Hey there, Team Santa!
Come with me if you want to live! That’s the ticket! WINTER IS COMING! Well, it is already in our games now. Snow flurries are blowing all over the place. The question is does it bring a happy feeling or just a lot of frost bite? Lol.
The Raid to the North Pole event is now live and running in our Quahogs. With it, we see the return of a character from last Christmas into our silly lil games… like Santa Claus! For new players who weren’t playing last year… you can now collect Materials and unlock him!
Let’s take a look at what Santa Claus can do in our silly lil games.
Santa Claus is a Character originally added during the Miracle on Spooner Street 2014 Event and brought back for Raid to the North Pole. For Raid to the North Pole… as with (almost) all Characters in TQFS in order to unlock him you’ll have to collect lots of STUFF.
First though, you had to purchase the Gold Gift Box for 250 
Coins and place it in your town.
As soon as the Gold Gift Box is finished, you will see Santa outside. Tapping on his Lock Icon would show you the Materials you needed to collect to bring him into the game.
Requires
3 Chocolate Chip Cookies (Common): Peter Cook Disgusting Vegetables OR Quagmire Let the Gerbil Loose
4 Glasses of Milk (Uncommon): Jerome Host Happy Hour OR Chris Hang Out at Home OR Joe Go Undercover
3 Candy Canes (Common): Bruce Sing Christmas Carols OR Mort Restock Ipecac Syrup
He does come with a Questline, Santa for Hire, more on that in a later post.
Santa Claus does come with a complete set of Tasks! Tasks that will help you earn $$$ & XP. He also has an “Alternate Task” to help earn items like 
Magic Hats, 
Snowflake Medals, &
Lights by doing Battle in the Holiday Humma. (See Main Event Post for more details)
Let’s take a look at some of Santa Claus’ tasks:

IS HE VOICED?
He only says one thing, sadly…
“Ho ho ho!”
And there you have it, the complete breakdown for everyone’s favourite Gift Giver, Santa Claus.
What do you think of Santa Claus? Did you unlock him yet? Got him from last year? If so, what do you think of his tasks? Have a favourite? If not, how close are you? Let us know!

I had Santa from last year…but found he went missing when this event started. Contacted Tiny Co and they put him back in for me. Now I went to put out all my Xmas deco from last year I stored in inventory and it all disappeared on me as well. Over 75 Xmas decos disappeared. 😦 Guess I will have to put in another ticket. Not a big deal. Not like they gave any advantage to the players who got Santa last year anyway. Kinda irks me that I worked so hard to get it last year (none of my friends were able to complete the missions to get him) and Tiny Co just essentially gives him away for 250 coin and a couple of easy item grabs. Took my wife less than 48 hours to get him. Took me a Month last year and I barely got it. Sometimes I wish Tiny Co gave more deference to hardcore fans who work hard to get characters by giving that character some function in future challenges where they apply? Great example was how at Halloween I had Megs Costume and everyone elses from last year….yet my Meg with a Costume took actually longer to get items than a person that had just regular un costumed Meg etc. No advantage to having a character or costume from the year before when an event starts again. Seems like a no brainer to me…..

That seems really odd they would just go. Are you sure they are not “relocated” in a different area? I found a lot of my Inventory items are “scattered”. A large group in one section, but then odds and ends scattered throughout. I would suggest to use the “ALL” tab to see if you can find them. Go slow, it is easy to overlook a lot of them. I know it took me a bit to relocate all of mine.

Thanks for the info. it was the upgrade to level 4 task that popped up, although it didn’t pop up immediately after raid pt. 10. It only came up the next time I opened the game.

I saw it to, but the strange thing is that when Santa levels up you can see his Facespace and his friends. Also he’s in the charactercount. I got 21 visible characters + Santa ho is invisible. Maybe one of the familyguyaddictsbloggers can directly contact Tinyco for an answer and/or a solution?
(I will post this again in the issue toppic)

He’s friends with Jesus and on his page… so if you have Jesus you can use him to get to the FaceSpace and find him. Otherwise I’ve requested if they’ll add him back to main home page for easier location.

He’s not there anymore. He was only temporary in there. Sending request and asking if they’re going to put him back.

I’m hoping it means they’re gonna put him in another character reward group. He was in one, but with characters I don’t think will be rewarded this year so they’ll hopefully put him with some characters that can then earn us clams.
