I like it. My son comes up to my iPad and sees I am playing simpsons and then yells monkey. I scroll to my skyscraper and he laughs his butt off every time Homer Kong puts his arm around, tries to climb up and fails. I love this game, but honestly that is the only item which I would actually have no remorse in buying.
Kids say the darnedest things.

It's one of my favorite buildings as well, though I realize we're in a small minority around here.

I feel bad for those who missed (and want) it. Any chance they'll add a multiplier? That would make the price easier to swallow.

Yeah... so not worth 250 donuts. But then, for what it is, I'd have passed on it at 100 donuts.

I keep it in storage

I feel sorry to those who weren't around last year. The animation is nice, but this is highway robbery for a building that doesn't earn cash, has no multiplier, and has no tasks for any of the characters. It's almost as bad as the 300 donut whale (and that's a multiplier).

I'd buy it if it's payout was in donuts or mystery boxes.

What about the old players? We have everything that posed as a “deal”.

:roll:

I'm with the others who DID win this in 2013 but have had it in storage ever since last Halloween because it's so big and useless. To each his own, but I also find it annoying seeing Homer King Kong climbing up the building and falling off every time I scroll past it. It's pretty badly out of scale to other buildings too. I'd love to have another big building to go alongside the fantastic Claus Co., but not this one.

I bet very few people will go for this deal (but who knows). If EA put a price on this more like 80 or 100 donuts, they'd probably end up making a lot more money. 250 donuts is just awful.

It looks great in my Springfield. I have it in a "downtown" area next to ClausCo.

Auctioneer: Who'll give me 250 donuts for this lovely building? 250, 250. No? How about 200? 200 I say. No. 150 then. Come on 150 for cool animation. No. (Continues this way.) Sigh. 5 donuts. Ah come on guys, 5 donuts. etc.

:roll: :)

Yeah, No.

Surely that zero is a typo. I thought 150 donuts for Santa's Little Helper was bad.

This!

Mine is still in storage. Likely to remain there.
