Oh, the Leg Bone’s Connected to the Hip Bone…

…And that’s the only part of that song that I know.  …I don’t even know if I got that part right…  Oh, well.

There’s a new costume/power available just in time for Halloween in the Poptropica Store!  Get ready to start singing “the leg bone’s connected to the hip bone” with me when you wear the Skeleton Power.

As you can see from the picture above, there are two buttons that you can press.  The first one is the “I’m A Skeleton” button.  If you press that, you turn into a skeleton.  I know, surprising, right?

A skeleton with eyelashes… Somehow that doesn’t fit.

The second button is the “I See Skeletons” button.  That one will turn everyone around you into a skeleton.

There’s only one problem…  I couldn’t find a way to undo the “I’m A Skeleton” part, so I clicked on the customize button and clicked on my skull and skeleton body-suit thing, and this is what I was left with…

Uh… Where’s my hair?

Before I leave to fix this costume crisis that I have on my hands, I just wanted to let you know about a small little change in the Poptropica Store.  All the Halloween-related costumes have been moved to the front of the store.  So, instead of seeing a baby costume as the first thing in the line of costumes, you’ll see something like the Bride of Frankenstein or the Swamp Monster costumes toward the front, instead.  It’s probably only temporary for Halloween, though.

Well, I’m off to go see if I can find my hair.  I hope you have more luck with the Skeleton Power than I did!

Pop the Gum!

There is a new popgum in the store! Yeay! Black Widow posted this. She does owe us from Counterfeit Island and maybe Reality T.V. Island. So *trumpets* this is what she says :

Just in time for Halloween, you can get a spooky new type of chewing gum in the Poptropica Store.


When the spooktacular gum pops, a group of wailing ghouls flies away. Take some into any common room and see if you can scare the daylights out of other Poptropicans, like I did to this precious princess here:


Who needs a costume? Not me!

Two New Ads and New Costumes

The first new ad that has arrived is an ad for a new TV series that is coming up on Cartoon Network.  The TV show is called Tower Prep.

The picture from the sign that was near the ad.

You don’t have to do anything in this ad, but you can customize your Poptropican with these costumes that are in the ad.

Why do these costumes remind me a little bit of Harry Potter?

The next ad is for Barbie *gasp*.  Creators, how could you do this to me? I’m going to get this over as fast as possible!

That is just too pink for Halloween!

To complete this ad, you must help Barbie choose the perfect costume for the Halloween party.  My suggestion would be to just click on any random costume, they all work, and it saves time.

Once you choose the costume, Barbie will give you a cat costume.

This does NOT look anything like a cat!

You HAVE to put the cat costume on if you want to go to the party and complete the ad.  So, put the costume on and go to the party.  Once you are at the party, you will have completed the ad.

Now, I can announce something fun!

There are some new costumes in the Poptropica Store!

Now these costumes are cool!

Hey, maybe this means Monster Carnival will be coming back to Poptropica!  I hope so!

Well, there you have it, two new ads and some new costumes to the Poptropica Store!
