-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 ”Zoo Mascots”, its a follow up of the last story ‘Monkey Madness’, about the mysterious animals around Poptropica.

-Monkeying Around-
Give me a ‘Z’, give me an ‘O’, give me another ‘O’. What does that spell?

Wind was rushing past his face, chilling his spine and making his hairs stand on end. Codien was still flying in the stolen aeroplane that once belonged to the, now quite angry, Pilot of Nabooti.

Over the past hour Codien had flown past different landscapes, each flowing into the next. Large coal hills glinting with diamonds, large enough to be mountains. Gloomy trees surrounding an abandoned village. A spectacular waterfall creating a beautiful rainbow from the falling droplets of water. Codien finally decided to land his aircraft when he saw a familiar sign of a Safari Park.

He wasn’t going to land when he remembered he had seen enough animals, in one spot, to last a lifetime, and he was still trying to get the brown stains off his shirt. But he decided against it when he saw a strange man running around in circles shouting. Curious, Codien touched down the planes wheels and jumped out off his seat to see what the problem was.

When Codien got closer he relised it was Big Zeke, the guy from the brochure who owned the Safari, who was in a frenzy. Codien ran up to him and asked what on earth the problem was. Big Zeke told him about the strange animals he saw out in the wild, and when he went to take a picture he relised he left his camera behind. He had searched high and low and had not found it.

This was Codiens one chance to help this awesome Poptropican, Codien remembered he once got a camera from him. Out of his bag Codien produced a sleak digital camera. Offering to Big Zeke, he held it in awe and his eyes lit up. He span around and jumped into his truck. Codien quickly followed him and clambered into the back just in time before he sped off into the distance. Racing through the safari the passing trees were blurs. After a short trip, Zeke skidded to a halt behind some trees. In the distance Codien could here faint music. Zeke and Codien creeped closer, making there way closer to the noise. Closer, and closer they found themselves hidden behind an opening. The music was being played in the opening.

Peeping his head over Codien saw the strangest site. 4 animals were dancing, singing, crowing, and roaring to a stereo being played. Well at least codien thought they were animals. He noticed that two of them were just Poptropicans in costumes. Memorised by the groups routine, he worked out that they were rehearsing a dance piece. Before Codien could step out into the opening a tiny whisper from Zeke motioned him to come back to the truck.

When Codien entered the truck he found Big Zeke disappointed. Asking why he looked so down even though he got the picture, he told him that the mysterious animals were just a traveling group rehearsing for their show. He reached down below his chair and pulled out a poster showing the group advertising their show. Disappointed the two drove back to the plane and Codien found himself flying in the air again.

This is a sneak peak of either some new costumes fo a new island (I don’t know what one), or an advertisement. Its most likely these are from a new island coming out because Poptropica showed us the Lion outfit, and they don’t usually show advertisement costumes. But what island?
So these are the animals i promised. You can see the Lion from the Poptropica Creators Blog sneak peak. But their is also the rooster and a sheep, plus the monkey. Silly monkey. My favourite is the lion. Also the rooster outfit reminds me of Kelloggs character rooster.
Which one is your favourite?

Colors All Around Us, Maintenance Update

Slanted Fish

Colors all around us – there are so many different colors everywhere! The earth we are on is an amazing creation. 😀

The Poptropica Creators must have been thinking the same thing. Comic Kid, a Creator, posted an interesting sneak peek of a colorful shop with clown gear. Thanks Blue 6254 for the news! Blog picture below:

Blog Post Title: Clowning Around
Description: It never ceases to amaze me that no matter where I go, there always seems to be stores that sell just about anything you can think of.

This sneak peek looks like it’s showing a nice shop stocked with colored wigs, hats with flowers poking out, balloons, glasses, and more! Comic Kid even seems to be waving to us in that picture. However, I’m not sure which island this sneak peek is for… 😦

Looking on the colorful side, there’s a new poll – no, make that 2 – on the Creators’ Blog. Thanks Cheerful Claw! The first one says: “GIRLS ONLY! – What is your favorite color?” The options are pink, blue, black, purple, yellow, green, red, brown, and white. Pink is winning this one. Don’t feel left out, boys, there’s one for you guys too! Scroll down a little to see the second poll: “BOYS ONLY! – What is your favorite color?” The options are a bit different: black, white, orange, green, red, blue, purple, yellow, and brown. Blue is winning!

Also, Director Lion (Gentle Lion) would like everyone to know that there is an ad between places on some islands such as Early Poptropica called “The Big Apple”. Remember to take a look at the posts below for some interesting Poptropica updates!

