Bluewater Village (TS2) to TS4

Tessa (as a toddler), Lisa and Checo Ramirez (Nordhaven)

Gilbert, Yves (ALIVE!) and Denise Jacquet (Nordhaven)

Melody (as a child), Stephen and Wanda Tinker (Nordhaven)

Jodie and Jason Larson (no house yet), Chester Gieke (no house yet, needs a pet) and Florence Delarossa (Henford-on-Bagley, old sim, I already showed some gameplay)

The Tinkers, aka my favorite household.

Melody grew up and moved to college, only to then show up at the toy store and act confused, as if it wasn't the same family store she worked at.

Harmony is now toddler, and she's a cutie.

Webster (the dog) is the main breadwinner of the family. His recent bonuses in showbiz career reached ~15k simoleons - before that, the family savings were only around 3k.

idk why I like this family so much. By all accounts, they should be boring, but they're not.

Date night for Gavin Newson and Ivy Copur. 💕

Stephen Tinker: "I LOVE THIS SONG!" Jared Starchild: "Easy there bro" Bartender: (Lmao)

The place was packed and the two had a great date. So great that Ivy gave Gavin a...

telescope (Only in the Sims, I swear😅)

For the uninitiated, all of the Movie Hangout build buy descriptions are synopses of a Sims-verse American Pickers parody called Plumbob Pickers were Stephen Tinker and Checo Ramirez from Bluewater Village travel to Sims 3 towns looking for antiques and interacting with Sims 3 premades. It’s really funny and charming and has both actual continuity throughout as well niche Sims lore references, even following up on certain plot threads from The Sims 2 and 3.

I reread them all on the Sims wiki recently because I randomly remembered them and it’s actually wild how good they are for a game that doesn’t even have individual sim bios and is generally just super lazy with the lore. Why is the best lore The Sims 4 ever made in a damn stuff pack?? Who on the Sims team popped off so hard with these I need to know??

(I put the rest bellow the cut so you don’t have to find them all individually on the wiki like I did lol)

Here is Stephen Tinker from bluewater village!

I made an effort to look at the Tinker family's personalities, likes and dislikes, bios etc. for this makeover. And I kept some of the house's original wallpapers and furniture if I could (aka if it wasn't too ugly).

Stephen Tinker's bio claims that he was the mascot for his college's football team hence the football memorabilia.

I kept the dark, modern theme for Melody's room and since it's suggested she's an artist her room has some hand made paintings. She has high interest in sci-fi so she got some alien posters.

She's active so she has a basket ball and gym equipment in her room.

The home gym of the original house turned into a art studio for Melody.

Both Stephen and Wanda want more kids so they have a spacious nursery.

Wanda got a job in the culinary career. She'll be moving to bigger and better things soon, but for now there just aren't many restaurants in the area, so she's stuck with fast food hot dogs. She also brought Cati Roche home from work. They're eating mac and cheese that Melody cooked (and wants to cook all the time these days.)

"Greetings, Mr. Headmaster."

"Hello, Mr. Tinker. My, what a nice house you have!"

"Thanks. My parents worked hard for it."

"Good good... I like how colorful everything is. And young Melody's essay on Jupiter's moons was quite well-researched and creative."

Wanda cooked dinner, and the headmaster was too busy enjoying it to care about conversation. Melody got in.

"Stephen, my feet are killing me from work, carry me to bed!"

"Oof! Can I do what I like to you when we get there?"

"Please do."
