Poptropica Despicable Me Ad Walkthrough

There’s another new advertisement building in Poptropica. It looks like it’s available for both boys and girls and I’m not sure if there’s an age requirement like there was for the Percy Jackson one. This ad is for the theatrical release of the Steve Carrell movie, Despicable Me. In this upcoming animated movie, the character Gru tries to steal the moon! In this advertisement mission, you’ll have a much simpler set of tasks to do. This mission is a little bit longer than most and has two parts. In the first part, you need to collect ten missiles before time runs out. In the second part, you try to destroy an enemy plane with the missiles. If you win, you get some very cool prizes as a reward.

Video Walkthrough

Check out the full video walkthrough for all the cheats and secrets of how to beat this quest.

The prizes at the end are a shrink ray gun and a minion costume. The shrink ray gun is very cool. Point it at any Poptropican and press the spacebar to shrink them down to miniature size!

  1. Go inside the advertisement building, which you’ll find on most island Main Street areas.
  2. Talk to the people inside, and then walk into the large blue device which is called the Minion Ray.
  3. You’ll arrive in the lab. Walk to the right towards the big ray gun and then you’ll see a message from Gru. He wants you to become a minion and gather 10 missiles within 60 seconds and then get to the hangar door.
  4. When you’re ready, click the orange start button. You’ll walk into the machine and turn into a cute little minion dude.
  5. Run to the right and jump on the platforms to start finding all of the missiles, which are above you.
  6. When you get all 10, head for the upper-right corner, where you’ll find the hangar door.
  7. Next you’ll play another mini-game where you have to shoot down Vector’s plane. Click the start button when you’re ready.
  8. Move with the cursor and shoot with the spacebar. Try to avoid Vector’s rockets and stay away whenever he uses the green shrink ray.
  9. When you destroy his ship, you’ve beaten the mission and Gru gives you some great rewards.

    Mansion 1

    Mansion 2

    Mansion 3

    Mansion 4

    Decisions, decisions…

    Which one do you like the best? Vote in our poll on the sidebar!

  121. advertisement building, which you’ll find on most island Main Street areas.
    Talk to the people inside, and then walk into the large blue device which is called the Minion Ray.
    You’ll arrive in the lab. Walk to the right towards the big ray gun and then you’ll see a message from Gru. He wants you to become a minion and gather 10 missiles within 60 seconds and then get to the hangar door.
    When you’re ready, click the orange start button. You’ll walk into the machine and turn into a cute little minion dude.
    Run to the right and jump on the platforms to start finding all of the missiles, which are above you.
    When you get all 10, head for the upper-right corner, where you’ll find the hangar door.
    Next you’ll play another mini-game where you have to shoot down Vector’s plane. Click the start button when you’re ready.
    Move with the cursor and shoot with the spacebar. Try to avoid Vector’s rockets and stay away whenever he uses the green shrink ray.
    When you destroy his ship, you’ve beaten the mission and Gru gives you some great rewards

  122. What!?
    Man. Ugh. Okay. Lets do this!!!!!!

  123. i got the shrinck ray

  124. theres a whole bunch of ads that i really want to do but theyre all gone poo!

  125. captain crawfish enemy

    😛 this thing has like more than 100 comments!!!

  126. how u get a profile picture scary shell?

  127. Is it too much to ask people to stop cussing? There could be little kids browsing around here, and people shouldn’t make it a point to teach them every cuss word in the world.

  128. i agree with shiny pear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i am 10 and my twin is also 10. we LOVE poptropica, and i did this one a while ago! it rocked. (well,okay, it was good. it didnt really rock,but it was cool.) did you try the new gullivers travels one? it was kind of hard.=)

  129. did any of u guys try the percy jackson 1 from a little bit ago? i heard it was good but didnt get to do it

  130. im 15 and i can do all the ads!

  131. did you guys see the sneak peak? it’s like some poptropicdians prediction. wild west, way to go!

  132. For the next one advertisement, go to early poptropica and carry the jetpack, this ad is the samurai thing, just go straight up the ceiling and to the finish line.

  133. @Jovy: Great tip.

  134. Hi, I love this site, it helps me so much thank-you for making this web-page!!!
