    I have all three, but would recommend Frink's Lab the most. It looks cooler than the other two, fits into my town better, and gives you the most central character of the three.

    Second would be Duff, as Duffman is awesome and the brewery looks almost as cool as Frink's lab. Plus, what would Springfield be without Duffman and the brewery?

    I also bought the lair, but put it off to the side (with the Christmas village, popsicle tower, escalator... all the misfits that don't look good anywhere). The lair's animation is decent and Scorpio has some unique tasks... I just have no idea who he is.

    I find Duffman's tasks to be the most entertaining. I think about all of them are outdoors, and a few are in hilariously inappropriate places (corrupting our youth, anybody?).

    I like frinks lab the most, followed by the brewery.

    I dunno what it is about the volcano, it seems like this big thing that you cant really make look unique. When I see the volcano in panorama view threads, they all look the same when the whole map is in the picture. Same with the springfield sign imo - too big and obnoxious to decorate around and look truly unique.

    Dont get me wrong I'd love to have the sign and volcano too, passed up on the deal for some reason.. sometimes we have to be picky so we don't end up spending too much money :shock:

    Difficult decision. All are good as you get the building and a character. I have all three and like them all. Finks lab is the cheapest whereas Hanks volcano lair is the dearest.
    The best animation is the volcano and the best character for tasks IMHO is Duffman.

    I've been trying to decide what to buy next. I don't have the volcano, the sign or Santa's Little Helper. What do you guys recommend?

    I bought the sign before the volcano guy, but that's only because I don't know who he is (as previously discussed upthread). In hindsight, the Springfield sign isn't really that great until you have all of the premium characters and most of the other premium decorations. The return on that purchase is probably one of the worst in the game.

    SLC is awesome, but I would never pay doughnuts for a premium character that does nothing for me. Well, not after the d@mn burns monster anyway.
