Bonus Items, Cryptids Island, Sneak Peeks

Replay Castle!

Slanted Fish

If you visit your inventory, you may notice that your island medallions have more than just the “Put On” button – a new “Replay Island” button was added to every medallion card! When you click on it, it will ask you to confirm whether you really do want to lose all your items and progress for the island.

Unfortunately, nothing happened when I clicked “Yes.” Maybe they’re working on it, but this could be a cool feature we can be looking forward to! (thanks, Blueshield)

Update: The Replay button is gone! 😮

Also, here’s a sneak peek of the next Poptropica island:

Not exactly the mightiest castle out there. What’s up with the bucket attached to a flagpole by roof? Construction of this fortress in the fog looks only half-finished. What do you think might be involved in this one?

According to reader Maximum Ride, the flag is Scotland’s. Could this have anything to do with the “French” island sneak peeks from before? Maybe we’re not just getting a France-like island, maybe it’s Europe-themed! Who knows. 😛

And dere aww coot and fuzzy! Da End

…….

I wish.

There’s a new Barbie *choking sound* Girls *gag* ad for girs (yes I had to make a girl account. The sacrifices I make for you guys…) Thanks to 101ab.boon for posting this on the PHF.  I found it on a 12 yr old account on Steamworks, Early Poptropica, Shark tooth, Time Tangled, 24 Carrot, Super Power. Comment if you find any other ages or islands!

Basically what you do is go inside the ad (obviously…) and talk to *choke* Barbie *gag* and she’ll explain her problem.

I thought her legs were abnormally long...?

After you overcome the horror of talking to a plastic owner of the highest pitched and most annoying voice in all reality she’ll tell you what’s up. Or down, or nowhere really…

Life in plastic: Not fantastic!

You help her choose a costume when you say “What choices do I have?” And you need to choose the coustume that *Cough* Barbie *choke* is describing. E.g. “I need a costume with a bit more of a buzz!” A bee. When you choose the right one she’ll give you a ‘Cat Costume” (So bad luck if you’re allergic to cats like me) You costumise that, and run to your right. Talk to the Secret Agent (who fails to reconise you as you director so remember to fire her later) and she’ll let you go into the party. Basically that’s that except you get to meet a few old friends! Do you reconise these two?

Having a Fang-tastic time with old friends... who forgot their punch?! :O

That’s all for me now,

Furry monster… carnival?

Slanted Fish
Just look at these guys!

Justly named Furry Monsters 1-4 (see above pic; 1-4 are in order left to right), these new [and so far, unannounced] releases to the Poptropica Store mean you can now get what used to be ultra-rare leaked costume parts (wings, horns, fur bodies) for only 75 credits per costume! Here’s what they say:

  • Furry Monster 1: “Monster is the new black.”
  • Furry Monster 2: “Don’t hate me because I’m spooky.”
  • Furry Monster 3: “Be a hit at the next monster bash!”
  • Furry Monster 4: “Guaranteed to shock and frighten!”

And apparently, the available furry monsters are actually different by your gender! So there’s actually more of a variety available, and the good news is, they’re all AWESOME!

Girl mon-STARS! xD
Monster madness for the boys!

These creatures resemble the leaked costumes of “Monster Carnival Island”, the unreleased island that appeared on the Poptropica Map in early 2008 and mysteriously never went live. (Instead, as older players may recall, it was replaced by 24 Carrot.) As far as the Creators are showing us, they probably won’t be releasing this Monster Carnival Island.

For reference: The Poptropica Help Blog has given away 13 of these epic monster-type costumes back when they were unobtainable. You can read all about our PHB 1 Million Monster Competition by clicking here.

So these monster costumes aren’t very rare any more, now that anyone can obtain them… but they’re still cool! Don’t you just love those critter bits? 😀

What do you think of being able to easily access what were once known as ultra-rare Poptropica clothing?

Ad building news according to Sunset1624: “There’s also a new ad for girls (I found it on my 12 year old account) called Barbie Girls Halloween Bash. You help Barbie pick out a good costume for the party, and when you pick out a costume she likes (it could be any) you get a cat costume for yourself and you get to go to the Halloween party. You can’t costumize any of the good costumes though. The only costumes you can costumize are the costumes of the same people from the Haunted House.”
