We start this week with an incredible contribution to the community from John Holtkamp, known to most by the name amazingflyingpoo .
Last week he released his brand new and totally free LittleBigHub App, which is a rather nifty little tool that will allow you to follow creators, queue levels and keep up-to-date with all the latest activity on LBP.me !
To check out this amazing application for yourself, head on over to LittleBigLand.com to see what LittleBigHub can offer you!
This isn’t the first time that we have featured amazingflyingpoo in Sack it to Me, in fact he’s contributed so much to the community that he has already been awarded both the Rare Prize Crown and the Awesomesauce Pin!
Last week, we released the Disney Princesses Pack 2. It contained our second collection of Disney Princess costumes, including Ariel, Tiana, Rapunzel and Belle. These costumes are available individually again, but there is a further collection of bonus stickers for anyone who picks up the full pack.
For more information on our newest pack, head on over to the LittleBigPlanet Downloadable Content Catalogue.
Don’t forget that you can complete your Disney Princesses Costumes and Stickers collection by picking up Disney Princesses Pack 1 too. Purchasing both Disney Princesses Pack 1 and Disney Princesses Pack 2 will give you access to the full collection of the Disney Princess Costumes and the complete set of Bonus Stickers!

Gamescom 2012 is currently in progress and LittleBigPlanet is the height of popularity there, thanks to our brand new titles LittleBigPlanet PS Vita and LittleBigPlanet Karting. To celebrate the occasion, we have a few treats for you!
Customization is a BIG part of LittleBigPlanet. Being able to modify your Sackboy or Sackgirl is a way for players to personalize their experience, while also bringing a variety of different franchises and entertainment properties into the LBP universe.
Tearaway is kind of like a buddy movie. It stars iota, a messenger from a paper dimension, whose envelope head contains an urgent message to deliver… to you! It’s a very special message, and one that’s unique for each and every player. In order to read yours, you’ll need to take up the role of co-star and, together with iota, journey through the vibrant papery landscape — two buddies going on an epic adventure.
You and iota will travel afar, taking on enemies and helping those in need. You’ll conquer adversity and discover magical papery surprises. But in Tearaway, you’re holding more than just a PS Vita in your hands — you’re holding the paper world itself!
On July 10th, the LittleBigPlanet Karting Beta opened its doors to the world, and for three weeks both fans and newcomers alike had the opportunity to experience LBP Karting for themselves. With nearly 350 levels published every day and over 125,000 total participants, the LBP Karting Beta was extremely successful, and we want to thank everyone involved for their participation and feedback. We loved having you, and we can’t wait to see you all again when the game releases later this year!
For those of you who weren’t involved, we’d like to take this opportunity to share some of the most impressive creations that were crafted using LBP Karting’s intricate 3D Create tools. This is by no means comprehensive, but it is a very good selection, and we hope it will at least help sate your desire to get your hands on LBP Karting while we continue to polish the game.
Joining myself and Simon on the LittleBigPlanet Community Team, Michael from San Diego Studios will be here to help with the community management of Sackboy’s upcoming karting adventure, LittleBigPlanet Karting!
Michael may be better known to some of you as ConfusedCartman (Or as Valeview suggested should that be ConfusedKartman now?), the former administrator of the massively popular LBPCentral.com fansite.
Michael will be a great asset to the community team and should be able to help you with all your LittleBigPlanet Karting needs.
Greetings Sackfolk! The LittleBigPlanet community is about to get another very special treat! In case the opportunity to participate in the LittleBigPlanet Beta on PS Vita wasn’t amazing enough, many of you will soon have the chance to participate in the LittleBigPlanet Karting Beta on PS3!
The goal of the Beta is to get feedback on the overall experience from Sackfolk who understand it like few others – you!
There will be a lot more information to follow, so keep an eye on the PlayStation.Blog for details on how to register. For now, though, dust off your driving gloves and prepare to experience the most competitive LittleBigPlanet yet!

Mm Picks
We have quite an amazing mix of levels for you in the Mm Picks this week! There’s the 75 minute long Ninja Cat movie, the retro Red Knight adventure game, a rather puzzling platformer that will make you Think Before You Jump, an excellent arcade shooter in Galak-Z Raiden: Resurgence and finally the Tread Carefully puzzle game.
