Greetings with Goofball & Grimace 💄🌚

Hey Poptropicans, it’s time to pop on the trends!

Because we can’t escape the Barbenheimer craze this week with both Barbie and Oppenheimer now in theaters, Poptropica has jumped on the bandwagon with a Pop twist: comparing how the two films’ vibes are like the stark contrast between Dullsville and Goofside on Goofball Island.

A few weeks earlier, Poptropica was hot on another trend and its similarity to a Pop adventure: the Grimace Shake foreshadowed by the classic Zomberry Island! Like the bad blueberries causing a zombie outbreak in the game, the purple McDonald’s milkshake was known to “infect” its consumers, who pretended to fall sick for kicks on TikTok.

Check out this (Pop)-twisted take of the Grimace Shake meme from the PHB’s Gentle Dolphin! Stay safe out there, folks.

Speaking of fan art, shout-out to Clover @clomellu for sharing these cool clay creations of Hades from Mythology Island and Dr. Hare:

By the way, we’re just a few days away from announcing the winners of the 2023 Poppies with a video drop and party! Catch us on the PHC and the Poptropica Arcade on Friday, July 28 at 7pm EST — details in our party invite here. Hope to see many of you there! 🥳🥂
