When You Wish Upon A Star

When you wish upon a star,
Makes no difference who you are,
Anything your heart desires,
Will come to you.

Yes, last night Codien saw a shooting star and wished for his PHB Sneak Peak to come true. Look what happened.

Poptropica have released yet another advertisement from…Disney (I’m a little worried about Disney’s presence right now but we still get awesome advertisements from them.)

Celebrating the 70th anniversary of Disney’s Pinocchio.

Inside the building is a quiz game, a synopsis of the movie, a video of its 70th anniversary, and of course a Pinocchio costume and a Fairy Godmother Costume.

Note: A lot of you have been saying you can’t see the advertisement. This is because it is only for Poptropican’s with an age between 9-11. So if you can’t see the Pinocchio Building its is because your age is to high. Simply make a new user to view the advertisement or go into multiplayer rooms, there are bound to be people with the costume in there.

You can visit the official site for Pinocchio here:  http://adisney.go.com/disneyvideos/animatedfilms/pinocchio/

PHB Sneak Peaks: The Little Wooden Boy

March 8th, 2009 #7

[-!CLASSIFIED!-]


-Poptropica Help Blog Sneak Peaks-

Welcome to another wonderful week of ‘Poptropica Help Blog Sneak Peaks’. These posts are posted every week on Sundays. In every new post there will be stories that only we have. And only we post them. These stories are classified and are very secret.
This week’s story is ”The Little Wooden Boy”, It is about a puppet that wants to become a boy.

-The Little Wooden Boy-
I’m not a puppet, I’m a real boy.

Geppetto, a poor old wood carver, was making a puppet from a tree branch. “You shall be my little

boy,” he said to the puppet, “and I shall call you ‘Pinocchio’.” He worked for hours, carefully carving each detail. When he reached the mouth, the puppet started making faces at Geppetto. “Stop that, you naughty boy,” Geppetto scolded, “Stop that at once !” “I won’t stop !” cried Pinocchio.
“You can talk !” exclaimed Geppetto.

“Of course I can, silly,” said the puppet. “You’ve given me a mouth to talk with.” Pinocchio rose to his feet and danced on the table top. “Look what I can do !” he squealed.

“Pinocchio, this is not the time to dance,” Geppetto explained. “You must get a good night’s rest. Tomorrow you will start going to school with the real boys. You will learn many things, including how to behave.”

On his way to school the next morning, Pinocchio stopped to see a puppet show. “I can dance and sing better than those puppets and I don’t need strings,” boasted Pinocchio. He climbed onto the stage.

“Get off my stage,” roared the Puppet Master. Then he noticed how much the crowd liked Pinocchio. He did not say anything and let Pinocchio stay. “Here, you’ve earned five copper coins,” the Puppet Master told Pinocchio.

"Every time you tell a lie, your nose will grow. When you tell the truth, it will shrink."
"Every time you tell a lie, your nose will grow. When you tell the truth, it will shrink."

“Take these coins and go straight home,” said the Puppet Master. Pinocchio put the coins into his sack.

He did not go very far before he met a lame Fox and a blind Cat. Knowing that Pinocchio had money, they pretended to be his friends. “Come with us. We’ll teach you how to turn those copper pieces into gold,” coaxed the sneaky Cat.

“We want to help you get rich. Plant your coins under this magic tree. In a few hours they’ll turn to gold,” said the Fox.

“Show me where,” said Pinocchio excitedly. The Cat and Fox pointed to a patch of loose dirt. Pinocchio dug a hole and put the sack in it, marking the spot with a stone.

“Splendid !” exclaimed the Cat. “Now let’s go to the inn for supper.” After supper, the Fox and Cat, who weren’t really lame or blind, quickly snuck away and disguised themselves as thieves. They hid by the tree waiting for Pinocchio to come back and dig up the money. After Pinocchio dug up the coins they pounced on him.

“Give us your money!” they ordered. But Pinocchio held the sack between his teeth and resisted to give the sack to them. Again they demanded, “Give us your money !”

Pinocchio’s Guardian Fairy, who was dressed all in blue and had blue hair, sent her dog, Rufus, to chase the Fox and Cat away. She ordered Rufus to bring Pinocchio back to her castle. “Please sit down,” she told Pinocchio. Rufus kept one eye open to watch what was going on.

“Why didn’t you go to school today?” she asked Pinocchio in a sweet voice.

“I did,” answered Pinocchio. Just then, his nose shot out like a tree branch. “What’s happening to my nose?” he cried.

“Every time you tell a lie, your nose will grow. When you tell the truth, it will shrink,” said the Blue Fairy.

“Pinocchio, you can only become a real boy if you learn how to be brave, honest and generous.”

