Store

Flowers for Sale!

AW

Well, maybe not flowers for sale, but the Flower Power certainly is. Again, it’s another attempt at the Creators to get people to buy costumes without them actually making a new one. I actually like the Flower Power, because it doubles as both a costume and a gold card.

Remember, with the flower power, you have a bright costume and the ability to make Poptropica your own personal garden.

Here is a picture from when they first released the item, on May 7, 2010.

So, if you don’t have this item, go out and get it! No pressure. 🙂

Bonus Items, LEGO Poptropica

DrHare5000 Promo Code: Dr. Hare’s Deluxe Balloons

Slanted Fish

Dr. Hare Deluxe BalloonsDr. Hare’s been hyping about this for long enough… and it’s paid off because the halfway goal of 5,000 supporters for Poptropica’s LEGO CUUSOO project has finally been achieved!

As promised, the balloons are here – just enter the promo code DRHARE5000 when you log in or visit the Store to receive the Dr. Hare Deluxe Balloons, featuring Evil Chubby Bunny With Bucktooth and Evil Bunny Drone Face Insignia.

Now now, our favorite evil bunny has made it very clear that it would be extremely shameful if those not worthy of this glorious inflatable prize dared to claim it, so for the sake of good ethics, if you HAVEN’T voted yet and you want these balloons, go support it now. If you’re under 13, get an adult to vote for you. I mean, you COULD just skip this step and get the balloons, but… for shame, for shame. *shakes head slowly*

The LEGO CUUSOO Team also posted this comment on the project idea page:

2013.04.10

Hi PopCreators,

Congratulations on passing the halfway point on LEGO CUUSOO with your Poptropica: Dr. Hare’s Lair project! Your project and concept models are focused and well-built. It’s not hard to imagine this as an official LEGO product. All in all, great presentation.

Best wishes as you reach for 10,000 supporters on LEGO CUUSOO.

Yay! Halfway there!

In other news, Poptropica’s Official Tips & Tricks App now has a walkthrough guide for Night Watch. However, this being a site that is partially based on creating Poptropica walkthroughs, it has to be said that the PHB has a Night Watch Island Guide as well, so… you know where to go!

A Creator’s Tribute?

AW

In the U.S., it’s been announced that the United States Postal Service is going to quit delivering on Saturdays to save money. It seems the Creators have a response for that; they have a response for everything.

Notice that on the lockers, there are names of Creators, like Ashley Lange, Nasan Hardcastle, Jennifer Wood, Christopher Barney…

This could also double as a cameo for Virus Hunter Island. See “Test Subjects Wanted” on the bulletin board.

“See what happens without Saturday delivery?”

Clever.

That’s all I wanted to share today, so I’ll see you next time!

New Islands, PHB Sneak Peeks, Virus Hunter Island

PHB Sneak Peeks: Up next is… Virus Hunter Island!

Slanted Fish

Thanks to PHB reader Aang, we’ve got the name for our next Poptropica island – Virus Hunter Island! It turns out that Poptropica artist Nasan Hardcastle has posted pictures on his blog for characters he has designed, including this image below of what looks like characters for the next island:

EDIT: About a day after this PHB post, the image above was taken down. Looks like someone’s been checking up on us! But they can’t take back what we now know. ;D

(By the way, check out Nasan’s site, Soft-Shack, for more cool Poptropica artwork.) A Whois search for virushunterisland.com confirms that Poptropica has owned the domain since March 12, 2013, and it even re-directs to Poptropica. Hmmm…

You may remember or have noticed the Daily Pop sneak peeks featuring Poptropicans exploring the human body’s interior, which shows us that the next island, Virus Hunter, will involve exploring a Poptropican’s insides. Plus, from the characters above, we can see it has something to do with a gym. Cardio exercise time!

Now… what about Dr. Lange? (First of all, is she named after Poptropica designer Ashley Lange? Creators’ inside joke, perhaps?) Silver Wolf and BT think she may be a suspicious character (evidently, red goggles + lab coat = PURE EVIL). But who knows?

So… Virus Hunter Island! Get excited like an electron in an excited state! (*ahem* chemistry joke) Stay tuned to the PHB for more updates!

Also, I really do have to apologize for my “mini-vacation.” I’ve just been so busy with tests and projects, and then state tests, AP exams, and finals are coming up in the following days and it’s getting so hectic! I can still post, but just barely. 😉

Also, if you haven’t noticed, our Back Lot Island page has just been newly updated with our guide, kindly written by Samwow5, skyboy303, Zippy Turtle, and edited by Slanted Fish! Also, some trivia has been added, not all of them, but a few of the little movie tidbits that you can find! If you can find more, just comment on this post or the BL Island page!

That’s all for me today. Have a great weekend! 😀

AND CUT! THATS A WRAP!
