Mythology Island, PHB Sneak Peeks

This Time it’s Revolution!

Slanted Fish

Ahoy! What “arr” the Poptropica Creators up to this time? Posted on the official Poptropica Facebook page under the picture album titled “The Making of Poptropica”, is a cool sneak peek of some Poptropican characters you may encounter in the future!

Fear God, not man. 🙂

In the top-left corner of this picture, we see an old sailor with a green cap puffing on his cigar after a hard day’s work. Next to him is a simple-looking pirate cabin boy with a brown bandana wrapped around his head. And on the top-right, fearfully, are two pirate captains with golden peg legs!

The lower row of this sneak peek is occupied by four British (Redcoats; right)/American (Patriots; left) soldiers who look like they’ve stepped out of the Revolutionary War. Armed with guns with bayonets at the tip; you don’t want to get on their bad side! But freedom comes at a high cost, sometimes even requiring bloodshed… are you up for the battle?

Join the Order of the Astro Knights! <<<And have the power to defend for your rights!

UPDATE: Another sketch pic from the Poptropica Facebook page! 😀

Order of the Astro Knights

Slanted Fish

Hear ye! Hear ye! Hear ye!

Calling all wild souls to join the Order of the Astro Knights! Among the back of our clan are our most mysterious members, commonly referred to as the Dark Knights. These tough purple girls and shadowy black boys have looks that can kill, especially those who are weak at heart.

On the sidelines, we have pretty Heart Knights dressed for battle. With the hearts they always leave trailing behind, no one can resist admiring them even just a little. And up front we’ve got the bravest of the adventures: the Earth Knights, equipped with the strongest bronze and greenest leaves.

JOIN NOW! You can purchase your very own set of armor at the Poptropica Store for 75 credits, or if you’re a member, get it free. Then march over to Astro-Knights and fight with the rest of the legion to defend Poptropica!

In fact, several of our knights have caught up with a fellow known throughout the lands as Master Mime, who told us:

Word on the street is that goth girls do brush their teeth. True. Goth girls are very cool, pretty and typically have minty breath. I just happened to meet one on Astro – Knights Island that must have just eaten some garlic bread.

So if you find a goth kid roaming the streets of Arturus, don’t be afraid to say hello. They’re not as scary as you may think! 😉

Sneak Peeks, Store

Knights Take Over

Slanted Fish

Astro-Knights don’t cut it – we need real brave, strong knights to fight for Poptropica’s truth and justice. At least, that’s what Poptropica Creator Master Mime thinks. On the Creators’ Blog, he gave us all a sneak peek of two upcoming knight costumes coming soon to the Poptropica Store – Earth Knight and Dark Knight.

Oh my stars, it’s a NEW ASTRO – KNIGHT!

I guess meeting an Astro Knight isn’t enough anymore. Now you can be one. The Poptropica Creators are about to release the Earth Knight in the store. This knight has a leafy trail that follows behind and a helmet that can be open or closed while dueling death-defying deeds.


Hmmmm…this kind of helmet might come in handy for rescuing maidens. Note to self: Keep helmet open for pretty maidens that want a kiss. Keep it shut for the maidens that don’t brush their teeth.

Believe it or not, Master Mime sounds like he’s trying to impress the girls. o_O

Heh, at least he gave some pretty cool descriptions for the battle suits. ^_^ Anyway, Poptropica will also soon be releasing a fearsome purple set of armor for the tough gals out there, too… so just watch out! You never know when someone might strike you next. 🙂

Thanks to MuddyDragon for posting this update on the PHF.

I must be having a knightmare

Speaking of knights and maidens, here is a maiden you don’t want to mess with. This is the one and only Dark Knight suit for girls. Challenge this furious female to a duel and you might end up looking like shredded paper.

You might want to take a look in the store later this week and see for yourself.

Update: Here are some photos from Poptropica’s Facebook page, in an album titled “Astro Knights Costumes.” Apparently boys will be getting their own version of the Dark Knight, which is black. Girls can look forward to a Heart Astro Knight as well.

