UPDATE 10PM EST: Looks like they also pushed a patch. You should now see a Pop Up “Challenge Quest” triggered by Peter for when you complete all the True Fan Challenges so you can Claim the Mecha Astley.
Hey there Toady Roadies!
I was anticipating the 3rd and Final Challenge to drop tonight. It has not yet. I am terribly tired and a lot going on first thing in the morning, so I will not be staying up any later to continue to wait for it. No verification from TinyCo either that it will hit tonight (it is only just 9PM their time).
If it does hit in the middle of the night (as it is Midnight Eastern Time), I will update all I can later. Otherwise, just watch out for any ! over Peter that is out of the ordinary.
UPDATE 9/15: Here is the True Fan Challenge Part 3 Details…
Keep in mind that again, these WILL be a Challenge. Clams may be required to complete them depending on where YOU are at in the game progression. These will only show up if you have made an In App Purchase before. They also usually require trigger points… like being in Phase 6 content for this one (WeirderPalooza Part 1).
Peter will have a ! above his head to start the Challenge. Tapping on it or ANY of the “GO” options from the Challenge Pop Ups will start the 24hr Timer for the Challenge. So be careful.
Now for the breakdown…
HAVE RICK ATTACK MECHA ASTLEY 4 TIMES
This one will require Rick of course. This can be done easily in 24hrs, even if Mecha Astley goes into Cool Down. Just use my tip for Attacking the Mecha Astley before he goes into Cool Down to save you 4hrs of time.
This is just a 4hr Attack. Nothing more. So you will need 16hrs to complete it.
HAVE GREASED UP DEAF GUY TOUCH ALL THE CANDY
This one will be tricky as it WILL require you to have Greased Up Deaf Guy. This is a 12hr Task on Level 2 and will require Mort available as he is the one that chases Greased Up Deaf Guy during this task.
As it it a 12hr Task, you will want to get started on it as soon as possible so you don’t have to cut it too close.
DO THE PETERPALOOZA ENCORE AGAIN
As this one is going to be you COMPLETELY defeating the Mecha Astley twice, I would say unless you have a hole lot of luck on your hands and both Tricia and Weird Al… this one is gonna cost you some Clams to complete.
But again, this relies on where YOU are on the Mecha Astley battles. If he is on the lower 1X-3X Level, you will be able to take him down twice just fine in a short amount of time. If he is on 5X Level, expect to possibly use some Clams as the quickest time to take him down with all 4 will be 12hrs. You can try the Pre-Attacks to bypass Clams and “hit him while he is in Cool Down” to get a jump start on it. You will have to be RIGHT on top of it.
EXAMPLE ON 5X…
12hrs
Rockstar Peter & Rick Astley & Tricia Takagaga & Weird Al: Attack 3 Times with Peter- Rick- Tricia for 18 Damage, Attack 1 Time with Weird Al for 3 Damage / 21 Damage Total
OR 1 of the Following Options
Rockstar Peter & Rick Astley & Weird Al: Attack 3 Times Each/ 21 Damage Total
Rockstar Peter & Tricia Takagaga & Weird Al: Attack 3 Times Each/ 21 Damage Total
Rick Astley & Tricia Takagaga Weird Al: Attack 3 Times Each/ 21 Damage Total
Just before he is completely defeated again, set at least 2 of them to Attack so they will be knocking him down in Cool Down. If you can keep Weird Al Attacking during Cool Down, that will be best. This should buy you enough time to completely take him down before 24hrs and save you spending Clams.
So Attack him with 3 or 4 if you can and take him down in 12hrs, then leave 2 or 3 to continue the Attack (definitely Al if you can) and as soon as he is back, clear those 2 or 3 waiting and that will cut 4hrs off the timer and hopefully give you that 4hrs of wiggle room to get it done and get the Encore Concert done (if that is not ready to go already).
Side Note: This is WORST case scenario. As the 2 Mecha Defeats have been a part of the Encores since Phase 6 launched, this part may be already long done and all you have to to is start the Encore. ANY Mecha Defeats before now would have counted towards those 2 Mecha Defeat Encores. You just can’t have completed it BEFORE triggering this task or you have to do two Mecha Defeats again. (Or just one more if one is already checked off.)
DO TWO DANCE SIDESHOWS
The Dance Shows only take 6hrs each, so this one should be easy to pass off in 12hrs. You just need to have one of the 3 Characters that use it available to send on a Dance Show and the 30 Microphones Total required. Defeating a Mecha Astley on 5X will give you enough as it drops 26 each time on 5X. 4X gives you 20.
Using this in unison with the Attacks required to complete the Challenge will help too.
TRUE FAN CHALLENGE PART 3 PRIZE
The 3rd True Fan Challenge Prize is a replica of the Festival Merch Kiosk. Once I have the Challenge Complete, I will post more stats on the Prize.
Festival Merch Kiosk (Decoration): Sits on a 5×5 base. Not currently animated.
GRAND PRIZE
As we all have pretty much figured out by now, the Grand Prize is the Mecha Astley.
I am still working on the Challenge myself and waiting for him to come out of Cool Down. Once complete, I will Update if he is a stationary Decoration or a Walking Decoration.
UPDATED 9/15 7PM EST: I completed the Challenge and am now waiting to be rewarded the Mecha Astley. In the past, they provided the Grand Prize at the end of the Event. I am double checking that as I am getting mixed info. Will report once completely verified.
UPDATE 10PM EST: Looks like they also pushed a patch. You should now see a Pop Up “Challenge Quest” for when you complete all the True Fan Challenges so you can Claim the Mecha Astley.
Mecha Astley (Decoration): Sits on a 2×2 base. Currently not animated.
MY TIPS
UPDATE 530PM EST: Here are some of my tips since many have been asking for it.
If you have NOT triggered the Challenge, get pre-started on it to pass it. Get GUDG unlocked, to Level 2, and his task started. Start a Dance Show but don’t clear the check mark when it completes. Take down Mecha Astley at least once fully setting up BEFORE he goes down with Rick and as many others as you can Attacking during the Cool Down (ONLY if you are on the higher levels, just him if on lowers and only a few hits needed). THEN start the Challenge.
Once started, clear the Dance Show and immediately start another one. If GUDG is ready, clear his task… if not then wait until he is done and clear him. Clear Rick’s Cool Down Attack and then start him again (others too if on higher levels). This way all that you will have left is one more Dance Show, 3 more Rick Attacks, one more defeat on the Mecha, then the Encore if you aren’t already set up to perform it.
Keep in mind if you still need another Rick Attack and Mecha is about to go down, send Rick to Attack him in cool down BEFORE he is defeated and you’ll still get those 4hrs saved and the task checked off.
This Final Challenge really does look possible depending on where YOU are in the game. For me, it worked out just fine as I already had some Characters Attacking him in Cool Down, so I was able to take him down again quickly and can perform the PeterPalooza Encore shortly.
Are you taking a go at this Challenge? If so, where are you on it? Any other tips you can suggest to other Players? Let us know.

