    "Improves your vanity rating" - so doesn't add to consumerism at THAT price?
    Not even any kind of payout whatsoever. Not a 0.001%
    Swerve.

    it was a community price. Thats the clausco you are thinking of. King homer skyscrapper is the one in black and white.
    250 donuts for an aspirational with no characters? Good luck to people that werent there in halloween 2013 geeze

    Yeah, same here. Way too pricy for a decoration that doesn't even fit that well in Springfield, and only gives Vanity. I've had Vanity maxed since the game started...

    Well I wasn't there in 2013 and consider myself a premium completist but this ill pass in spades. Only a vanity inspirational? What a major letdown after wondering what they'd give us this weekend!!!!

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

    Blimey O'Riley. Seriously?

    Way too much for too little SF goodness.

    Move along - nothing to see here.......

    Well, that makes the decision to choose between the skyscraper and Booberella easy, those were the two items I was looking to buy. At 250 donuts, that's too much for just a building with no attached character. Would be more willing to buy the whale instead, it doesn't take up land space.

    Wow, what a non-deal! I mean, it doesn't even generate cash! Big misstep, if you ask me. I got it last year and it's only in my SF to hide items. Otherwise, it would be in storage.

    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 **** 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.

    yikes, 250? I like having my free one from last year, but... 250?!? I would definitely not be buying it at that cost, even if I were a completionist...

    It looks cool in my friends towns but wouldn't be willing to spend many donuts on it, and 250, no way!

    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.

    Haha I won it in 2013, but I put that ugly monster in storage: ClausCo building is an awesome skyscraper btw, but not this thing.

    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”.
