Level 42 has arrived in Springfield! And with it comes a fan favorite Lampwick & the Rocket Car, a really awesome decoration for your Springfield! Now I know you may be trying to decide of this former bum and his Rocket Car are worth YOUR donuts, but don’t sweat it! We’re here to tell you what’s worth the donuts and what you might want to hold off on.
Wondering if you should add Lampwick to YOUR Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this artistic genius to YOUR Springfield!
Building/Decoration: Rocket Car
Character: Lampwick
Donut Price: 120 donuts
Dimensions: 8×3
Bonus: 2.00% on all Cash and XP
Conform-O-Meter: Vanity +1200
Pros:
-Comes with a quest line
-Premium character earns 50% more on all cash and xp than a freemium character
-A sweet bonus on all cash and XP (2%)
-Comes with a Rocket Car, has a great animation with flames when tapped!
-Earn 6 donuts back when you complete the Questline
Cons:
-Pricey. 120 (really 114) donuts isn’t the highest item/character combo, but it’s up there.
-Not voiced.
-While the Rocket Car gives a nice 2.00% bonus, it does not earn any cash or XP…so it’s basically another decoration for your town.
Final Thought:
Personally, if you have the donuts to spend, I say go for it. This combo (in my opinion) is AWESOME. I love Lampwick’s questline & his tasks…plus the Rocket Car is frakkin sweet! It’s also great that you’ll get 6 donuts back once you complete the questline, bringing the cost down to 114 donuts. Not to shabby.
Of course in the end it’s your decision, we can only tell you what we would/wouldn’t do…and I can tell you Lampwick was a purchase I made right away! However, this is NOT a Limited-Time Item so take your time with your thought process. Lampwick will still be there in a few weeks. So if you’re on the fence or worried about saving up your donuts relax..there’s no rush to get him.