The Blue Fairy told Pinocchio to go home and not to stop for any reason. Pinocchio tried to remember what the Blue Fairy told him…

If you would like to read the rest of the story. Please go to this site. http://www.childrenstory.info/childrenstories/pinocchio.html
Its full of clasic children stories thay everyone will love.

 

Ahhh. You have to love classic children stories. And you’re going to love this even more when it comes to Poptropica.

Yes this lovable wooden puppet will be in an advertisement in Poptropica coming out in a month or two called (i’m guessing) Walt Disney’s Pinocchio.

You will be able to get the fairy godmother and the Pinocchio costume.

 

So that’s my Sneak Peaks this week. Next week will be a surprise. Maybe something that it is a little bit mummy like or something that is a little bit sneaky. See you next week.

A Very Red-Hot Planet

Cheerful Claw has found something…

The sight of the strange and distant landscape of a very red-hot planet on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog! Looks like volcanoes to me, the Poptropican thinks. Blog picture below:

Again, here’s a reminder of how you should post around the PHB. Please take the time to read this!

You are not required to type in perfect spelling/grammar. You may use abbreviations such as “u” for you, or misspell a few words if you can’t find the right spelling, such as “spasifik” instead of “specific”. However, you need to keep your comments readable.

If you find that you or someone else used the wrong spelling or grammar for a word, phrase, or sentence, even though you/they didn’t want to, please don’t comment to correct the person. It’s not necessary. It will only waste comment space (there’s no limit, but it’s better to keep it neat), people will get off-topic to have a big discussion about it, and if you knew what they were trying to say enough to want to correct them, we’re sure everybody else will understand it too. So, please don’t  comment that way.

Also, when someone tells about a new post on the Poptropica Creators’ Blog, it’s not an invitation for everyone to start discussing it. The PHB will eventually post about the Creators’ new post, and when we do, that would be the time to talk about it. Not on the older posts, because it’s considered off-topic there.

Thanks for understanding! 😉

Rockin’ Rock Stars and Rockets

We all know that the Creators have been working on some “super-special-and-secret” costumes lately… and a fresh new batch just came out today! Thank you Blue 6254! Rock stars may be coming to Poptropica…

Blog Post Title: More Outfits!
Description: Here are some more “super-special” outfits we are working on! Rock on!

On the left we have a female rock star with a wild hairstyle, colored pink and black. She’s also wearing a pink shirt, white pants, a black jacket with buttons, and holding a pink electric guitar. On the right is a male rock star, and his hairstyle is similar to the one on the right, but it’s still a bit different and the colors are black and white (how skunk-like!). 😛 He’s carrying a brown flying V guitar, and wearing a black jacket (without buttons), a green shirt with a yellow star, and black pants. Both the boy and the girl have cool sunglasses-like things over their eyes! 😀

Another new post on the Creators’ blog, and it looks like this one is for Astro-Knights! Thank you for the reminder, Neat Whale. Blog picture below:

Blog Post Title: Rocketing through space

It’s that Astro-Knights Island rocket again! It looks like we’ll be flying through space. Awesome! :mrgreen:

There’s some blue stuff coming out of the rocket. Wonder what that is? Feel free to comment about your thoughts on this sneak peek here!

Froot Loops Diving and More!

First off, there’s a Froot Loops advertisement building on Main Street (I think it’s for all islands but I’m not sure.) Inside it, you can play a diving game and if you win, you get a Diving Suit and a Treasure Chest! (Both items will only be here for a limited time, which means when the advertisements leave, so will these prizes.) Here’s a walkthrough video of how to get it:

The Froot LoopsTM Diving Suit, one of the prizes, is a clothing item you can wear, and you automatically blow some bubbles every few seconds when you wear it, which is really cool! The Froot LoopsTM Treasure Chest, which is the other prize, is a usable item. When used, it sprays Froot Loop cereal pieces everywhere and then cleans itself up. You can use it as many times as you like. 😀

Next, we’ve got another sneak peek of an island from the Poptropica Creators’ Blog. The image is called “Jungle1”, and the full-size image link is: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_AvKb4IREAik/SRRvcUkYElI/AAAAAAAAABY/qgvWBHiMufI/s1600-h/Jungle1.jpg. The blog post title is “What creature lurks in a mechanical jungle?”, so this is probably a mechanical jungle! 😯 I’m not sure what island this is of, but the description is: “A new island is in the works!” Perhaps Poptropica is working on another island? We’ll just have to wait and see! 😛

Here it is:

VladtheViking has added a new video on Poptropica YouTube! It’s a tour of all the islands on Poptropica, including sneak peeks of Big Nate and Nabooti Islands! It’s so awesome – watch it on YouTube (it’s called “Poptropica – Tour”) or here below:

And finally, we are proud to announce that this blog (Poptropica Help Blog) has reached 100,000 hits! Thanks everyone for visitng, and please continue to spread the word! Long live Scary Tomato’s Poptropica Help Blog! 🙂
