Limited Edition Robin Hood! And a mask…

Golden Eagle

Golden Eagle popping in from a school day. Homework, check. Read a chapter of my book, check.  Study for quiz…QUIZ? Oh yeah, check. 😀

Anyway, there has been a new costume reported in the Poptropica Store. It’s another LE one (Limited Edition). This time its Robin Hood, and it comes in two colors, a first for the LE costumes.

For the post:

Attention Protectors of Sherwood Forest!

The wardrobe for the Nottingham legend has expanded! Limited supply of fabrics or the new styles has caused a shortage of costumes to distribute, so grab yours while you can!

  Vlad The Viking

Since that picture from the Creators Blog shows the black version, I’ll show the white version.

This LE costume also seems to have a Limited Number ticket onto it. Noo!!!

Not BUYERS IMPULSE!!! *faints*

I also went to a Multiverse room today, and was I lucky! I got to meet one of the Creators, Hazmat Hermit! 😀

In the picture you can see Hazmat Hermit, of course. You can also see Shaggy Tornado (who visited the party as Tall Ice), me, Deathstalker (there as Big Bird, in the corner of the picture) and Serious Fox (Blue Ring in this picture). She’s been wanting this for a while, so I’ll give it to her. Visit her Poptropica Blog here.

I also took some other pictures with the other people at the party (I had a little trouble….).

You can see me, Shaggy Tornado, Moody Skull, Golden Butterfly (also known as Maroon Fire), Cool Fly, Eddie305, Rolling Moon, and Serious Fox’s main account.

The mask Cool Fly has may be a Lego Bionicle mask (according to Deathstalker, and I’ll believe him because it looks like he knows what he’s talking about most of the time). Or, some people say it came from the limited number Golden Pop Star outfit, which is no longer on sale.

Anyway, I’m out.

Peace!

RAWR! Poptropica Homepage Edits!

Smockers

UPDATE: Thanks to Blue Robot, we now know a 4th creator and their username! Justin Lacy is confirmed to be Hazmat Hermit! Click this link to see PROOF. For more details and speculation of the “who’s who” mystery of the Poptropica Creators, you can check out the post under this one by Gazek and this thread by ÐéåᶵҤșɫΔᶩҝƩƦ.

Not much real exciting news in the world of Poptropica! However, there is a new advertisement in between locations. It’s for the new PBS Kids show Dinosaur Train. It is (from a quick look at Wikipedia) created by Craig Bartlett who also made the television series Hey Arnold!, a show that I loved. 😀 It premieres September 7th. Check it out!

Sorry, there’s no sound. =( Also, this ad only shows up for 6-8 year-olds. So, if you want to see this in Poptropica and you’re older, just create a new account.

Next, there have been some minor edits to the Poptropica website itself.  As you know, the avatar studio was recently unveiled, and the creators added a button for it.

Just wave to the camera, Raymond! ;D
Just wave to the camera, Raymond! =D

Also, the little yellow button/spiky balloon thing that was next to Astro Knights that provided a link to the trailer is gone! I suppose it wasn’t really new anymore. =P You can find it and other videos at this link: CLICK ME =D

We also have discovered a news site that gives more confirmation that RTV Island is still coming out! This article also details that there will be Poptropica books releasing soon, too! Cool! It also details that Poptropica has (at the time the article was written) made it to the list of the 300 top viewed websites! Be sure to read this whole article below:

This next article also gives some neat achievements Poptropica has managed to achieve. DId you know that more than 120 MILLION characters have been created on the website? THAT’S OVER 9000! They also periodically get 7.5 million kids visiting their site a month. They all come from over 70 different countries! Did you know that Poptropica even comes in over 90 different languages to accommodate all of those visitors from all of those countries? Awesome! Article:

Wow. Looking back on Poptropica, I have to say it has come a long way. From day one, it has continued to entertain and impress many with its engaging islands to play and more ways to hang with your buddies than you can imagine. All I have to say is… THREE CHEERS FOR POPTROPICA! YAY!

Also, please do not forget to check out the posts below! Get in the know about the new devilish and angelic costumes in the Poptropica store, the newly released Avatar Studio, and the name change of your favorite Poptropican! Hope you all have a cookie-filled, Poptropicariffic day! ^_^

Dr.Hare’s New Costumes!

