Wondering if you should spend donuts on Drederick Tatum?   Well before you hit that confirm button, lets break down the Pros and Cons of adding Tatum to your Springfield.
Tapped_Out_Drederick_Tatum_character unlock message
Character: Drederick Tatum
Donut Price: 190 Donuts
Pros: 
-Comes with the Coliseum
-Comes with a quest line for Tatum
-He has a tiger
-Earns at a premium rate on all tasks and XP
Cons:
-Expensive
-No 1 hr task

Final Thought: This one is really a toss-up. If you have the extra donuts and want a new building and character I’d say go for it, but if you’re short on donuts save them for another building.

    I got him in the Black history mystery box using my my mystery box token. Cheaper price in the yearbook box though.

    i just got him in the Mystery Box Nr. 7 for 80 Donuts. Considering that he would normally cost 190 Donuts I would say it was a bargain.

    With the current 50 donut rebate, do that change your opinion on grabbing him now?

    I think he does now have a 60m task: I’ve had Tatum since Whacking Day when he/Coliseum was a prize, and he’s had no 60m task until today, when I set everyone off for an hour and Tatum had a new 60m task. It’s called ‘Line Up Endorsement Deals’, not part of any questline. I have a screenshot but I don’t know how to submit. When I started the app today it spent a whole synching and downloading updates so I don’t know if this is a brand new thing, but I can’t find anything about it on the net.
