The Poptropica Creators are certainly pushing their LEGO project. This time they’ve rolled out a PDF of Dr. Hare that you can print, cut out, and construct yourself. I have to admit, that would look pretty cool on my shelf. Here’s the original announcement: We still need 2,300+ more votes to reach 10,000 supporters for the Dr. Hare’s Lair Lego …
