Disney Emoji Blitz: Bambi Springtime Clear Event - My Map 3 Box Prize

 

I am happy with getting the Floral Miss Bunny from the Diamond Box at the end of Map 3 in the Bambi Springtime Clear event. It was the only one in the box I did not have and since my Bambi was only Level 1 a duplicate of it wouldn't have been enough to be able to play Map 4 without spending Emoji charges. I probably would have wasted the only 2 Rainbow ones I have (or gems) if I hadn't gotten this emoji, but glad I do not have to and just won't play the rest of this event.
