Remarkable Realms & PopStorm #13 (eyebrows)

Hey guys! This week, theย Creators have been sharing a ton of Remarkable Realmsย creations (mostly over Twitter), so just sit back and enjoy! ๐Ÿ˜€

Amazing work! For more on Realms, check out our Poptropica Realms Guide. Other than Realmsย creations, the Creators have also sharedย PopStorm #13, which might raise some eyebrows… if Poptropicans had eyebrows.

In other Twitter-related news, a recent tweet from Poptropica reveals that they are indeed planning for a Poptropica show someday, as we’d suspected!

And finally, the PHB’s Galactic Hot Dogs Island Guide – written by our very own Brave Tomato and Blake – is now up! Speaking of GHD, the comic’sย font is called Arnold 2.1 (thanks to Poptrickia for the random tidbit of info!). You can download it for free here.

Well, that’s it for now. Until next time! ๐Ÿ™‚

Galactic Hot Dogs Island, PHB Sneak Peeks

BTS Overview & Theory: Galactic Hot Dogs

BTS - Galactic Hot Dogs

Hey everyone, and welcome back to our BTS Overview &ย Theory series! This time, weโ€™ll be coveringย Galactic Hot Dogs Island, written by myself (Spotted Dragon), Samwow5, and HPuterpop. Be sure to check out the last BTS post, which was for Arabian Nights, Episode 2: Lair of Thieves.

WARNING: SPOILERS BELOW (but thatโ€™s what you want, isnโ€™t it?)

Overview of evidence

Since there have been so many Daily Pop sneak peeks for GHD Island, we won’t list them all here, but we have listed some below. Be sure to check out our Daily Pop Sneak Peek Archive page to see them all! Remember to click on the images to enlarge them.

Let’s start out with items. Below are all the items that will be used in the quest, or at least all that we could find. They include an egg, fuel cell, fruit, gelatin salad, giant spoon, guano, map-o-sphere, the island medal, and a seed pod. What most of these items will be used for, we aren’t entirely sure, but we might be able to piece everything together later on in the post. galacticItems Pretty cool items, huh? Now let’s focus on scenes and dialog. Below we have includedย all the important scene designs for the island.

Again, pretty cool, huh? The designs are a perfect mix of Poptropica and Galactic Hot Dogs. ๐Ÿ™‚ We have the layout of the island down, but what about itsย storyline? Below we have put together all the important pieces ofย dialog and other text. Again, click to enlarge.

Judging by the text, we seem to start the island off in the Space Port, or at least start to meet the characters there. It also looks like we will help Cosmoe in aย food truck contest among other things. We also found a major piece of music that will be used throughout the adventure. Click here to hearย it! Before we wrap things up, since this island is based off something that is not Poptropica-related (Galactic Hot Dogs), there is of course going to be some sort of ad building for the franchise, like on Red Dragon Islandย (Magic Tree House),ย or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Those islands each have a building to promote the books. Below is an idea of what the GHD Store should have… in store for us.

Other than getting a glimpse at the GHD series, it seems like we will be able to customize the characters’ costumes too, since there will beย mannequins inside.

Final Theory

In Galactic Hot Dogs Island, we will meet Cosmoe and Humphree and try to help them win the food truck contest. Along the way, we’ll run into trouble and meet Princess Dagger. We will most likely have to go around the island trying to help them perfect their Mega Dog and perhaps somehow bring peaceย to the galaxy. In our travels aboard theย Neon Wiener spaceship, we’ll explore exotic planets, battle Jack-robots, and maybe even get toย enjoyย a hot dog. Maybe.

Remember, Galactic Hot Dogs Island is coming out Thursday, January 29 for members! It releases to everyone three weeks later, onย February 19. To infinity and beyond!

Strange Things: Magic, missing Daily Pops, & Realms to all!

Hey guys! A lot of strange things have been going on in Poptropica lately.

First of all, there is a new ad popping up called Strange Magic! The ad can be found on islands such as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on Main Street or in between places. All you have to do to earn your prize is watch its movie trailer. Girls get Fairy Wings andย boys get a Staff and Impย costume.

If space bar is pressed while wearing the wings or staff, a shortย scene will play out where an imp will appear on screen and your Poptropican will fly.

Speaking of “strange”, if you’ve checked out theย Daily Pops recently, you may have noticed that sneak peeks haven’t been posted on their usual schedule. In fact, there haven’t been any new sneak peeks at all this week, and a couple of days in the past couple of weeks have been skipped as well.

There have only been 9 sneak peeks in January when there should’ve been 17 at this point (one for every weekday). Here they are below:

The most recent image was Head Games: What’s in the box? and was uploaded on January 16. It seems to be for Galactic Hot Dogs Island, but that’s not the point. ๐Ÿ˜›

Even though the Daily Pop schedule has beenย sporadic this month, the PHB has all of the imagesย that have been uploaded ready for you to viewย on ourย Daily Pop Sneak Peek Archive. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Lastly, as you may have seen in the updatesย toย HP’s Poptropica Realms post,ย Poptropica Realms is now open to all!ย Check out the PHB’s Realms guide for an in-depth look.

Lots of stuff has been added to HP’s Realms post below, including some strange hats relating to biomes that can be found in Realms, itsย theme music, and a video tour from HP himself. ๐Ÿ™‚

Ads: Odd Squad & BoxTrolls, plus new pop quizzes

Hey guys! PHBย commenter Cuddly Knuckleย recently gave us a heads up on two new ads on Poptropica, whichย can be found on Main Streetsย such as those on Spy Island andย Early Poptropica.

Let’s look at the Odd Squad ad first. All you have to do is watch a quick video to earn your prize!ย Boys get the Agent Otto costume and girls get the Agent Olive costume.

ad 1

The other ad is for theย BoxTrolls, and again, all you have to do is watch a quick video!ย Afterwards, you will get the BoxTrolls Transformer. When you click “transform”, all the Poptropicans near you willย become BoxTrolls!

ad 2

Also, remember those newย popย quizzes that HP mentioned? Well, they’re finally popping up! This one hereย asks if you would ever join the circus, and the other one shown in HP’s sneak peek asks if you like poetry. For a list of all the pop quizzes available, check out the PHB’s Pop Quizzes page!

That’s all for now!

Coming soon: GHD Island, Realms, & more

Hey guys! There’s a lot of Poptropica news to cover, so let’s get right into it.

First off,ย the Creators have announced thatย Galactic Hot Dogs Island will be coming to Poptropica in 15 days. That is January 29, aย Thursday. They also mentioned that a Galactic Hot Dogs book will be coming to bookstores in 110 days. That is May 4, a Monday. (Click here for more GHD peeks!)

Second up, check out this awesome “bubble universe”ย sneak peek forย Poptropica Realms!

Third up, the Creators tweeted thisย cool layout of all the train carriages on Mystery Train Island – a glimpse intoย a planning stage of the past.ย Pretty interesting! ๐Ÿ˜›

They also tweeted another PopStormย (#11) – this one is a bunch of little jumping jellybeans. Cute! :3

Lastly, PoptropiCon: Episode 2 (Spoiler Alert) is now available for iOS, and it’s free! The Creators tweeted this image along with it, which HP posted earlier as an unreleased carousel slide for the redesigned Poptropica layout, so although it’s not on the front page, it looks like it still served some purpose after all.

popconSlideThatโ€™s it for this time around! ๐Ÿ˜€
