Should I Spend Donuts On Jimbo Jones?

Level 36 is here (woohoo!) and with it comes Jimbo Jones, a premium Toughie to add to your Springfield.  I’m sure you’re asking “Should I Spend Donuts on This?”….well before you hit that confirm button, let’s break down the Pros and Cons of adding this bully to your Springfield.

Jimbojones
Character:
Jimbo Jones
Donut Price: 120 Donuts
Pros:
-Comes with his own 7 part quest when unlocked (you can read the full walkthrough here)
-Premium character pays out 50% more XP & Cash on all Jobs and Task
-Amusing outdoor task, Hacky Sack a Frog.
-Permanent Task using Noise Land Arcade Building.
Cons:
-Expensive.  At 120 Donuts he’s one of the most expensive characters without a building
-He’s not voiced
-After his initial quest he has no real tasks that interact with other characters.
Final:
I’m someone that’s always been in the “buy premium character” camp.  While 120 donuts is steep, and it may take a while to save, I’m a fan of adding Jimbo to your Springfield.  However, if donuts are limited for you you are better off spending less on a character like Arnie Pye (who comes with a helicopter) because you’ll get a bit more out of him.  So, if you have the donuts I say go for it.  But if you’re looking to be smart with your donut purchases I’d say hold off, for now, and take a look at some of the lower cost premium characters.

  1. I just bought jimbo….he is no where???

  2. Why is Jimbo so expensive?

    • EA picks the prices. He’s the same price as The Grumple so it’s not too shabby. Just up to each tapper whether the cost is worth it. I personally love Jimbo in my town.

    • If you are still around and getting notified of comments, he is half price (sort of) fir about twelve more hours.
