The Sacktue of Liberty
Archive: 36 posts
Last week we celebrated the Summer Solstice with the release of the <a href="http://www.mediamolecule.com/2009/06/17/celebrate-the-summer-solstice-get-beardy/">Druid costume</a> available for free, which we’re pleased to see many of you enjoyed. To continue the celebrations, we’re marking this years Independence Day by releasing a <strong>Sacktue of Liberty</strong> costume, available once more for free! Featuring the iconic crown and robe from the Statue of Liberty, the costume also includes the famous <em>torch of enlightenment</em>, complete with glowing flames of fabric. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mediamolecule/3671727330/" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.mediamolecule.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/LBPDLCORIGCO0020-StatueOfLiberty-HD.jpg" alt="The Sacktue of Liberty" title="The Sacktue of Liberty" width="600" height="338" class="size-full wp-image-1429" /></a> The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statue_of_Liberty">Statue of Liberty</a> (officially titled <em>Liberty Enlightening the World</em>) was a gift from France to the United States of America in 1886 to commemorate the centennial of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence. Sculpted by <em>Fr?d?ric Auguste Bartholdi</em>, the 93m (305ft) high statue’s internal structure was interestingly enough engineered by <em>Maurice Koechlin</em> – none other than the designer of the Eiffel Tower. It is now internationally recognised as a symbol of the United States of America, and a fitting choice to celebrate the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independence_Day_(United_States)">United States of America’s day of Independence</a> this July 4th. Head over to the PSN Store this July 2nd to grab this limited-time costume in time for the big day. And don’t forget that the Druid costume is still available this week, but for a limited time only, so make sure you download your Druid before Thursday; if only to secure yourself that <a href="http://www.mediamolecule.com/2009/06/25/store-udpate-burgerman-and-druid/">awesome beard</a> for your Sackboy. ------------------------- "The Sacktue of Liberty" is an automatically posted news item which was grabbed from MediaMolecule.com (www.mediamolecule.com).

The torch looks great, though the robe is disappointing. | 2009-06-29 13:05:00 Author: Killian Posts: 2575 |
Oh that's just awesome, another free costume!! I quite like it...it's "cute" and I can see many uses for that torch. | 2009-06-29 13:07:00 Author: Zwollie Posts: 2173 |
Oh, great costume yet again. The dress looks kinda off, but it would fit with the cardboard mask to make a girly cardboard mask costume ;D | 2009-06-29 13:23:00 Author: AwesomePossum Posts: 446 |
the new material looks perfecr for teenage mutant ninja turtles! im making michellangelo first thing! | 2009-06-29 13:54:00 Author: Tomfitz Posts: 3 |
the crown looks nice and so does the torch. | 2009-06-29 14:03:00 Author: oldage Posts: 2824 |
I think the robe suits him (or her?), its made out of cardboard so it seems more statue like! | 2009-06-29 14:13:00 Author: Leather-Monkey Posts: 2266 |
Free stuff = good. | 2009-06-29 14:55:00 Author: wexfordian Posts: 1904 |
Looks nice. I like it how it's made out of cardboard. It gives it a very LBP sort of feel. If it's free I'll probably get this. | 2009-06-29 16:00:00 Author: lk9988 Posts: 1077 |
Yessssss another free costume! I hope the crown isn't attached to the hair and that torch looks awesome. | 2009-06-29 16:22:00 Author: brnxblze Posts: 1318 |
Can't see any use for the robe, but the torch has some possiblities I guess. I'm betting the hair isn't separate from the crown... so that's pretty useless imho. At least it's free though. | 2009-06-29 16:35:00 Author: Rustbukkit Posts: 1737 |
Thanks for more free stuff Mm! I can't wait to download it. Many uses for the torch, even though I'm not a major costume maker. | 2009-06-29 16:37:00 Author: Coxy224 Posts: 2645 |
First off, let's get this out of the way... I think the robe suits him (or her?), its made out of cardboard so it seems more statue like! HER!!ZOMGQ!!!! But, anyways....Another free costume. Yay!!!! | 2009-06-29 16:55:00 Author: crazymario Posts: 657 |
the robe bugs me but its free so i cant complain | 2009-06-29 17:40:00 Author: Sonic5411 Posts: 712 |
