Wihi folks!

Yes, I am back at it again with the white vans another Top Five post. This time is focusing a bit on some awesome connections in Poptropica that you more than likely aren’t aware of. Let’s begin!

5. The Costumizer Shirt is wearable… kinda.

The newer (yet still rare) original Rock Star costume had a green shirt, yellow star, and just overall looks incredibly similar to the shirt on the (updated) Costumizer button, and leads me to believe it is intentionally the same one.

4. The Green Hawk

This costume from Masks & Capes on Super Power Island actually belongs to a superhero, the Green Hawk! The Green Hawk comes from one of the Poptropica toys. Also, I totally wore that outfit ironically at PoptropiCon, heh…

ironically.

3. Factual, Furry Monsters

Before Time Tangled became a SUI, most areas had these bubbles for an iconic creature called the Fact Monster, which when clicked would offer factual information related to the area. Although there was never an official Fact Monster character in-game, this costume was leaked around the time Monster Carnival was rumored to come out (before 24 Carrot).

However, as we know, the leaked monster parts were recycled onto a series of monster costumes.  Now that’s a good way to make your hard work not go to waste!

2. Doctor… who?

Doctor SmartyPants – seen on a poster in PoptropiCon – feels almost too similar to our kid-testing doctor in the beloved Poptropica parody island, Mocktropica. Everyone seems to be a parody of someone in that island, so it makes sense the doctor would be as well. Despite the two being of different genders, I do feel this is super awesome if I’m right. 😀

Now it’s time for one connection you wouldn’t believe. We all know the gods of Poptropica only appeared in-game during and after Mythology Island… but what if I told you one god was there from the beginning?

1. Apollo statues

On Time Tangled, an Apollo statue appears in Ancient Greece. Well, it doesn’t say Apollo, but if you click on it, it does. The pose also references an iconic real-life classical Greek sculpture known as Apollo Belvedere, with one obvious difference: the Poptropican version is clothed.

Three years apart from each other, with no consistent storyline by any means, the same character appears again as a statue – on Mythology Island.

Yeh, I know it isn’t as drastic as if Myron Van Buren had first appeared on Early Poptropica (which did not happen), and this Apollo connection is just a popular Greek mythological character who incidentally had a minor role in two islands, but it is super cool… and a connection I doubt you knew. 😛

Wowie Spencey, two Top Five posts in a week, how good do you feel?

Amazing.

Well, until next post comes around!

Wibi!

Hey folks, Cobalt here!

Poptropicanos, I’ve hopped on my blimp and traveled to the PHC (that’s our Poptropica Help Chat hangout) and beyond for answers… to ask the Poptropica community if they could have any item in Poptropica that doesn’t currently exist, what would it be?

I got some awesome answers, answers that I mostly agreed with, and I decided to compile my favorites right here in a top five list! Here we go!

#5: Boomerang

How awesome would it be to have an item that could knock other things down for you, and immediately come back to your Poptropicano? Sure, you can do something like this with the Realms hammer, but what about one for the rest of Poptropica?

Awesome idea, Draco! 😀

#4: Teleporter

Now trust me, this idea is awesome. Sometimes, walking from place to place just takes way too long, and we’re forced to pass through ads along the way. Islands like Arabian Nights, I would teleport happily. Ad teleporters are cool too, and have been known to exist if you know where to look (though we don’t want them getting patched!).

Regardless, it’s a lovely idea, and at certain times on an island’s quest, I only have to agree. Thanks for the idea, TechWizard! 🙂

#3: Shoes

We’ve all seen the booted bandit, and we’ve all seen how spiffy footwear can look on a Poptropican. While big ones like that may look goofy, an optional shoe feature would be pretty sick. Great thought, SHSLDespair! 😉

#2: Skateboard

This is actually my thought, but a skateboard. It wouldn’t really get in the way of speed, it could be the same pace as walking for all I care, but we need a skateboard, man! You press spacebar and it goes back into your hand. Now, while skateboards do exist, (ex. the teen in Early Poptropica), they aren’t functional for you or anybody else. Change that. Change that right now. 😡

No, I’m just kidding. Though, any kind of travel would be cool in my opinion. 

Here is my absolute favorite that I got, from our own HPuterpop. I was planning on putting this in a top five wanted game features post though to be fair, he interpreted it as an item card, and considering I had the same exact thought, I just had to put it in.

#1: Eye Changing Emotion Card

You mean no more ASG-ing for a specific eye emotion? Or glitching over it in general? Being able to display your eyes’ emotion besides the default actions in common rooms? Only sounds reasonable and logical, I can’t see that happening. 😉

I definitely think all these picks are worth having in-game, what do you think? What’s an item you want in-game? Taco bout it below! 😛

Hey folks, Cobalt here!

Today, I’ll be counting down the top five most extraordinary, poppin’ customizable items in the fascinating world of Poptropica! Before we start, I’d like to add a disclaimer: These are all just my opinion.

Of course, there are also really cool items that aren’t customizable, but considering not everyone enjoys glitching, I feel it’s safer to go focus on customizables. But if popular demand demands a glitch based version of this, I’m definitely up for it. In the meantime, our ASG page does have lots of glitchable outfits.

Anyway, without further ado… here are my top five favorite extraordinary costume pieces on Poptropica!

#5 Dr. Hare’s Secret Lair: The Customizable Beard

Besides Cryptids, this is the only costumizable beard in Poptropica, and it looks super awesome. It also kind of looks like the Bat Man logo. Regardless, a cool item, and definitely deserves to be on this list!

#4 S.O.S. Island: The Money Hat

Honestly dudes, this hat is totally cash. I actually really like it a lot, and it’s free of charge, ironically. 😉

#3 Haunted House: The Witch Nose

Not only is it the only actual customizable nose in Poptropica (besides the goofy glasses, or fake noses from the Store), it also looks super cool around Halloween, and is constantly used in costume contests here on the PHB! Try dying your skin green and wearing it. Spooky! 😉

#2 PoptropiCon Episode 1: Cyclops Night Vision Goggles

This gives me really awesome sci-fi vibes. I’m a huge fan either these as laser goggles, night vision goggles, whatever the heck they are! They are definitely a sight for sore eyes. 😉

#1 Mythology Island: The Minotaur Outfit

This looks like something you just shouldn’t be able to customize. The fact it is customizable amazes me, and I really like minotaurs! Dye yourself white, black, brown, whatever – it looks beast! 😉

That concludes my opinions on the top five best customizable items! Do you agree with me? What are your favorite customizable items? Comment below! 😛

Until next time Poptropicanos!

Hey Poptropicans, it’s Blake, and… I have some bad news.

It’s been a long time coming, but I believe now it’s finally time for me to make this announcement. Poptropicans, as much as I hate to say this, it’s time for me to move on. I’ve grown up. I’ve lost interest. People always do at some time. But I’m proud to have had the opportunity to grow alongside you, every step of the way. We’ve been together for almost 3 years now, can you believe it?

I’d like to take the time to acknowledge everyone who’s helped me along the way. Anyway, here goes the hard part…

To Fishy, HP, Sam, the entire lot of you.. thanks for being my family.

To the fans, thank you for being there with me, no matter what happens. You are all as much of a part of the PHB as I am.

Well, it looks like we don’t have that much longer left together.. I thank you all for reading my posts these past few years.

And for what it’s worth, I hope you’ve enjoyed the ride.

Who knows, maybe I’ll be back one day to grace your screens once more.

But for now, this is Blake, signing off for the last time.

And as always….

…Stay popping, Poptropicans.
