So, once you max your toon what do you do with it?
Miss P is getting close (well, sort of!). Just wondering how often folks still bring out the maxed toon to run around and what they usually do with it.

Lady Z got extremely dusty until Law came out. Maxing the HQs was a big letdown for me....yeah, I could go to boss battles anytime, but strangely I didn't...
Therefore I am in no hurry to max her in law. I am a BW 10 now, and I know it's a long road, but I won't be rushing it. I also recently made the decision to work Quigley in sell because he also got dusty once he maxed cash. THEN I made the decision to get most of his merits in the slow district. I enjoy playing him, and I don't want to rush it. He went from HW 28 to 33 in less than a week - TOO fast!! So unless running with friends who insist on invasions, I plan to take it slow. He won't be doing law or fishing, racing, any of that...so when he's done, he's done.
So the answer for me is I don't do anything with my maxed toons. I really should do more boss battles with them - I want to, but there is always another toon to work, I guess.  LOL that's also a reason I don't have many maxed toons....

Right now Thelonious revives his dead trees and flowers every other week or so. I tried fishing on him while playing another toon for a while and got demoralized after a week or so. Chairman could work law, fish, or race but isn't real motivated to do so. I'll play them both on a Friday night if doing CFO parties, or take them to a CCG run. I did participate with them in CCG runs quite routinely until Pony baseball season kicked in here and placed my time and interest elsewhere. I also use them as bodyguards in DL buildings with my baby toons to gag work.
Mostly though I spend my time playing toons who are still working gags or suits. The maxed toons are in retirement so to speak.

Sell them on E-Bay? Nope
I bring my toon out almost daily just to plant the last 8 bean combos and to say hi to folks. Well I'm almost done with maxing shovel, now what?
He has a nice friends list of folks who hang out in Nutty River so he is often my Taxi Toon. (TP for mints/DA's etc.. or for a quick ride to SellHQ, DDL on my toons who don't have TP access)
Often use him to run 2 toons, (quick 4-5 stories, coin mints, office A for those last few bucks or JN's)
Help others max gags on their or my ubers.
Summons invasions, run 2 toons, and park one at home to call invasions in DA, mints. (then CJ to replenish)
Help w/ races for folks working on trophies. (what do you do with 30,000+ tickets, I altF4 alot or race casually, no anvils...)
Help my kids and friends on toontasks, VPs etc... (now that is still lots of fun!)
I rarely play my maxed toon in VP, CJ or CFO, but will bring him for revenge runs or help.
Show up to training runs. (or griefing runs, or Great Races, when is the next one?)
I thought I'd use my keys alot more, but I find it more fun to work on a new or existing toon.
Rarely played toons =
LST (129)
Fritz (20 , HW50)
B'splat (115, RB50), maybe I'll VP and CJ this toon soon
WIP Toons =
QF (HW49, RB48, BW, 66 fish, 26 trophies) will let my wife get the keys...
Black Licorice: 15 laff, TM
Super Zowie: Neglected cash Uber

That about sums it up.
Since Bananaswirl is my only cash uber, I still bring her out for uber CFO. I'll occassionally bring her to a CCG run or a run with friends. I've also been using her to help my little toons some. She has more unites than Ricky and nothing better to use them on. I may advance her a little more in sell, but she can't get laff from it until after my next cash uber is ready.
Princess Ladybug Bageltoes is mostly retired, she still comes out for uber Tuesday VPs when See Green doesn't have her merits. She'll come out occassionally just to say "hi" as well. I don't know if I'll ever grow her up or not.
Ricky is still working Law, so I guess he's not totally maxed yet. But I still bring him out for CFO marathons, training runs, and revenge runs, and of course a flower or a fish now and then. Sometimes I arrange reunions with some of his oldest friends and we get together and play our big ones. Everyone has so many toons now and I hardely ever see or play with them anymore  .

I really enjoyed maxing my toons and I enjoy just as much playing them without needing merits/bucks/notes. I do have a couple of little toons that are still doing merits, Super Dizzy is still doing bucks, and Little Dizzy and McZilla are still doing notes. So I do still have all 3 to do when I'm in the mood. I realized a few weeks ago that my keyed toons were getting dusty so I came up with a schedule:
Monday - Mousewife for VP and CFO, Dizzy for CJ
Tuesday - Miss T. Fied for VP, Dizzy for CFO/CJ
Wednesday - Dizzy does it all
Thursday - Little Dizzy does it all (unless she needs notes)
Friday - McZilla does it all (unless he needs notes)
Saturday/Sunday - I work on getting the merits/bucks/notes that I need and I just boss battle with the toon that suits me at the time. Weekends are for family so I don't do as many boss battles.
If Super Dizzy is CFO ready, I take her instead of whatever toon on my schedule. Same with if LD and McZilla are CJ-ready. Having this schedule insures that I play all of my toons every week.
I often do random runs, which I really enjoy. If I happen to be running past a building on my way to an HQ and someone whispers to me that they need help, I will just stop and do the bldg with them, usually encouraging them to work their gags, calling an invasion if necessary. I typically only help with one building and then I'm back on my way to that HQ.

Princess Boo Boo comes out when Anna Miss cannot VP now, she used to come when I couldn't CFO or VP, but since Anna can now CFO anytime...well, you know.
I'm not totally maxed on either toon...still need to get Anna through Sell...HW43. Both need to start Law...but that will happen when I get motivated enough.
My next up and coming toon Ms. Kitty Hawk is well on her way...VPing now, and soon will be in DDL, so look out CFO, here she comes...back to bux...back to merits....
It's been really nice playing with you guys...thanks.

The Colonel comes out for boss battles, especially for friends and CCG. I never thought I'd ever finish the fishing on him, so he is sort of an unexpected surprise. The Cap mostly fishes, believe it or not.
All my other toons are WIP, as LST so succintly puts it.

I think not.

Hmmm... not close to maxxing out my toons.
I have taken my SELL keyed toons more & more to the CCG and TTF runs lately and sometimes on Random runs to "help" other toons
when
- I need merits on the HW38 Uber.
- I need BUX on the RB39 and RB40 toons.
I really like to help out on Revenge runs....just being able to pull out a toon to help someone when they need it

It IS nice to pull out those maxed toons and play them when the others need merits/bux.
The thing I have a problem with is Princess Boo Boo not having enough jellies....She's got all the good stuff in her cattlelog, but not enough jellies. I guess I need to leave her jumping in DDL for a while....
