    I havent hit the baby task yet but she can give 3 more characters. I believe they are free if you can wait the 90 days each,.

    Been wondering the same thing. I have 127 donuts, and I want to buy Otto, but I don't want to miss out if Brandine is super cool. If she weren't labeled as limited time, I would have bought Otto already and planned on maybe getting Brandine later, but since it's not guaranteed I can do that, I'm torn.
    So, my question is, is she worth putting Otto on hold for?

    i used my donuts that i saved up from last year and brought her becouse she limited. the bad thing about her you have to send her on 3x 90 days just to get the kids so you cart used her for a very long time

    If you buy her, you won't see her for 9 months. Money well spent!

    No question. Yes. I just started her on the baby makin' task, the first of her litter. I'm really enjoying the animation! We'll see if I'm patient enough to wait to whole 9 months.. it'll probably get to the end of the month and I won't be able to wait anymore. Some of my neighbours already have the kids running around. So jealous :roll: it's so exciting!

    @neuroheart That's a tough call because if she becomes permanent you'll be kicking yourself for not having Otto's bus. But Brandine is a great character, she's a good investment with her kids but then Otto goes to KL. I see the trouble you're having dang it haha

    I liked the pregnant and smoking...... But I speed it up and now I have 3 kids who make some extra money. Every bit helps my paltry 35+ million dollars.

    So far I am enjoying her storyline. I think she's worth it, but it's really a personal decision. other things in the plus column for me, the fact it's a girl. Not enough females in SF it seems. Plus, she births 3 money earning NPC's for free if you can stand the wait.

    On the con side though, no voice, and only 2 (I think) visible tasks. Plus, she is 100 donuts, which is steep for just a character. And if you can't wait, then she'll end up costing you more donuts for her kidlets.

    Kind of silly, but I considered not getting her because I didn't think it was fair that Cletus gets his wife in the game before Wiggum, Apu, Dr Hibbert, and Rev Lovejoy. Then I reasoned, it's not a town unless you have more than one hillbilly. :P

    To bottom line it for yas, I look at it this way: am I going to regret not having her more than I regret having her? In 2012, I SUPER regretted not getting witch Marge after Halloween ended. And lucky for me, I got to rectify that in Halloween 2013. I, personally, felt that I would regret not having her, so I snagged her. But I am sure you'd find at least one person who felt she wasn't worth it.

    I agree

    She is limited and at leas equal to Otto (instead of the bus, kids generate cash). I would go for Brandie if you cant get both. Otto is permanent and you can get him at any time.

    It is a conundrum.
    Another piece of the equation is that I obviously won't be speeding up the Spuckler kids. Even if the animation is amusing, it's a long time to wait for the investment to pay off.

    if you're saving donuts for free then definitely don't spend them all on Brandine, are you nuts

    she doesn't come with a building, doesn't' talk, and you won't see her for 9 months if you want the kids

    Of course shes a good buy, in 90 days u can get 3 more FREE characters. And maybe in time she will be able to birth more little spucklers.

    I decided to buy her. Not only is she limited time, I think it lends a little bit of reality and fun to the game waiting for her to give birth. She's not going to disappear during her pregnancies if she's walking around town smoking. Finally, she's a woman, and Springfield needs more of a female presence!

    I'm having the same problem. I don't buy donuts so what I really need is more buildings but it takes so long to save up.
    I love my computer...all my friends live in it
