What’s popping, Poptropicans? I just wanted to pop in to say, there is no promo code for the iPad handheld – because it comes from an ad.
Those who have been lucky to get it (including myself & Poptropica blogger Nameless UnDEFiNed) have reported that it was obtained from watching a video ad on a non-SUI (islands without sound), such as Skullduggery. You can friend me (Blake) at mickety2 to see proof, or check out the picture to the right. (update: it’s no longer in my hand, but the picture should be proof enough!)
But now the plot thickens — another Poptropican, H.C.M, reports that he emailed Poptropica asking about the tablet handheld and was told it didn’t exist, completely contradicting the evidence above. Here’s the reply he got (but was it faked? the link to the Creators’ Blog is wrong):
(Hey, at least the PHB was referenced – kind of!) In addition to the above proof, Nameless notes that the SWF for the tablet handheld is uploaded on Poptropica’s servers, meaning the item has definitely been created. The item has since disappeared from my inventory, although I still retain the tablet in my Poptropican’s hand. (update: it’s gone; see above)
Remember what happened with the Virus Hunter Island promo game, Nano-Combat Training? Brave Tomato discovered it in the Store early, and there was even an ad for it on the homepage, but it was pulled down for a while before it came back for real again. If this situation is anything like that, then maybe the Creators are just denying their mistake of accidentally releasing it early and are possibly planning to bring it back at a later date. I certainly hope so, at least! 😛
Also, HP has found the video stand for the card in Poptropica’s files! Here’s what it looks like:
However, the comments have told me that this ad is no longer available, and has been replaced by the Dragons: Defenders of Berk ad. Hopefully we’ll see it return soon…
…and it really makes me happy, to introduce to you…
THE MUPPETS MOST WANTED AD! YAYYYYYY! *flails*
What’s popping, Poptropicans? Blake here, and today’s post is on the new Muppets Most Wanted video ad! All you have to do is watch the movie trailer, and you’ll get the Kermit Spirit Hoodie:
Also, it says to come back next week for the Constantine Criminal Power! This power looks like it steals the hair of other Poptropicans, so it looks like either a) it’s useful for uncostumizable hair, or b) we get to be Director D. Oh wait. I’m still flailing. *stops flailing* Sorry, avid Muppets fan here.
UPDATE: The Constantine Criminal Power is now available on the ad – just watch the video to get it! Though all it does is give you a mole and a briefcase…
I myself attended an advance screening of Muppets Most Wanted. I would give you pics, but I’m under pure contract not to reveal anything. Blake out! *poof*
What’s popping, Poptropicans? Blake here, back off vacation, coming at you with a very blocky Poptropica ad. This time it’s an ad for LEGO’s new line of Mixels, which go for about 5 bucks at any local store. Pick up one today! One place you can find this ad is Main Street of Mocktropica.
So anyway, this ad features two powers: the Cragster Stomp (below) and the Electroids Zap (above). These are both based on two of the three Mixel tribes. Ideally, I’d like to see them come out with more powers for the ad space when Mixels Series 2 and 3 come out.
There’s also a quiz you can take and win… absolutely NOTHING. As usual. *rolls eyes*
That’s pretty much all you can do in this ad, so on to what the powers actually do. I decided to test these out on some unsuspecting Islanders on Red Dragon, but you can do it wherever you want…
The Cragster Stomp transforms you into a Cragster, which is the black Mixel tribe. You stomp, which shakes the ground and knocks out every Poptropican in your wake. The Electroid Zap transforms you into the yellow Mixel and you shoot static. All in all, pretty lame prizes compared to what we’ve gotten in the past. So, this is Blake, signing off. Stay popping, Poptropicans.
Um, “what’s popping, Poptropicans…?” Blake’s out running errands, so he asked me, Timmy, to cover 2 new pieces of Poptropica news. So let’s move on with the post!
So anyway, first off, the Mocktropica guide is now up for the Poptropica walkthrough iOS app thing (I don’t know what it’s called, Blake never lets me use his iPhone… Hmm, he left it behind. Let me try something I’ve been wondering about..)
*TWO HOURS LATER*
Timmy: *playing Flappy Bird* this is so fascinating and addictive I don’t think I’ll eat or sleep in a week. Oh, right. So yeah, according to this app, the Mocktropica walkthrough is now up! Let’s hope there aren’t any bugs in the walkthrough… but if you can’t be bothered to open the app, just use the PHB’s Mocktropica Island Guide!
And in other news, if you check out Jeff Heim’s Poptropica Soundcloud, you may have heard… *puts on reading glasses* …what sounds like it’ll be a track for Monster Carnival. Thanks for that, Jeff Heim. Your tracks are always wonderful. *gives thumbs-up, tries to gain publicity like HP did because I’m a fame-hungry type of guy* You can listen to this wonderful track at his Soundcloud.
So it seems like that’s it for now in Poptropica. As always, stay popping, Poptropicans.
“TIMMY, I’M BACK! Wait, why are you doing the post for this week? I specifically told you NOT TO!”
SORRY!
