Shrink Ray Gun!

elmopwns

Hey everyone. There’s a new item in the Poptropica Store once again. It’s based off of…you guessed it, Shrink Ray Island! Nonmembers will be able to play very soon!

Can it really shrink everything? I wonder if you can actually turn buildings small with this thing 😉

As mentioned in the comments, there was an alternative you could’ve used with the Despicable Me Shrink Ray from that one ad room…about all those little midgets I think :/. But now, you’ll need no alternative. You can now buy the official Shrink Ray Gun in the Poptropica Store for free if you’re a member, or 150 credits.

PS: Back from my trip. EP out.

Snapshot Series

This series just gets better and better, isn’t that right, Quiet Boot

elmopwns

This new superstars series just gets bettter and better :D. Today’s superstar is… Quiet Boot.

Quiet Boot has membership on Poptropica. She’s finished the two newest islands (Red Dragon and Shrink Ray) on the day they were released. Talk about dedication.

The creators also mentioned about making de islands harder…gosh…NO…bad idea, creators (shakes head). Ugh. Shrink Ray Island lowered my self esteem by a notch at first xD.

Quiet Boot’s ranks unbeaten on the Red Dragon Island “Prepare for Impact” sumo wrestling game. Another reason why you’d have to be pretty dedicated to do that :P. Congratulations, Quiet Boot! You may be quiet but you’re a star player to boot, and you’ve certainly aced the game so far.

Hope some author on this blog like Hijuyo gets recognized as well. What if hi.Juyo gets on there? She certainly should be recognized for her blogging achievements. I’d bet a dollar on that :P. EP out!

Snapshot Series

The next superstar: Fierce Moon!

The creators are very eager and zealous to continue this new series it seems. I’d have to say, NICE IDEA, creators. They’re starting to recognize VIP players and top gamers in the world of Poptropica. The new PCB post is all about the newest Superstar.

Say hello to Fierce Moon!

She’s completed 19 out of the 20 islands – all except Red Dragon Island. Get out there and FINISH IT, Fierce Moon! It says in the new superstars post that it she’s also completed all the miniquests including Haunted House, Dr. Hare’s Secret Lab, etc. Work hard to beat everything, Fierce Moon. Have fun being recognized as a star. 😀

Also, Hijuyo recognized that yesterday’s superstar, Grumpy Icicle, is a PHB reader. He even commented on the post! According to several comments from PHB readers on this post, Fierce Moon runs the Poptropica fansite known as PoptropicaSecrets. (The original PCB post referenced with the phrase “Poptropica secrets.”) So if you’re reading this, FM, we wish you a big congrats!

Snapshot Series

I wanna be a star too :D

The creators have started a whole new series on the PCB. Remember snapshot sagas? It’s almost just like that except that they don’t just go to random players. They actually look at your record and select top players from Poptropica. Players familiar with snapshot sagas will probably be drawn into this as well.

The new series is called Poptropica Superstars! They select top players that are totally into the game, and then mention them into a new post. Todays superstar is…*drumroll*….Grumpy Icicle!

Poptropica Superstars: Grumpy Icicle

Millions and millions of kids love Poptropica, and we love you all right back. That’s why, all this week, we’re going to showcase some of our most dedicated players right here in the creators’ blog. Say hello to the first Poptropica Superstar, Grumpy Icicle!

Grumpy Icicle has beaten 18 of the 20 Poptropica Islands, including the toughest one, Astro-Knights. He was number 1 on our list of the first 10 Poptropicans to finish Cryptids Island, and he just missed appearing on the list of the first 10 to finish Shrink Ray Island. Grumpy Icicle was number 11.

Whoah. Top finisher on one island is pretty amazing. Top finisher on two islands? You’d have to be pretty big of a fan to do that. These people work fast :D. He’s completed 18 out of 20 of the series of islands. Job well done, Grumpy Icicle. You’re a true star!

Well, 6 more days until I get back to good old US. EP out!

EDIT: Just wanted to add that we’re honored to say that Grumpy Icicle is one of our many PHB readers, and he has commented on this blog a couple times. His username is Xalevoid, and you can look him up on the Avatar Studio for proof. If you’re reading this, G.I., the PHB says congratulations! 😀 ~Hijuyo

Turn off all special abilities!

elmopwns

Hello everyone! It’s EP here in China with a quick post detailing a new feature inside the Poptropica store. Below is a picture picturing the new feature, which is carefully circled in red.

Special thanks to Shaggy Tornado for this pic. Also, according to ST, Icy Lightning on the phc discovered this first and notified us! Thankyou to both of you guys! Meh computer is running so slow right now. The wifi in China isn’t so great and it’s hard to even save a photo.  So thanks so much ST! Behold:

It’s pretty self explanatory. Want all your special abilities turned off? A click of a button will let you switch them all off. Want to turn the phantom abilitiy, electrifying ability, and shrink ability all off  instead of going back one by one? This new and innovative button will get the job done easier!

Thanks for reading this quick post. Blogger and gmail is banned in China here, but I’m using a proxy server which can barely get past the IP block. I can still be active here, guys. I’ll try to post if something hasn’t been done in a day. EP out!