Gazek

Poptropica’s Been Costume CRAZY! They’ve been adding costumes, one by one! And first up, before you start wondering why on poptropica I’m {Gazek} posting 2 posts in a row, let’s just say it’s only because everyone else seems to be busy today. 😛

Poptropica’s Released 3 new costumes, The Limited Number Pop Star {Which The PHB was a little late to inform on}, The Little Demon Costume {Little Demon?} and the Angel Costume. The Limited Number Pop Star Was basically a Golden Version of the Pop Star. What is surprising is that It Was called Limited Number, Instead of Limited Edition. It’s had the same format as a limited edition card, With the shiny golden card and the metal edging, except that It’s limited number. I’m pretty sure that this is because there’s only a limited number of them… And as of now, Poptropica is Permanently {Maybe Temporarily} out of stock. And, Now About the Little Demon… I should say it’s a kind of funky name. It has a Super-Duper-Blood~Red-Killer Pitch Fork {At least that’s What I think it’s called} and a freaky red mask. Just Strange. He’s Also got the tail of A devil, and black wings, horns… God. When You press space Bar, The “Little Demon” Lifts up his Pitch Fork, And twirls it around, similar to the Karate Master. The Angel Is similar to what you would think of an Angel: With A Golden Halo, White Robes, White Wings.. And a harp. It’s space bar action is not that much… It’s just the angels wing flapping.. Kind of Useless, Eh?

And, Some of you might be wondering why I’ve put the Subject as Dr.Hare’s New Costumes. Simple; It’s because Deathstalker has discovered that Jordan Leary is Dr. Hare! A post about Jordan Leary was already made before, but at that time no one knew which Creator Jordan was. Jordan’s symbol is a cracked egg, {KEWL!} and he’s an animator and a designer. He REALLY is cool! Now we Know The Identity of 4 Creators:

Dr.Hare is Jordan Leary

Shark Boy is Nate Greenwall

Comic Kid is Jeff Kinney

Hazmat Hermit is Justin Lacy

UPDATE: We’ve found out Hazmat Hermit’s identity, thanks to Blue Robot! Read Smockers’ above post for more information. (Justin’s username is justinlacy!)

And, My Gravatar Problem is OVER! I’ve updated it to a cute little chibi, with the word gazek on it. Like it? It seems motion and GE have updated their gravatars to non-poptropica gravatars also! Cool, isn’t It?

Anyway, I’m out of Paper, (Quote Taken From Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw)

So I guess It’s time for Gazek to leave. Adios.

Lookin’ for An AVATAR?

Well, Gazek Speaking Here, And I’ve Got news, BIG TIME news! I know that you’re already loaded up from ST Hijuyo’s name change, but read on!

Poptropica has released a new thing called the Poptropica Avatar Studio, And It is COOL! For all of you people who are bashing their keyboards on the floor ’cause your not able to take screenshots of your poptropican, (Quote Taken From Crazy Flyer) The Avatar Studio is for You! Thanks To BuizelON, a member of the PHF for this update. The Avatar Studio is amazing, all you need to do is type in your username, and poptropica will show your poptropican.  Then you start cropping, and you can either type in the dimensions, or draw the selector around the place you want to crop.  Then you have an option of zooming in. At the bottom there’s an embed code used for putting this on your website or blog, and then a direct link, and then a button that allows you to save it on your computer. You can also use this for your wordpress gravatar. But this also means that motionman95’s Image generator has competition! As for me, I think that the Image generator is better, poptropica could have added a few more a features, ;). Check out the snapshot below, It shows you most of the Details.

And Speaking Of Avatars and Gravatars, I had a Pretty bad experience with my wordpress gravatar. I was changing my gravatar to a new one, And something TERRIBLE happened. My wordpress gravatar changed all right, but into some wierd gravatar!!! Check out the widget in the sidebar, and see my gravatar. Horrible, eh? Well, hopefully I’ll be able to do something about this and this problem will soon be over.

Signing Off,

Gazek.

Hey guys, Scary Tomato posting:

You probably know me as Scary Tomato, or ST. But like how Gazek was once Speedy Ice, I’ve also decided to change my internet name into something that might be easier to remember. You can still call me ST (many are used to it anyway 😛 ), but I’ll be changing my display name around this website too. Please try to refer to me with this name in the future:

Hijuyo

So, “hi” comes from the greeting word hi; “Ju” and “Yo” come from parts of certain names. [Original paragraph rewritten for personal reasons..] I know, the name change may take some getting used to. I wanted something that wasn’t a generic Poptropica name that some other Poptropican might also have.

Already using this name for other sites, such as Webosaurs and the new PHF.

Also, the International Blog of Poptropica (IBOP: http://theibop.wordpress.com/) has discovered a new item coming to the Poptropica Store. It’s called the ”Follower” and looks like this:

follower

A slight mistake, Creators – ”funner” is not good grammar. 🙂 Also, this isn’t a fake; you can check out the item SWF here: http://static.poptropica.com/items/item3051.swf. Wonder what’s going to follow us? Non-player characters (NPCs) like the mayor from 24 Carrot, or randomly generated pets like kittens? 😀
