It's you money so get what you want.
Personally i like characters more than buildings so i would get Dr. Nick over the Stadium

    I regret not getting the Bowlarama. I will as soon as I can.

    I love Dr. Nick. He's a good choice. I also would get Otto and Frink, and maybe Lugash.

    Of the options you listed you can't wrong with Otto or Frink and his lab.

    Dont forget to consider:

    1) Crazy cat lady and cat house (has awesome outdoor tasks!)
    2) Cracker Factory with Louanne (also includes a questline with a vehicle and a premium task for Kirk)

    :-)

    character/building combos are the best bang for your buck. prioritize them first. Dr. Nick is always awesome. he has great one-liners, will always make you laugh.

    I'm a level 41 player, and have never bought donuts or spent real $$$...but ready to buy a boatload of donuts.

    I did buy Duffman/Duff Brewery with 190 donuts I accumulated...and I won squeaky voiced teen.

    Finally ready to buy some donuts, and figure to spend the $100 and get a boatload

    Here is what I'm thinking for first purchases:

    1. Otto School Bus - I like Otto
    2. Cracker Factory - 3 quest lines, good animation, then can buy fleet-a-pitas
    3. Duff Stadium - I got Duffman, and like him flying over the stadium and cheapish at 90 donuts
    4. Volcano Lair - I like the look of the lair, and good animations
    5. Frink's Lab - Not sure about this one, but its only 150 donuts with a character. I like the look of the building, but wish there were more tasks for Frink.
    6. Community Center - Not really in love with this one either, but for 150 donuts I like the building and Jasper has plenty of tasks.

    I like the film set because you get McBain, but did not make it a priority

    I like Barney Bowlalrama, and will add it too...but not at first.

    What do you think? Anything I failed to consider or mistakes I made in considering one over another?

    Good list. If you're planning to get the film set, get the Krustylu Studios with Sideshow Mel as well. They go well together.

    you've waited this long - id wait to see if a summer donut sales happens. The return on investment is fantastic. Also - if you have access to a kindle fire, amazon is currently giving you 1/2 back in coins for in-app purchases.

    Once you have your donuts...I'd say:

    Otto
    Frink
    Barney

    Are all must haves with great animation...next would probably be Luan because she has a great long quest, the fleet a pita and a lot of visible tasks.

    I will also take a closer look at the crazy cat lady.

    I looked at Dr Nick and see he has 7 jobs, will consider him too

    but think my first character bought would be arnie pye since I like him flying in the copter and 4 of 5 tasks are visible

    I saw the action stage set thing in a friends town the other day. Get it... Get it now!!

    We pay for pixels and these are by far the coolest pixels in the game

    the action stage is sweet. it gives you the McBain skin and he has some pretty tasks.

    My advice buy what you want. Id go for buildings with characters, but other than that just buy what you like the look of.

    that said, it might be smart to wait a little bit and see if a donut sale happens. It might not, but it seems like we're due for one about now.

    Arnie Pye is soooo outrageously annoying after the first 10 seconds of watching him. I even hate him in my friends towns. :evil:

    i get annoyed by Arnie Pye when i try to tap around his helicopter and the task meter keeps popping up. that and it causes lag now and then. otherwise he's pretty cool.

    thanks for the tips...

    I went to spend my $100 for a boatload...

    first my credit card flagged it as possible fraud...I got that fixed now iTunes is blocking it saying your purchase can't be completed

    Had to email iTunes 4+ hours ago and waiting for their answer

    would be nice if they popped in a Gil Sale while waiting for stupid iTunes

    I love Arnie Pye.

    The Springfield sign is iconic and is also useful for hiding things behind.. :)