I triggered the challenge too early – before getting gudg last night. Since I just got gudg tonight it would have been tough to complete anyway. Oh well. I did just get Ricardo and currently in 1st in my viral video group w 56. Second has 50 and 3rd only 37. Some I’m feeling pretty good I’ll be able to get stoned stewie. I had just focused on gudg and viral videos – and didn’t complete any of the recent quest lines. Much rather have the characters than the coins.

For some reason I got 2 Mecha Astleys when I finished the final ‘True Fan Challenge’, one when after I placed the Festival Merch Kiosk, and the other from a quest I got from Peter saying I’d finished all 3 challenges and had won the grand prize.

I messed up, but lucked out. I accidentally triggered the task because TC kept splash screening me with the challenge everytime I entered the game. I had to get one more pair of shorts for GUDG and was about 4 hours away from collection. So had to speed buy shorts (8 clams). So now hew was wandering town. Then had to waste 8 hours double tasking him on his 4hr task to earn enough for level 2. Have just over 30 minutes between task completion for GUDG and cutoff time for challenge due to unscheduled nap. (I should really put some characters in storage because it takes 15-20 minutes sometimes when I pop in to collect and retask.)

Think this challenge is a lot easier than any of the previous 2. I’m already sending Al and Rick to defeat Mecha every 4 hours and doing the dance shows every 6 to collect the Virals and since GUDG is basically now wandering around with nothing to do i sent him on his task and did a 2 minute encore with Brian. Just started the second Dance Show and the third Mecha Attack so i’ll be done with this challenge early tomorrow…. And i dont even want or need mecha Astley… In fact most of the prizes/buildings/characters from this event will sit in storage anyway once its over. All i’m interested in now is winning BTS and since i just hit 100 virals and my closest rival is at 33 i think its in the bag 😉

You’re on the wrong site, the Millionaire Club is the Tips site and they stopped doing it when one of the site’s admins left, they’ve also stopped posting walkthroughs and such, just posting the FAQ copied from the game.
