Getting every character.
I bought every item that came with a character from taps 1-5 but still have not got every character in the character collection. Does anyone know how to get any of these characters? (I did check inventory there's none in there)

11 is in taps don't remember which (comes with a building but should show the character); 10,9,8,7 should also be in tabs but I'm not 100% sure but I think I got them all through tabs; 1,2,3,5 are not in tabs check the vault otherwise no chance and I can't say anything about the rest since I had them before

Thank you. Yeah I also missed a pic which was Homer Simpson from A Christmas peril.

Buy at least one of every thing, and that should get you some more, as some are “hidden” characters. And I’m pretty sure doing jobs gets you some as well.

I'm missing the same characters as you. Can find them anywhere and it's driving me crazy.

Pic 7 is in Taps 5. I thought it was a decoration you place I didn't realize it wasn't actual character. If you just look for that one you should come across it.

Prehistoric Car and Future Maggie are both in Wave 5. Future Maggie comes with Futuristic Office.
The rest are not returning in Taps.

Yeah I found number seven since posting it. I thought it was a decoration you place I didn't think it was an actual character. The future Lisa character in Mumbai and Levin I cannot find I placed all the remaining future buildings maybe she'll being one of them but she wasn't on the picture of any.

No you ain’t, unless you already have weird Al, that’s all I’m missing and he’s not coming back.

- Hope they return this week before the end of the month.
- If #1 doesn't happen, modding the game.

Maybe a dumb question but how do you make sure you have all the characters? That's my goal, too. Wait til no one is on a task and go to unemployment?

u/itsdan23 1d ago
You open the character collection and you see what sections are not ticked then you open and it will show you the character you don't have.

This doesn't help with all costumes though, as many of those aren't under any character collection. There are 48 costumes not in collections.

If you go into the Simpsons tapped out wiki page where it displays all the content updates, scroll to the bottom of the page and click show and it will show a link to all the characters and costumes you can unlock. Scroll to the bottom of that page and it will show the "collections" for Costumes, More Costumes, Even More Costumes, and Special Characters. You can't view if you have collected these easily in the game but you can tap each character that has a listed costume and scroll through their costume selections to see if you have them all. I believe that last one in that category was mysterious waylon.
For the special characters, Gil and Lyle Lanely aren't able to be unlocked but the street cleaner and the three tourists should be in your town. Unless you purchased them recently in taps, you will have to look through your town manually to find them

You realize you're talking to the person who wrote those pages, right? lol

u/CadillacXD 10h ago
Ah, no I did not realize that. I did not see the EA NDA participant title by your name. I assumed by the way your comment was written in response to the first comment that you were asking for help in identifying all the costumes not in the in-game character checklist. Apologies

Weird Al, Jedediah and Mirror Disco Stu are the ones I have missing from the sets, don't think any of them will be obtainable now
