Don’t get mad, Mr. Glove.

“Hello, sir. I hope you’re not feeling mad at anybody today,” laughed Vlad the Viking as he stepped into the Hair Club of Spy Island. He’d found another new friend to make as usual.

“Good day, Vlad! Nope, that’s just my name: Mad Glove. Would you like to go out to the BAD Bistro for lunch after a quick game of Soupwords?” replied the spiky, orange-haired boy standing near the entrance of the building. He put his hand to his chin, as if he were about to challenge Vlad to a game. This would make a great picture!, thought the Viking, as he raised his camera. FLASH! Vlad laughed again as he tucked his new photo into an album, to put into his blog later.

“Cool camera,” commented Mad Glove. “Thanks,” replied Vlad, “And yes, I’d love to go to the bistro with you. Spaghetti for the win!” 

When Vlad got back home, he took out the photo he’d taken of his new friend and smiled. Then he booted up his computer and typed in a new entry into his blog:

In this installment of Snapshot Sagas, I went on a trip to the Hair Club on Spy Island. While wandering around near the entrance I met another great Poptropican named Mad Glove! Congratulations Mad Glove, you are the newest Poptropican featured on Snapshot Sagas!

Keep watching for my viking hat and beard, you may be the next Poptropican featured on Snapshot Sagas!

And that ends another Snapshot Saga with Vlad the Viking. Remember to check out thy King’s announcement below, too.

And in honor of Earth Day, Poptropica’s Creators have designed a wonderful poster that encourages us to protect the planet! There goes the AK Island rocket, zooming round Earth!

Astro-Knights Island, Snapshot Series, Sneak Peeks

Snapshot Sagas – Tiny Crown

After many long trips its nice just to sit down, relax, and watch a movie in 24 Carrots movie theater about killer carrots!
Not only that but you can make great friends while watching a movie. Check out who Vlad the Viking ran into.

While eating popcorn and bubblegum in the 24 Carrot Island movie theater, I ran into a friendly Poptropican named Tiny Crown. Congratulations Tiny Crown, you are the newest Poptropican featured in Snapshot Sagas!

Keep watching for my viking beard and helmet, the next Poptropican featured in Snapshot Sagas could be you!

Holy Cow!

Trust me, it has nothing to do with cows, but it might have something to do with castles.
That’s right PCB has released yet another sneak peek on the long awaited Astro-Knights island. This time Comic Kid ran into a bit of a mess as he stared up at a castle in ruins.

Is it falling apart like your great grandmother Lucy?
Did aliens take a detour and accidentally crash into the over sized castle?
Or was it just a strange cow that stumbled into the castle?

Well our guess is that it was a pair of aliens that crashed into to the castle.

They were obviously making crop circles when they were distracted by great grandmother Lucy who came out and told them off for ruining her crops. They then flew off in a hurry and spotted a cow grazing below, they forgot where they were going and crashed into the castle.

Here’s our proof: mystery_island

There is a small problem, though. Vince Graves and Medicine Man sure looks upset! Let’s just hope they don’t go seeking revenge… maybe we should go read a Goosebumps book instead…

Ready for some Goosebumps? Take the blimp to any of the 8 islands and run to the right edge of Main Street, and you should find something like this:

Criminal in the Final?

Ladies and jellybeans,
Tables and chairs.
Cross-eyed mosquitoes
And bald-headed bears!

I welcome thy Poptropicans to take a quick vote for…

Popularity Contest #6: The Final Round!

Before we get to that, let’s take a look at #5’s contestants: Poptropica’s criminals!

D, otherwise known as Vince Graves of Giza 1, Nabooti Island, received 63% of the votes and was declared the winner. Now we see that he has moved onto the finals, along with all the others that were voted for…

I guess it doesn’t pay to lead a life of crime, Vince, because C, a handsome agent at Spy Island’s Headquarters is winning by far, claiming 57% of all votes! Wow! It also proves how popular Nabooti Island is – 2 of its characters are in the Finals! This poll isn’t over yet, though: there’s still a chance for the others to win!

To make things better, the winner of the Finals gets a T-shirt design made of them, the Poptropica Creators say. They will probably be sold on Poptropica’s online Zazzle.com store, “T-shirts & More”!
