Salutations, Poptropicans!

 

We’re back in Poptropica Month, the month where Poptropica Youtube masterpieces come out like never before! But I’ve got a question for you. Have you ever wondered what Poptropica would be like if it had its own movies and TV shows? 

 

 

As I read on CEO interviews on the Poptropica Help Blog, Poptropica has never made its own shows or movies, but they’ve always kept this idea in mind. However, one of the members of PHB’s discord server, the Poptropica Help Chat, introduced me to a series of fan-made movies, tv shows, and all sorts of cool Poptropica stuff made by one INGENIOUS poptropican known as Perfect Sky.

 

 

Have any of you ever heard of Perfect Sky? If not, that’s understandable. If I hadn’t been to the PHC, I never would have found out about her either. She stopped making new videos years ago due to the rapid changes in the world of Poptropica, but she made a whole TON of them while she could. I've seen almost all of them now, and although they were simple, they were among the most unique, entertaining, creative, and hilarious Poptropica fandom creations I have ever seen. It’s extremely underrated in my book. 

 

 

Although she stopped making new content years ago, I believe her place in Poptropica was one-of-a-kind, just like the gameplay master Thinknoodles, and our very own Pop Month founders, the Dimension Bros! Let's give all of these geniuses a hand, shall we?

 

So are you looking for some fun, Poptropica fandom? Are you having a hard time finding something on TV? Are you looking for more videos than what’s on the Poptropica Month playlists so far? Then grab your popcorn, click this youtube link, check out her channel, and get watching, ‘cause I think you’re gonna like it! 

 

 

NOTE: All images come from the productions of Perfect Sky. I do not own these images; they are for showcasing purposes only.

 

 

 

Can you believe it’s been 14 years already? FOURTEEN! And what an adventure it's been! From everyone on the Creators’ Team, we want to thank you for your incredible love and support over the past 14 years – we sincerely appreciate every single one of you. 💙

 

Of course, we’re absolutely delighted to celebrate yet another year of Poptropica with the community. In honor of Pop’s anniversary, we are thrilled to announce that the game will be hosting a variety of birthday festivities for ALL players! Throughout the month of September, players will have access to exclusive, FREE costumes (like the Big Cake costume in the Cabin of Curiosities), generous credit opportunities, and rereleased mini games from Pop’s past, as a way to commemorate our most recent milestone!

 

Show your love for all things Poptropica and take to Instagram, Youtube, Tiktok, or become a member of our guest blogging team to join in on the fun! Make your own Pop-inspired videos, fan art, memes, or written posts (anything age appropriate) and share your work with us via the submissions page or by tagging us on social media for the chance to be showcased in our birthday exhibition. The team will be picking some of our favorites to be featured throughout the remainder of September, so don’t be shy! 

 

Stay tuned for more updates about the special, upcoming birthday happenings and the community’s contributions to the celebration! We can't wait to se how you plan on participating in the festivities and what surpises this anninversary may bring along. The excitement around HQ is electrifying! ⚡️

 

Best of luck, Poptropicans! 🤩 🤞

Join us for our next leg of our Clubhouse Crawl across Poptropica as we spotlight your one-of-a-kind cottages! Our next destination is… Clean Sun’s clubhouse!

 

 

First impressions: Clean Sun’s certainly knows how to make their guests feel welcomed. Upon first entrance, it’s clear this Poptropican has some serious feng shui happening! Between the suspended rocket ship above the door and the exotic birds and plants inviting us in, it’s already gearing up to be a memorable stop on our clubhouse tour!

 

 

To the left of the entrance, Clean Sun’s bedroom is on the ground floor. Their sleeping area features trendy neon lighting, a penguin plushie, books, and best of all… the refrigerator! Clean Sun takes midnight snacking very seriously. We might need to take a note out of their book and rearrange our clubhouse setups. 🍕

 

And just above the bedroom, the cozy entertainment area is the perfect place for Poptropicans to take a load off and lounge around on the couch.

 

 

On the upper middle landing, Clean Sun has converted the floor into the main living room. Whether you want to climb into the hammock with a good book or sit at the table for schoolwork, the comfy living room is a one stop shop for any and all activities!

 

 

To the upper right, Clean Sun’s clubhouse renovation includes a mouth-watering pantry, stocked full of tasty treats. It’s dessert galore! Is anyone else taking notes?! 🍰

 

 

Just underneath, the bottom right floors are a charming catch-all for trinkets, decorations, and pets! A seagull, fox, armadillo, and unicorn – oh my! A clubhouse full of animals is a clubhouse full of happiness. How many birds can you spot scattered around Clean Sun’s clubhouse? 🤔🦜

 

What a wonderful second leg of our Clubhouse Crawl across Poptropica! We’d like to give Clean Sun a huge round of applause for decorating their poppin’ paradise! We’ll be spotlighting plenty of individual clubhouses, so if you’d like to be featured on our blog, get to decorating – yours could be next! BONUS: no submissions necessary to be featured. You never know when someone from the Creators’ Team might pop in and take a look around! 

 

Enjoy your weekend and stay hydrated, Poptropicans! 👋

Hey Poptropicans! Today, I’m bringing you a quick review of the Vintage Poptropica Bandana from the official Poptropica Zazzle Store.

 

The product is available in two sizes: kids/small (18″ x 18″) and adult/large (22″ x 22″). Both options feature the classic blue Poptropica throw pattern. It costs US$18.95 and is made of “100% spun polyester,” making it really lightweight and breathable. The material is pretty smooth and reminds me a lot of a cotton bedsheet.

I have always loved this pattern and I’m excited to see it on so many products in Poptropica’s merch store. You can also get it on leggings, a face mask, a puzzle, or a skateboard!

 

One thing that does disappoint me: the pattern is only printed on one side of the cloth. The back of the bandana is a thin heather white. Though I wish the pattern continued on both sides, it was not a surprise.

 

I will also say that the pattern’s images are a bit larger than I originally expected! Not a drawback by any means, just something to note. I’m pretty impressed with the quality of the print.

Overall, I’m quite satisfied with this item. Though thin, the feel and quality of the cloth is great, and I obviously love the pattern.

 

Thanks to the Poptropica Creators for sponsoring this post! They gifted the Poptropica Help Blog a Zazzle gift card so we could share these reviews with you guys. Check out the PHB’s Merchandise Guide for more product info! 💫

 

Stay classic, Poptropicans!
