Rest in pieces: Hasbro to replace a classic Monopoly game token



“The tokens are one of the most iconic parts of the Monopoly game and we know that people are emotionally tied to their favorite one,” Eric Nyman, senior vice president and global brand leader for Hasbro told the Daily Mail. “When we decided to replace one of the tokens in the game, we knew we had to involve our fans in the process. We can’t wait to see which iconic piece will ‘go to jail’ and which new token the fans will choose to become part of one of the world’s most popular games.”
The choices for the replacement piece include a helicopter, a diamond ring, a robot, a cat and a guitar.

One of these is getting the axe...

Monopoly is a shitty game anyway. Hasbro should retire every piece and the board too, and replace it all with something like Settlers of Catan.

Meh.
I've gotten so used to them at this point I think it's criminal to change them.
Just add if you want to. What, not enough property to pieces? Big fucking deal. Niggers gotta rent, so should board pieces.

So yeah... I can't really get worked up over Hasbro changing monopoly pieces, since we have our own version sof the game over her ein Jewrope. Also, Hasbro already whored their game out to pretty much every franchise that would deposit its jewgold all over its box.

where's that monocled potato when you need it

It;s going to be the wedding ring, because of gay marriage.

Next, the mustached monopoly dude will be replaced with a genderqueer drag queen.
