Old Items Return?

I'm a long time player. Joined late during the first Halloween event. Over the years, EA did allow players to get some of those items from prior years.

I know of two items I somehow missed - the star Maggie character (that was in a Holiday update and was the last item to unlock in Phase 1. I didn't get to her in time and I couldn't go back to unlock her!) and a football (U.S.) field. I've been wanting one of these for a while and see them in my game neighbor's towns, but don't ever recall seeing it. If I somehow missed it, I'd love to see it return.

The vault is nice, but I have those items. I wish they'd show items from years gone by that players might want to obtain. And maybe have more than one of them in a town!
  • The Star suit Maggie outfit should return in this years Winter event.

    The Football field should also return on the next Super Bowl update, which should hopefully finally bring Stan Taylor as a playable character along with the Springfield Atoms stadium
  • I have no idea how I missed the football field last year! But thank you! :)

    It actually came out this year along with Cleatus as a playable character
  • Since I already had Cleatus, did I miss out on the field? Or did I just not pay attention (very likely)?

    There's two Cletus' one that is human the other is like a robot
  • Cletus is everyone's favorite slack-jawed yokel

    Then there's Cleatus the Football Robot

    2 totally different characters with their names spelled differently.
  • If you have Cleatus the football robot, not to be confused with Cletus the Slack-Jawed yokel, you should have at least 1 football field.

    "Cleatus is a limited-time character that was released on February 2, 2017, as part of the Football 2017 Promotion. He is unlocked with the first Football Field purchased."

    The first Football Field was free during the event so if you have Cleatus you had to have placed at least one. After that for every additional Football Field you want in your Springfield was 10k. At any rate I don't believe we will be seeing it again until next year.
