Notice anything new while logging in today?

 

 

Red skies are creeping in! Hmm. Wonder what that could mean. 🤔

 

In absolutely unrelated news, this year's first 4 Halloween costumes have already been revealed (part 1, part 2). Let’s end this string of spooky sneak peeks on a high note!

 

Gather 'round, adventurers. The final winners for September’s costume contest are…

 

 

 

 

Jellyfish by Purple Paw and Zombie Redcoat by Magic Poptropican! 🏆

 

There you have it – 2022’s completed Halloween costume set. How brilliant have these outfit designs been? Show your fellow Poptropicans some love. Amazing job, everyone! 👏

 

 

Can you believe there’s less than 24 hours until the full collection is up for grabs in the Cabin of Curiosities? Which costume are you most excited for? The excitement is unshakeable! Check back tomorrow to add the six free masterpieces to your closet.

 

Meet you on the Airship! ✨

Better late than never – September’s Baron has finally arrived, safe and well! However, the same cannot be said for the Baron… After going missing in action last month, this month’s Baron is Rumpel-fied, but back at the vessel’s helm nonetheless. Climb aboard the flying vessel, little adventurers. There’s lotsa loot to plunder! 🎉

 

As usual, the Airship arrival signals the delivery of a free player-designed costume. To make up for the delay in this month’s Airship, the Baron has recreated TWO player-made costumes! Without further ado, the winners of August’s costume contest are…

 

 

Candy Girl by Fast Leopard and Jester by Blue Bones! 🍭🤡

 

All players can nab the two FREE costumes from the Airship’s Cabin of Curiosities for a limited time. Put your sweet tooth front and center – channel your inner-cotton candy queen with Candy Girl, before clownin’ around with the Jester’s blue and yellow clown ensemble, complete with a halfsie skull mask and matching mini jester accessory. Congratulations, Fast Leopard and Blue Bones! 👏

 

As for the rest of the Halloween tricks and treats on board, all players can scoop up the dirt-cheap Halloween gear! It’s a steal. Redecorate your clubhouse with the Pumpkin Couch (10 credits), Trick or Treat Bag (10 credits), Pumpkin Chair (10 credits), Cat Clock (10 credits), and Haunted Painting (10 credits) for only 50 credits!

 

 

After securing September’s special haul, don’t forget to chat up the Baron Rumpel! He’s well past keeping his scheme a secret. Now that his plans have escalated, Rumpel’s keen on bragging about the sky pirate’s disappearance and his revenge against the Red Queen – the Baron’s fabled mother…

 

 

Pop tip: Descend to the Baron’s quarters from the Cabin of Curiosities, where Rumpel’s eager to spill the beans to players that have braved The Baron’s Crusade mini quest! 👀

 

Is it possible more Poptropica lore will be here sooner rather than later? Maybe so, little adventurers. 😉 Until then, hurry to the Baron’s Airship and claim your freebies and basically-free Halloween décor! Time’s-a-tickin’, Poptropicans! What do you think of this month’s Airship edition? Share your fave Cabin items in the comments – we want to know! ✨

Although the Airship has arrived Baron-less, the sky pirate’s Cabin of Curiosities is suspiciously well stocked and in order. Has Ack been holding down the fort? Whatever the case, there’s new discoveries to be made in the Airship’s popup shop! 🥳

 

First up: August’s free costume and the winner of last month’s costume contest. As always, choosing only one costume is a ridiculously tough decision. Thank you to everyone who participated in July’s contest round! August’s installment is set to begin tomorrow – keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming announcement and updated details. 

 

Now, without further ado, this month’s winning costume is… THE HAIR by Prickly Tooth! 🌵🦷

 

 

Add “The Hair” to your wardrobes (for FREE) to start customizing the ‘fit’s floral aura, silky tresses, white top, and brown bottoms. Massive props to Prickly Tooth for designing such a flowy, flowery costume! Well done!

 

 

On the opposite end of the Cabin of Curiosities, all players can scoop up another free outfit – The Banana costume – complete with a banana peel, yellow shades, and sword. Like last month’s Cabin haul, August’s inventory highlights another character: The Baron! Despite the sky pirate’s absence, the Baron (and their trusty sidekick, Ack) are the main inspirations for the clubhouse collection.

 

Browse the Baron and Ack Painting (300 credits), Ack Plushie (200 credits), Ack’s Litter Box (5 credits), Wooden Mug (10 credits), Chest of Scrolls (100 credits)? Perhaps they seem familiar? Where have we seen these items before? 🤔

 

Remember, the Airship and its Cabin contents are only available for a limited time! Be sure to stop by the floating vessel ASAP to secure this month’s 2 free costumes and the Baron and Ack’s clubhouse collectables. Don’t let the captain’s absence fool you – the Airship waits for no one!

 

What are your first impressions of August’s Cabin of Curiosities haul? How weird is the Airship without the Baron?! Does anyone else feel the difference? Let us know! 👀

Happy Monday, Poptropicans! There’s tons to cover today in the shopping sphere. Shall we dive right into the action?

 

First things first – monthly member gifts! Although this month’s delivery is 10 days shy of a full moon, August’s exclusive edition is a fur-nomenal howl!

 

Members can now find this month’s Werewolf costume, Werewolf Feet, and a Little Moon Follower in their inventories! Transform your Popsona into a howling werewolf at a moment’s notice, full moon not required. 🐺🌙

 

 

Adventure Outfitters is also sportin’ a fresh feel for the back-to-school season!

