Ho Ho Ho Holiday Tappers!
Bust out the tinsel and be sure to hang those stockings by the chimney with care because Christmas time is in the air! That’s right my friends, Christmas (and snow, lots and lots of snow) has hit our pocket-sized towns!
This year EA is trying something different, as I’ve laid out in this post, in that Christmas 2018 consists of multi-events. Basically, the Simpson family will host four stories to be told over the course of December with a new story releasing each week. As we’re taken through each story a series of prizes are released to correspond with the theme of the story. For Week 4, Act 4, we’re following a Polar Express tale, as told by Maggie (through Homer), and the prizes we unlock all fit into the visit to the North Pole theme.
So let’s take a look at the final two prizes this week, the Toy Fortress and Greyhound Sleigh…
First up, prize 4, the Toy Fortress AND Land Token

And that’s it my friends, the details on the final two Christmas 2018 prizes!
Up next? Nothing! Congratulations you’ve finished the 2018 Christmas Event! Just relax and enjoy your New Year and wait until the next thing hits TSTO (likely Jan 2nd)
Thoughts on the Toy Fortress? How about on the Greyhound Sleigh? Thoughts on Act 4 prizes? How’d you do with Acts 1-3? What do you think we’ll see next? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
Is there a way to get the Toy Fortress if you did not earn it in the original game?
Unfortunately, not at this time.
I’m surprised no one has mentioned the old Homer costume job where Homer Santa drives the sleigh with all the reindeer dressed as Santa. All 3 in the air is fun.
I got the Toy Fortress on Sunday night and the Greyhound Sleigh on Monday night. I like the look of the Toy Fortress and already started a little design for it in my Christmas village area, I just wish it was a little bigger. I love the Greyhound Sleigh and it has to be one of the best animations from this event or even in the game, I’m glad I got it since I passed on Ms. Claws so I don’t see her sleigh task. I also love that this event gave Santa’s Little Helper not one but two outdoor tasks and his sleigh task is the best of the two.
Toy Fortress and Toy Train are going in Krustyland (need a toddler area (lol) …. but nothing tops the fact Mrs Claus is a lush (lol) and I ♥️ having Crazy Cat Lady in her Shopping Cart Cat Sleigh alongside Marge and Maggie in their Greyhound Sleigh in the air (best Xmas Event ending ever!) 😄👍
🎄⛄🎅🤶
Completed all tasks, got the greyhound sleigh but SLH’s action is still locked. Am I missing something?
Edit; Figured it out. Send Marge & Maggie to drive the sleigh then send SLH to lead it at the same time.
Thanx
Thank you…I knew I could find the answer here before I had to ask it. 😘
Got the Greyhound Sleigh and completed the Marge/Maggie flying task. Really cool animation! However, the Santa’s Little Helper task to “Lead the Greyhound Sleigh” is still greyed out. I am wondering what I missed??
Love the kiddie prizes. They’ll flesh out my small children’s section of itchy & scratchy land.
When is the addicts live year in review going to be posted?
OMG, the prizes, the animations! What a great event. The cat sleigh; the greyhound sleigh; the new stage with 2, count ’em, 2 character animations (or are there more?); an animated snow crook? Wow! A home run from my viewpoint. Congratulations! Now, If only I had managed to spend the donuts to get the cat lady in the cat sleigh; but no ….. it disappeared before I got around to it. Will the opportunity reappear (hope, hope)? Happy holidays all!
The final prizes are really great. I’ve really liked this Event, this last event of the year is clearly better than the first… we end up the year with a wonderful event… I hope 2019 will be a good year… just wanted to thank you for all your work with your team.
I’ve had a blast with this one. It’s worth ploughing through to get to the sleigh. CCL & Marge flying across my screen is just priceless😂. Happy New Year one and all. X
Thanks Alissa! The toy fortress will be nicely paired with Bart Royale’s youngsters fortress 😁
I’ve loved this whole Christmas event.. and I can’t wait to get them all in that sleigh.. the only thing which was weird for me in this event was visiting neighbour’s didn’t earn any money/tokens for the event running.. but the prizes have been cool.. I love that my dedicated Christmas area has tripled in size.. and that I’ve got some awesome buys in out of the chests this time.. I bought all of the religious box so only have the St Bastille to buy which will be down to the last day but I’ll be very happy once I have it finally.. happy days.. so Happy New Year’s and thanks for all the work you guys put in too help out the clueless folks like me.. 😄