Mythology Island

Mythical Mission

Slanted Fish

The Poptropica Help Team wishes you a

:mrgreen: Happy Easter! :mrgreen:

For members, a new mythical mission awaits them on the latest Poptropica island -Mythology Island. To all the non-members (*high-fives*) out there, this island will be released FREE for everyone on April 29th.

Poptropica Creator Shark Boy says on the official Creators’ Blog that “We hope you enjoy it, this was a fun one to make. We have more awesome islands in the works, so stay tuned!” (More cool islands are on their way!)

Evidently, Vlad the Viking (another Poptropica Creator) agrees, declaring that “Mythology Island is the stuff of legends!” For those who aren’t members yet, he’s got them hooked with the official Mythology Island video trailer:

What do you think of Poptropica’s Mythology Island?

Contests

Wolf Quest

Slanted Fish

Smockers’ contest is now closed. More than 100 comments have been posted. The winner of this contest is……our very own COSKIT! Congratulations!

Coskit, unlike many others, only posted 2 entries, but apparently at the right time. Her comment was 100th. All spam and double comments have been deleted, and she is the official winner. Congratulations, Coskit! Your account will get a month of Membership for RTV access.

Update: The “Wolf Quest” contest is now closed; thanks for participating. But check the comments below for another contest – hosted by Smockers – for a chance to win free Poptropica membership for your own account! (:

March 4th is the perfect day for marching forth. Because today, March 4, 2010, the PHB reached the grand 3 million hits! Thanks to all of you who have come to our website for Poptropica help, and returning as regular visitors! 🙂

And in honor of this milestone, the Poptropica Help Blog is going to host a community contest right on this post! It’s simple, and [hopefully] fun for everyone. :mrgreen:

Whoever writes the 100th (non-spam) comment on this post wins a very special Poptropica account. It’s not the best account out there, but to anyone who cares about the PHB, this should mean something to you. Because this one unique Poptropican we are giving away belongs to none other than former PHB friend and author Grumpy Wolf.

As mentioned above, the competition is now over! Please keep in mind that WordPress comments are a little messed up, so future comments may end up being posted above a past comment instead of below, etc. However, we have eliminated the unnecessary spam, and the 100th non-spam comment/winner of Grumpy Wolf’s account goes to…

Ocean Clover ♣

Congratulations! Grumpy Wolf’s Poptropica account details will be sent to you within the next few days. Please check your e-mail and reply when the message comes. 😉

As we mentioned, the comments may be slightly rearranged accidentally as more comments continue to roll in, and there is nothing we can do about it (it’s a WordPress glitch; you could say this could be a luck factor of the contest) – so this is image proof to ensure that Ocean Clover ♣ is the rightful winner:

Important:
Please consider the following points if you wish to participate!

  • GW’s username is Wolf811.
  • Grumpy Wolf’s password will be sent to the winner’s e-mail address, so when typing your comment in, please make sure the “e-mail” field is filled in with a working e-mail which will accept messages from [email protected].
  • The winner must reply the PHB’s e-mail within a week to let us know that they have successfully received the account. If not, the prize will be sent to the person who wrote the comment following after the 100th.
  • Spam comments will be deleted without warning, so the prize goes to the 100th non-spam comment. Spammers will be disqualified. Reply comments do not count towards the ‘100’.

Good luck, guys! Happy 3 million!

Also, there’s a new PCB post from Vlad the Viking, with a sneak peek for a special surprise coming soon to the Poptropica Store! They’re calling it a “micro-quest”, so it sounds like a little mission, and it seems that Dr. Hare is involved: despite already appearing on both 24 Carrot and Reality TV Islands. xD

Blog Post Title: New Micro-Quest coming soon to the Poptropica Store!
Description: It seems that a certain character is up to his old tricks again. I can’t say I wish that he would stop it, because stopping him will be so much fun! Keep ever watchful, because this new micro-quest will be coming soon to the Poptropica store!

Based on Vlad’s words, it sounds like he enjoys acting as a superhero and stopping evil villains from misdeeds. And he knows that we do, too. 😀