I love the torch but I LOVE the color. Great job there. The robe would have been so much more useful if it were actually a fabric one - just think of the Greek Goddess possibilities. Oh well, I'll take her as she is. FREE! | 2009-06-29 17:44:00 Author: Morgana25 Posts: 5983 |
It's a great costume but i don't like the dress being made out of card I suppose i can't complain though.. you probably won't be able to tell from a distance anyway | 2009-06-29 18:23:00 Author: Dexiro Posts: 2100 |
Free costumes are win!! Almost as win as this: http://www.geocities.com/the_phantom_mouse/LittleLink.gif | 2009-06-29 18:47:00 Author: Sage Posts: 2068 |
Awesome, that torch would become very useful for custom costumes!!! I can't wait!!! | 2009-06-29 19:18:00 Author: tjb0607 Posts: 1054 |
Looks awesome, but why is a British company celebrating American Independence? | 2009-06-29 19:35:00 Author: Code1337 Posts: 3476 |
Looks awesome, but why is a British company celebrating American Independence? Maybe because Sony is a Japanese company? But yeah... lookss great :O | 2009-06-29 19:40:00 Author: RockSauron Posts: 10882 |
The torch looks great, though the robe is disappointing. exactly what i thought. A cardboard robe, looks more like a sandwhich board. | 2009-06-29 19:51:00 Author: deboerdave Posts: 384 |
exactly what i thought. A cardboard robe, looks more like a sandwhich board. Yeah... it's almost as if they realized how much easier it would be to give this cheap look away after making those horrible ICO costumes. lol | 2009-06-29 20:02:00 Author: Rustbukkit Posts: 1737 |
Free is nice... but how bout some more level packs Mm? | 2009-06-29 20:09:00 Author: Noremac469 Posts: 143 |
LOL!! That is cute. Possibly just sticker a similar color on a dress to make a fabric robe? I like the torch and crown at least. Wish the torch shot fireworks or something!! | 2009-06-29 20:16:00 Author: jwwphotos Posts: 11383 |
Looks awesome, but why is a British company celebrating American Independence? A large portion of their consumer base is American, and they want to keep their customers happy. | 2009-06-29 20:16:00 Author: BSprague Posts: 2325 |
doesn't the statue of liberty have a 7 pointed crown? | 2009-06-29 21:40:00 Author: Shris Posts: 126 |
What are these costume possibilities using the flame you guys are talking about?? The only thing I can think of is some guy from an angry mob | 2009-06-29 22:03:00 Author: midnight_heist Posts: 2513 |
Wow, either Mm stored my idea away for later, or we just think on the same wavelength (we even called it the same thing): http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/4585/sacktueoflibertyww4.jpg Link to the page my entry comment is on. (http://news.littlebigworkshop.com/en-us/post/2008/09/LittleBigChallenge-003-%E2%80%93-Official-in-game-SackBoy-costume-contest%21.aspx?commentPageId=75) I'll definitely be getting this. | 2009-06-29 22:11:00 Author: ConfusedCartman Posts: 3729 |
hmm a torch you say? this could be quite usefull | 2009-06-29 22:38:00 Author: redmagus Posts: 667 |
I'm looking forward to this and think the costume looks great I will definately be downloading it. Hopefully this is the start of the free costumes again now? | 2009-06-29 22:41:00 Author: Arikardo Posts: 158 |
I totally called this https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=t=8979 Edit: Looks like I had the same idea as CC. | 2009-06-30 05:43:00 Author: Sackdragon Posts: 427 |
Yeah... it's almost as if they realized how much easier it would be to give this cheap look away after making those horrible ICO costumes. lol Stop sucking, it's unhealthy for all of us. Anyways, the costume is awesome, and honestly the cardboard is a nice touch... it fits in with the theme of LBP being composed of crafty materials... | 2009-07-02 02:47:00 Author: Astrosimi Posts: 2046 |

Hey... I added an "lol" at the end.... did you miss it somehow!? | 2009-07-03 19:42:00 Author: Rustbukkit Posts: 1737 |
Is it still out? | 2009-07-11 02:26:00 Author: g-1reaper2 Posts: 22 |
Is it still out? Let's see, it was out July 2nd, and today's the 10th. That would mean its been 8 days, and unless they changed the number of days in a week, i'm afraid you're out of luck m8. | 2009-07-11 03:10:00 Author: Silverleon Posts: 6707 |
eek, i forgot it was only in the store for a week! I can't remember whether i downloaded it or not D: | 2009-07-11 03:14:00 Author: Dexiro Posts: 2100 |