Maintenance Update
Last night and this morning Poptropica was down for maintenance. Im guessing it was mostly behind the scenes update, more or less the finishing touches on Bignate island. 😛
But there was one thing that i managed to see.
Email Notification SignupPoptropica has replaced the Bignate email to Astro-Knights email. Whether it means Bignate is soon to be released or maybe it means Astro will be coming out sooner the we think.

-Poptropica Help Blog Sneak Peaks-

Welcome to another 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 weeks story is ‘The New Knights of Poptropica’, todays stories are all about the new island ‘Astro-Knights’.


-The New Knights of Poptropica-
They’re heroes just like you or me…But in shiny new armour.

Friday the 7th.  Just like any other day. But any other day was always a different day for Codien, encountering Pirates and strange dancing men in hats was just the usual-unusual thing.
Today as Codienwas walking to the ‘Hair Club’ to get his hair cut and re-curled, he almost tripped over as his eyes shifted to a giant object hidden behind one of the buildings. He forgot about his trip towards the Hair Club and found himself walking towards the massive shape. Getting closer to the object it became recognisable. Hiding behind the vast skyscrapers was a giant spaceship. It reminded him of the Space Buddies Spaceships but this one was silver with red and yellow stripes.
Codien edged closer to the spaceship only taking a tiny step towards the spaceship each second. It was only when he was a few meters away from the ships door when it shifted open with a strange hissing noise. From the blinding light pouring out of the opening, Out stepped two objects shrouded by light. Slowly floating closer and closer the two objects became visible appearing as two Poptropicans, well at least Codien thought they were, dressed in brown robes. One of the two stepped forward with an outstretched hand gesturing for him to come closer. He spoke, “We need your help, the whole kingdom is in danger!’
Without even a chance for Codien to answer they pulled him into the light with the door closing behind them.

Birds were twittering, the sun was beaming down upon him. Codien had woken without any memory of the sudden trip. All he could remember was the light that brought him here. But where was here?
Glancing around Codien found himself in front of an old building with a telescope gaping out of the roof. Taking in more of his surroundings he figured he was in the middle of an old town full of bustling Poptropicans. It was an old town with high powered telescopes, satellite TV, electricity and the weirdest thing was that most of the poprtropicans walking around were half robotic.
Codien had been taken into the past of the future. The world was a collaboration of both worlds.

Codien still didn’t know what he was doing here. The Poptropicans with brown robes were no where in sight. Looking through the crowds Codien couldn’t find anyone he knew. It was from the corner of his eye he noticed one of the brown robed poptropicans enter the building to the right. Getting up in urgency Codien went to investigate. Peering through the windows Codien saw a room full of  majestic armour and weaponry. With curiosity he entered the building only to be confronted by the two poptropicans that brought him here and and a stranger dressed in Purple robes.

The next 10-20 minutes Codien was told about the unfortunate events of the King and Queen. It only got really exciting when they decided i was going to rescue them. The Blue robed man took many measurements and left the room. He came back with two different outfits in hand. Red and Blue amour.  Both were amazing.
But which one should i choose?

These outfits will be the two sets of armour that you will be able to choose from, like in Super Power island, and customize. How cool do they look. The blue one has a futuristic helmet with a medieval body. The red one has a medieval helmet with futuristic body. I love it how they both have aspects of the future and the past.

I’m sorry its just the one story this week guys. I had another but it was about the ‘A very special dog’ which ended up being the Space Buddies advertisement. 😛

So that’s my Sneak Peaks this week. Next week I’ll have more sneak peaks on the upcoming island Astro-Knights.
See you next week.

Thank-you Mousyblack for notifying us when it was posted.
I, Codien, promise to show you a sneak peak of what the costumes look like when they are made. Also the next issue of PHB Sneak Peaks will have some of the costumes that you will get in the new Astro-Knights Island.


-PHB 400,000 Touchdown Countdown-
Yesterday in America the 43rd annual ‘Super Bowl’ was held. As an Australian i have know idea what it is but I’m guessing its some kind of cereal eating contest. No, i know what it is and i know the the Steelers won. Which is a shame because there was an Australian Football player in the Cardinals squad (I think he was the kicker guy). Did you guys watch the ads? 😀
But while I’m on the subject of football, Poptropica Help Blog is soon to score a touchdown of their own. And this time it’s worth 400,000.
So if you would like, i want you guys to count down, or rather count up to 400,000!
Lets do this!
Darn, you guys are too fast for my post. We have already hit 400,000! Wait a minute…WE HAVE REACHED 400,000!

PARTY!   400,000 PARTY!    PARTY!

Thanks guys for getting to 400,000. We are getting more and more visitors everyday.
From the PHB Team: Thanks!. Without you guys we wouldn’t have a site….well we would but it wouldn’t be viewed. 😛

-400,000 View Punches-

PHB Sneak Peaks: Land Ahoy, Yogo Bucks

[POPTROPICA HELP BLOG ONLY!]

