Thoughts on the Blarg Alien, Huts, or Thanksgiving Table? Will you be spending the donuts to bring it to your Springfield? Did you already? Why or why not? Where have you placed it in your town? Design plans? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
And feel free to share some photos of your design plan as well! If you need help (or a refresher) posting photos in the comments, check out this post.
Great combo pickup. Love everything about it!
Bummer that there are no visual tasks at the table, as it lines up perfectly with the Stonecutters and Puritan Flanders tables. We could’ve made one huge feast!
Yes, please do spend the sprinkles on Blarg Alien w/Blarg Huts & Blargsgiving Table (why? it’s all central to this Blargsgiving Mini Event, you get a new Character that is voiced & has fun Visual Tasks – look the 👽 even break dances – might as well get the extra help collecting Event Currency!)
EA got an enthusiastic 👍🏻 & Thank You for this Premium Character Combo!
I wasn’t planning necessarily on buying the premium bundle this time, but this seems like a great offer plus the alien is kinda cool in a clumsy sort of way!😁

Goes swell with the NARA (aka The Simpsons version of NASA) and the Rygellians (Kodo, Kang, etc) …. we need more 👽’s in Springfield. ☺️👍🏻
Anyone know what episode this alien came from.
“Thanksgiving of Horror”
Season 31, Episode 8
Ah thank you I missed a couple of episodes from season 31 unfortunately the Thanksgiving of horror being one of them.
Yes he was a no brainer for me, one of the better fremium buys.
For anyone interested the balloon bundle gives 6.5 % bonus for 80 donuts, not bad if you are donut rich.
That is good, for the sake of comparison you’re getting 1% bonus for only 12.3 donuts!

Agreed! As silly as Those Parade Balloons are ….. they do give a generous Bonus % increase.
I got it. Always like alien stuff and have plenty of donuts. And I will pay some real money to get the 2 other items in my Gold Box. Can’t get all the prize track prizes – I just don’t have the $50. I don’t like often paying in “freemium” games, but some is good to support the game. Plus, unlike with other games, EA has allowed me to get a lot for free with donut farming.
Thanks Alissa for all the hard work you do, keeping us updated about the updates!! You are appreciated!!!! I Picked him up. I like the blue pods they look good in my Halloween section which is getting bigger and bigger!! Happy Day Friends and Happy Tappin!!!
I love this alien, the pods, and the table he comes with. Too weird to skip! 😀
I snapped him up. Also put down some real money for donuts to get tokens to clean out my golden box. Then I used my blood (mobile) donuts to clean out all the other boxes. Good times!
Received 1 free token at startup of event. Unfortunately the quest line does not include tokens to earn. Will we be able to obtain free tokens, maybe Thanksgiving Day, before the Gold Box expires?
Aside from the 1 free one, the rest have to be purchased with cash
Ok, I do really enjoy this game and your insights! I’ll get tokens and give the alien some company. Thank you for reply and thank you for all you do, too, even with 2 little ones demanding your time. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!🍁🦃🍽
