The Dark Blue Pod was originally released early on Habbo, and later removed for unknown reasons. The Pod was from the Plasto section of the catalogue. It was available on various hotels, notably the Finnish Hotel, but none of the current merged hotels, classing it as an Arcane Rare. It is similar to the Gold Pod, which was also scripted into hotels and unavailable in the catalogue.

The Dark Blue Pod was released in the catalogue accidentally in 2008 on Habbo Hotel UK for roughly 10 minutes, causing more of them to be available on the hotel. After this, the Pods were ignored by Moderators and allowed publicly in users rooms. Before the accidental release, and as the Pod was scripted, they were often picked up by Moderators and deleted.

The old method for "scripting in" was really quite simple and the Dark Blue Pod was obtainable by changing text values using scripting tools such as "ArtMoney". An example method would be to open the plants sections of the catalogue and click to buy a Bonsai Tree without confirming, then you would open up your tool of choice, search for and change the value of A2 BONSAI (Bonsai Tree) to A2 PL6 (Dark Blue Pod) and then finally by cancelling and re-clicking to buy would complete the illegitimate purchase.

The Dark Blue Pod was no longer obtainable via scripting as of March 2003.

Ordering details in Finnish hotel.

Back in the early years of Finnish hotel when Credits weren't released yet and everything had to be purchased via SMS, there used to be "secret" furnies. SMS codes to order those secret furnies weren't visible in Catalogue. However, if you knew the codes, you could still use them to order the furnies.

Unlike other available Plasto pods, both Dark Blue Pod and Gold Pod were part of the secret furnies. Codes to order these pods were "A2 PL6" (Dark Blue) and "A2 PL7" (Gold). The cost of one pod was 5 mk (Finnish markka, approx. 0,84 EUR/USD in 2002).

When Credits were released in 2003, these codes became invalid. Plasto furni became available to be purchased with Credits but both Dark Blue Pod and Gold Pod were excluded from the Catalogue. This is most likely due to their previous secret furni status. This may also be the reason why they aren't really sold in other hotels. Both of these pods are very common in Finnish hotel and it's not sure whether they are resold afterwards.
