"Like many players I'd be very happy seeing Maggie, but I can't help but be skeptical. Too many clues, like they're baiting us. The App Icon, the trophy for Act 3, the splash screen. It just seems odd to make a core family member a time-limited character, meaning new players won't be able to get her after the event.

I'm thinking they'll bait us with this, and then have a "New years baby" event. Unless of course, the wiki guys have hacked the files and found her already."

Sideshow Bob was unlocked for free during the Terwilligers 2015 Event upon building the Outdoor Opera Stage which was unlocked during the main quest line for Act 2, once the event ended player that didn't get him, because either it was beyond their reach (quest line required Mrs. Krabappel a level 22 gameplay character) or because they started playing after the event, got another way to obtain Bob, but they aren't able to get the Opera stage anymore, meaning they cannot send Bob to "Perform at the Opera".

The spoilers I saw says she will be free, if that's so, then she can became a character "à la Bob". Given for free in the event following the main questline and with some kind of event-exclusive decoration or building and then enable players who didn't get her to obtain her with some other kind of method once the event is over. Like Bob she is a very important character (even more that Bob, IMHO), so this method is something I think will make most players happy.