Welcome to the new posts of Poptropica Help Blog Sneak Peaks, that are posted every week on Sundays. On these new posts there will be stories that only we have. And only we post them. These stories are classified and are very secret.
This week we have two articles for us to share; ‘Land Ahoy’ this is an article on the Pirate Advertisement coming out in the near future, and ‘Yogos Bucks’ is another advertisement that will be coming out next week.

-Land Ahoy-
No, Once again they haven’t landed yet…Or have they?

On January 31st, After Codien’s trekking adventure in the jungle led to a mystery involving Pirates, Codien hadn’t been able to sleep. Visions of a pirate ship, slowly drifting from a thick haze, silently landing on the sand kept him awake. The 3 pirates from the photo kept appearing in his dream, running at him with swords in hand.
Codien had had enough. He decided to trek through the jungle to the point where he found the picture to see if he could uncover, or rather find nothing to do with the pirates. After 2 hours of searching he didn’t find anything. No photos, no jewels, not even a gold tooth. There was nothing there. Feeling tired Codien decided to walk back home. It was half way through the jungle when he realised he had gone the wrong way. He was lost. Codien started to get worried. Images of the 3 pirates kept flashing in front of his eyes. In panic he turned on his heel and ran as fast as he could in one direction, Never stopping for a breath. He only slowed down when the familiar sound of the waves crashing on the beach was present. He ran through the last lines of trees when he came crashing down onto the sand. He sighed a long exhausting breath. He felt safe here.

After what seemed hours Codien looked up past the suns blazing rays and out to the water. A rush of panic filled him; he half expected a pirate ship to be looming on the horizon. But there was none. He chuckled to himself.
Crack! The sound of a tree branch broke behind him. isthatapirate
He turned in shock to see a strange man, covered in old red clothing, and a sword on the belt, standing on a rock. Before he could blink the man was gone.

Still gasping for breath, Codien couldn’t tell if what he saw was real.

Was that a real pirate standing on the rock?
This whole Pirate mystery was just too much for Codien to handle.
He decided that the best thing to do was to go see the ‘Shark Tooth’ Islands Medicine Man; and see if he could make a potion that would make him forget the pirates.
Lets just hope he doesn’t have to find another secret ingredient.


What’s the story about?
The story is about the new costume we will be getting in the new advertisement/mission.divinggame1
This pirate costume, along with two others, will be obtainable when the Froot Loops: Fruity Golden Bars mission is released. 
This Froot Loops mission will be similar to the old Froot Loops mission (which can be viewed here), where you will have to help Toucan Sam in a diving game. Except in this diving game you will get a Gold Diving suit. The Froot Loops 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. Of course the best thing about this mission is that there will be those 3 new Pirate costumes. 😀
This mission will be released next week or maybe 3 weeks from now.

Thank-You Graham for your excellent knowledge on Froot Loops.

 

-Yogos Bucks-
Do you want to win some cash?

yogobucks-copy

Last week as Codien was doing his usually shopping on Early Poptropica Island he ran into a strange man and women with funny hats. They were dancing and laughing, jumping and singing. They seemed to be having crazy fun!
How could Codien resist. He had to join them in their dancing and singing. After only a few minutes the song was already in his head:

“Hey Kids! Do you want to have some fun? Have some fun with me.
Grab a pack and eat them up, and prance around with glee.
You can eat, dance, and play. And win some cash with Yogos.
If you want food, and want to win some cash.
 Well then, Grab the Bucks and Go with Yogos“

After dancing and singing, and having so much fun the crazy man decided to give Codien his hat. With a huge grin Codien thanked the man. 
With a sad goodbye, Codien turned on his feet and walked back home with a spring in his step. Singing the song, all the way home.

So first off if you haven’t noticed. For the past week or so there have been ads on the sides of the Poptropica game, advertising Yogos. It was advertising that in specially marked packs of Yogos, you could have a chance to win some money.

So this week or maybe next week Poptropica will bring out the ad in the game (maybe similar to the Wall-E Ad), with Poptropicans dressed in the costumes, featured in the image on the left.
I WANT THAT HAT!

Well I’m from Australia and i have no idea what Yogos are but I’m guessing they’re food.  😛

 If any of you guys didn’t notice but the two products, Froot Loops and Yogos, are both owned by Kelloggs. Which I, have came to the conclusion that…Kelloggs must be advertising on Poptropica. Thought I’d like to point that out. 🙂

So that’s my Sneak Peaks this week. Next week I’ll have sneak peaks on the upcoming island Astro-Knights and a very special Dog.
See you next week.
