looked up. Above him, among the purple and blue rays of the sky, was a huge metallic beast! It was descending at an alarming rate of speed, and HH, to afraid to move, just stood there like a frozen statue. Unfortunately, the metal monster took advantage of this, and five seconds later, its menacing eyes were right in front of Mr. Hermit’s face! Oh no!, thought the hermit, that’s not just a metal monster; that’s a Tigercopter – one of the biggest beings of Poptropica, and it’s out to get me!

“Rrrraaah!” The Tigercopter roared fiercely, scratching its tail against Hazmat Hermit. “Ow!” screeched HH, as he began to run away from the half-helicopter, half-tiger. Unfortunately, the Tigercopter started clawing at Haz, who jumped away from it. The hermit was panicking so hard now, he wasn’t even sure where he was going. Somehow – and no one, not even the hermit himself, knew exactly how – he had managed to escape, but just barely. “I sure hope my adventures will be more pleasant in the future,” groaned Haz.

And there you have it – Hazmat Hermit’s opinion to Astro-Knights Island: “It’s pretty, it’s beautiful, it’s wrong.” But what do you think? :mrgreen:

Blog Post Title: Eye of the Tigercopter
Description: After a long search for a cleaner, more sterile environment, I stumbled upon a whole world of snow and ice. It was the perfect place to live – not a speck of dirt or grime for miles. Unfortunately, the native robot-life wasn’t very friendly. I barely managed to escape with my suit intact and free of claw marks.

Interestingly, the title “Eye of the Tigercopter” is a reference to a song called Eye of the Tiger. The name “Tigercopter” suggests that the thing shown in the sneak peek is half-tiger (the shape of the head, mouth, eyes, claws, and tail) and half-helicopter (the shape of the body, the rotor blades, and the metallic look).

Please note that the above story is completely fiction, a story written by the PHB Team to entertain the readers.

  1. These sneak peeks are getting weirder, a bird plane and a Tigercopter? Maybe one of these two is in that icy place and the other in the lava place; I really don’t know.

    1. Yeah, there are three moons, and the clouds are going at a diangonal, and maybe those yellow balls in the tiger copter is launched at you and u have to avoid them and grab somthing.

      Is that wind above the copter? You know, those line thingys?

    Scary Tomato: According to Poptropica’s Creators, it is a “Tigercopter”, which I assume is a half-tiger, half-helicopter. 😉

  14. AK island is going to be hard. Remember that the Sneak Peeks only show PART of the island, so there remains a lot that we won’t see ’till AK’s release.

  20. I wonder what ideas the Poptropica creators had instead of a tigercopter? Why not a turtlecopter? Or a bearcopter? Probably because this looks cooler! 😀