 

 

Highlights from this week’s featured costumes include two robo-suits: Xenon Trooper (250 credits) and Retro Robot (350 credits, members only), two sets of bucket hat ensembles, Tie Dye Trends (250 credits) and Frog Buckets (250 credits), and matching workout gear with the Fitness Fun (250 credits) and Body Builder outfits (150 credits, members only). Like the saying goes: “Good things come in pairs.” 👯‍

 

But there’s more good things to be found in-store, sans pair. All players can still purchase last month’s new fantasy ‘fits, Cloaked Rogue and Demon Mischief (350 credits each), while members have the option of adding the Acidic Dinosaur (150 credits) and Glam Gamer Girl (250 credits) costumes to their wardrobes.

 

Alongside the updated costume rotation, AO’s restocked its college clubhouse collection!

 

 

Just in time for back to school, players of all ages can decorate their clubhouses with a variety of transportation: Green and Purple Electric Bikes (200 credits each), Red College-style Electric Scooter (100 credits, members only), and Skateboard (200 credits), plus a rad Singer Poster (75 credits, members only). 🛵

 

For after school snacks, the Burger (75 credits), Chocolate Shake (75 credits), Soda Bottle (75 credits), Soda Can (75 credits), and Sub Sandwich (75 credits) are a must! 🥤🥪

 

What do you think about this week’s store update? Do you see a redecorating session in your future? Are you in the mood to share the back-to-school season with your Poptropican?

 

We want to know! Share your thoughts and responses in the comments section with your fellow players! 🤔

 

 

Buckle up, Poptropicans. This isn’t your average Baron visit, it’s certainly a sight to see! 👀

 

Board the Airship and make your way into the Baron’s treasure trove, the Cabin of Curiosities. Before making a beeline for the free gear, there’s a good chance you’ll notice an unusual spin on this month’s Cabin collection – it’s almost impossible to ignore.

 

Personally tailored by the Baron, July’s pop up shop inventory features a brass Rumpel Skull (50 credits), Rumpel Lamp (30 credits), Gold Rumpel Statue (100 credits), Unicorn Plushie (30 credits), Rumpel Plushie (100 credits), and a costume boasting an eccentric mashup of villains – Dr. Rumpel Bunskin (10 credits). The mysterious bundle totals 320 credits, not bad for a Rumpel redesign!

 

If you’re suspicious of the Baron’s sudden liking to Rumpelstiltskin, fear not! According to the sky pirate, they’re perfectly fine and “all of us little adventurers could learn a thing or two from him.” Hmm… the eye twitching "with the thrill of adventure" might say otherwise.

 

 

Nonetheless, the Baron’s Cabin of Curiosities wouldn’t be complete without its free player-designed costume! Presenting, the winner of June’s costume contest…

 

 

STAR KID by Busy Bee! 🌟💫

 

Stellar space outfit all around – the star eye patch and planetary tee are lovely additions to the winning lineup. Congratulations on your cosmic costume, Busy Bee! 👏👏

 

This is your sign to pay the Baron a visit ASAP! The Star Kid costume is FREE TO ALL PLAYERS while the Airship is docked on Home Island! There’s no telling if or when winning designs will return, so don’t miss July’s limited edition drop!

 

Honorable mentions: check out the entirety of players’ submissions from last month’s contest – there are tons of absolute gems (too many to count)! Shoutout to everyone who participated in June’s contest round! 🤩

 

 

Whew, what a whirlwind! What do you think about this month’s Cabin of Curiosities collection? Have any theories about the Baron’s behavior? Can you pick a favorite piece of Rumpel regalia? Share your thoughts with your fellow Poptropicans in the comments below! ⬇️

Good morning, Poptropicans!

Climb aboard the Airship to start exploring the Flight Deck. Wander the Airship’s Flight Deck while interacting with other players, making friends, and people watch (Poptropican watch?) for some fresh costume inspiration.

 

Make your way to the Cabin of Curiosities to find the Baron’s pop up shop and private quarters. This month’s treasures are putting the 2 most recent dream islands front and center: Goofball and Jade Scarab Islands! 🤪

 

Decorate your clubhouse with the Baron’s collection of artifacts from Jade Scarab and Goofball Islands! Wonder how these were picked up… 

 

Anyhoo! For goofy gear, add a cluster of Goofball Gems (100 credits), Goofball Emperor Statue (50 credits), and Ancient Goofball Island Artifact (250 credits)! Come to think of it, can you think of any other Poptropicans with noses? 👃🤔

 

Lest not forget the Ancient Egypt memorabilia! Adorn your clubhouse with the Ancient Egyptian Sarcophagus (100 credits) and Jade Scarab Column (50 credits). 🪲

 

 

As always, to the left is the winner of last month’s costume contest! All players are invited to add the winning costume to your inventories – for FREE!!

 

Now, the time you’ve been patiently waiting for. DING DING DING, we have a winner! The latest costume creation to land the coveted title is… BOXING BARB by Nervous Star! Congratulations Nervous Star! 🌟

 

 

All players can now transform their Popsonas into mean, green, fighting machines! The Boxing Barb outfit features all green athletic gear, sweat band, boxing gloves, and sneakers. Mix and match the green get up with your other outfits to tailor your championship costume to your tastes. Be sure to pick up all 3 parts of the outfit (clothes, shoes, and gloves)! 🥊

 

 

This month’s Cabin of Curiosities haul totals 550 credits. In the event you’re running low on credits, play the Clear the Skies minigame on the main deck. Each successful completion is rewarded with 50 credits (and it’s replayable)! 

 

But beware – the Baron waits for no one! 🏴‍☠️ The Baron’s special visits only last a short while and are known to be over in a flash. Don’t miss June’s Cabin of Curiosities haul featuring dreamy island decor and this month's free costume, Boxing Barb!
