Secrets of Club Penguin: Herbert Statue

The island of club penguin holds many secrets that can be easily missed. There is so much more than the obvious larger features and the details in much of what you see on Club Penguin are as fascinating as the rooms and features themselves. These minor items and details all tell a story from club penguin's past. Secrets from club penguin also include things that can be found from many club penguin graphics. Below is a Secrets of Club Penguin article on the Herbert statue at the mine shack. Enjoy!

We've all seen it at some point or another while waddling around the Club Penguin island. As you approach the mine shack you will see a Herbert statue covered with vines. This ice sculpture has made its home here since the summer of 2010. You're probably thinking what this Herbert statue has to do with anything. This isn't just any statue or feature Club Penguin added for decoration at the Mine Shack. It actually has a thrilling back-story and is the reason the island is currently afloat. There's a lot more than meets the eye. Have a look at the Herbert statue in the provided image below:

This statue of Herbert P. Bear was originally spotted in a sneak peek from Billybob in the spring of 2010. Soon afterwards, Club Penguin released it's second DS game known as 'Herbert's Revenge' which become a huge hit with the players once it was available. It had several missions that could only be played via this game. With this said, one of these missions links directly to this exact statue, mission 10. It was located in Herbert's lair and was still a working progress as he was busy with his newest evil scheme: to make Club Penguin warmer. To warm up the island, Herbert got a gigantic magnifying glass and aimed it directly at the Mine Shack room. Herbert's scheme, of course, backfired on him and together he and the EPF sealed the hole (Caused by the Magnifying Glass) with the Herbert Statue. 

Once Club Penguin was saved, the Elite Penguin Force decided to keep the statue placed here. Personally, I always find these links to Club Penguin's past fascinating and as you stroll pass this statue next time, don't forget what secret it holds.
