Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
It’s that time of the event…time for another fun and exciting prize post! Yes, I know they’re your favorite, don’t even try to deny it. Ok, you can deny it. I think we probably feel the same way about these….but they still must be done! Otherwise, what else would I refer people back to when they ask what something does 6 months from now?

And that’s it my friends, the details on the first round of Act 2 Rise of the Robots Prizes!
Up next? Frink Jr
Thoughts on act 2? How are you doing with the prize track? Thoughts on the prizes? Plans for placement in Springfield? Sound off below!
In general I don’t really like the robot theme at all and for the first time I won’t get any of the premiums. But some of these prizes are great! Chief Knockahomers beeping sound makes me giggle every time :),
Award show enforcement bot is perfect for delivering those golden statues to my Springfield Heights Theatre and Smashius Clay will fit nicely in my E4/gaming area together with the Chocobots and the Superhero Nerds.
Ralph-o-cop and the Robobear? Yeah, well, they will roam my streets endlessly like all those other NPCs I can’t remember where they came from…
I’d trade in a 🤖 that doesn’t do anything for a Testosterone Network Billboard (comprende, EA?) 😂 Seriously, I would like a Testosterone Network Billboard to go with that awesome Robot Rumble Studio! 😀👍🏻
I just found that I can send Ralph-O-Cop and Robot Bear on 4-hour jobs at the airport.
Wohoo, yeah, great! Ralph-O-Cop is now on his way to Panama, Robo-Bear to Soth Africa and little Octoparrot travels to Guatemala! Awesome! Although I have now idea when and where I got those three tickets from to activate those jobs…
The tickets just automatically regenerate over time. So you can keep sending the robots on holiday forever!
I’ve also seen them come up on some one-off tasks that “everyone” can do – can’t remember which ones right now – so yeah, they’re sort of weird “pseudo-decorations” that can do more than regular decorations
What does Smashius Clay do when tapped? I can’t see anything.
I have in my notes that he moved when I tapped him, but I just checked again and he didn’t move. So either something changed, or I imagined it…
I really like robot rumble studio. I am currently working on the third prize.
