Sneak Peeks, Super Villain Island

Of course, add in the Crawfish.

Guess what guys? Captain Crawfish IS officially returning to Poptropica, along with Dr. Hare and the Black Widow.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water: A pirate can’t sit around blogging all day, you know.

Another villain to add to the banner thing, and another character our Poptropicans need to worry about. -_-

Which, of course, also means we look to the right again to see who’s possibly up next. And I see this thing.

That reminds me of the swordy… um… contraption… um… mechasuit…. thing the Binary Bard used during the final battle in Astro-Knights. It seems from this clue, that that battle won’t be so final.

Blurry pictures FTW!

So Captain Crawfish had been officially announced, and the Binary Bard could be next in line. So not one nor two nor three returning villians aren’t enough, it seems. What in Poptropica is going to happen with at least 4 villians being involved??

BT out!

Sneak Peeks

The Rabbit and the Spider

Okay, first, the spider. Remember the Art Attack daily pop? Well it turns out that Black Widow IS returning to Poptropica.

Web of Deceit: Now things get interesting. ~ Black Widow

Last week, Dr Hare was revealed to be coming back. Earlier, for fun, I put the pics next to each other, and they actually fit together like a jigsaw puzzle! o.o

See what I mean? What in Poptropica are these two up to? Are there more past villains involved in this dastardly plot? Only time will tell.

Lunar Colony Island, Sneak Peeks

Countdown to the birth of an island!

Excitedly waiting for Lunar Colony? Well, you are in luck! 😀

Lunar Colony will be out on August 16!

Non-members can play on September 6! 😀

(Thanks ND for the pic.)

The Creators also have a post for us! 😀

We’re in the earliest stages of planning a new Island – one that is still still months away from becoming reality. All we’ve got so far is an idea, and the pile of sketches you see above. Hard to believe, but one day this simple black and white schematic will become a full-blown Poptropica Island!

*sniff* They grow up so fast…  ~ Captain Crawfish

Interesting design! What I see from this is writing on the top saying Video Game. Places we can tell from here are the Wharf, Chinatown, Subway, and Brownstones. There also seems to be a list of items. I see cellphone, wallet, and shopping list. Hmm. What are your ideas on this idea? 😛

EDIT: Fuzzy-B shared his take on the new sneak peek:

The top looks kinda like it says “Video Game Survivalist” which is kinda interesting seeing that Brownstones leads to a bunker. Also the item list looks like: Address and Phone Number, Shopping List, Batteries, Empty Smoothie Cup, Cell Phone, Wallet ID and Subway Pass, Manifest, Car Keys. This seems like big city themed island with a subway and a Chinatown, but the bunker is interesting, I wonder why you would need one. Perhaps this is related to the return of Dr. Hare..?

It’s that time of year again! So I might be inactive for a spell.

Have a great rest of summer! Enjoy it while you can 🙂

Here we go again…

vil·lain [viluhn] (noun) 1. a cruelly malicious person who is involved in or devoted to wickedness or crime; scoundrel. 2. a character in a play, novel, or the like, who constitutes an important evil agency in the plot.

Ah, those Poptropican villains. We love ’em. We hate ’em. We love to hate ’em. We hate to love ’em. On the Creator’s Blog, a teaser had been posted featuring a very familiar bunny.

Uh oh. This can’t be good…

Ah, Dr. Hare, Dr. Hare… you just wouldn’t give up, would you? First, you attempted to kidnap kids to use them to construct the Rabbot, then conquer the world. And players stopped you. Then you made a secret lab to try and do the same thing all over again, this time with grown-up grunts, although we never saw your face. And wait for it… players stopped you. Now, you’re somehow involved with another evil scheme… but what is going on this time? Only time will tell.

Also, I’m also concerned about this Daily Pop as well. I won’t say why for sure, ’cause it sounds far-fetched, but it concerns me.

(Fishy: As PHB reader Aang points out, it looks similar to the museum on Counterfeit Island, and could the Black Widow be back for some vandalism, even on a painting like Water Lilies? The Scream didn’t stop her! Also, Shaggy Tornado‘s theory with Dr. Hare is that he may return in Lunar Colony after being left for dead in space. What do you think? :P)

So I don’t think there’s much more to say. It has been confirmed that Dr. Hare is returning (again). But what else is being hidden?

Hey guys, BT here. Now you MIGHT be wondering…

“Why the heck did she include a song from a 1970’s movie in this post?”

Well, that 1970’s movie just turns out to be Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. In 2005, a remake directed by Tim Burton was seen by many. And maybe in 2012, Poptropica decided to revamp the story to make it an interactive experience?

Squirrely: We don’t imagine there’s a moose anywhere around here.
Fruity: The juice is loose!
Ramshackle: Life among the underclass.
Oh, Fudge: Who is this great big greedy nincompoop?

There could be more Daily Pops relating to this, but those were the ones that stood out to me as Wonka-related. And the most obvious ones, at that. I wonder if this island’s quest would have to do with rescuing the 4 kids that ended up in tight situations (I’m talking about Augustus, Violet, Veruca, and Mike). Besides, I don’t remember the part in either movie where Augustus is seen on a conveyor belt covered in strawberry-flavored chocolate coated fudge, because it wasn’t in the movie.

I could be right. I could be wrong. It’s a prediction, and we’ll have to see. In the meantime, we wait for Lunar Colony’s release for members and demo for non-members. And the members get to have those special gold cards.

The Alien Archaeology card leaves a pretty tall pillar scripted with a peculiar alien language. And by alien, I mean outer space alien. The moon rocks card creates random moon rocks scattering across your screen. And the costume is-well-a costume.

The release of these island-specific gold cards give us the hint that Lunar Colony will be available soon, but not exactly when. We’ll find out soon, won’t we?
