Bump.
  • I remember last year people started complaining after a short time that the building is too tall and just decoration. A lot of people tucked it into their inventory. It was the 30000 goo final prize. I was a bit disappointed about it as well since it has no character tasks with it. 250 donuts is extreme and puts it on the same level as barney.
  • I like it, so I got it. But you're right 250 donuts was really steep.

    I'm really feeling like EA is taking advantage of people/newer players (who were really looking forward to re-release of this stuff) with the pricing of a lot of the Halloween re-introduced items. I've said it before, I know it's my choice to buy it (and I admittedly have, along with a lot of other things), but if this trend continues they are going to turn off a lot of people who would normally fork out actual money for this game. I like the premium/re-released stuff, but even I'm thinking that this event is costing way too much. And it's not even over. I get the charging if donuts for re-released content, but they could at least try to be a bit more reasonable with the cost is what I'm trying to say. I could see them losing players over this. It is beginning to turn me off of the game a bit, but I continue to play in the hopes that they will be a bit more reasonable with the pricing (yah. I know. Wishful thinking). Again, this is just my opinion.

    I was really hoping for this item to return, though. I actually managed to find a good place for it where it's not really blocking anything.

    I won mine at last year's Halloween event. I put it in with my other skyscrapers in the back so they wouldn't block my other buildings. I'd feel guilty if I kept it in storage all year round.

    I consider myself a premium completetist but this is a no brainier. I'd have to think about it even at 50 donuts. What a disappointment!! Last 2 Friday mornings waking up to a retro character/building have been great! Hopefully Sunday morning they'll be something awesome?
    agreed
