Here are ten different versions of the classic Monopoly game, ranging from a collector's edition with gold pieces to I Love Lucy. Whichever Monopoly Game you choose, use the MySimon links below to compare prices from retailers all over the net.
1) Franklin Mint Collector's Monopoly Game
The Franklin Mint Collector's Edition Monopoly is the coolest and most fitting gift for the financially-minded person in your life. With solid gold pieces, sterling silver houses, and a rich, wooden board, every player will feel like a millionaire! The game can be purchased through installments of $50 per month with optional stands, chairs, and glass cover.
2) Monopoly Tycoon
This popular software program is not your typical Monopoly game. Compete against the computer or other players on a network by purchasing businesses, building apartments, parks, utilities, setting price levels, attracting customers, and running your opponents out of business. Be the first to complete a set of specific scenarios to win the game. Very entertaining.
3) Disney Monopoly Game
The Disney Monopoly game is one of my favorites. The much larger playing pieces include Alice, Baboo, Dumbo, Lady and the Tramp, Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White. Cottages and castles have replaced the houses and hotels, while the railroads have been replaced with Alladin's Carpet, Cindarella's Carriage, etc. Scrooge McDuck's portrait graces the front of the play money.
4) Scooby-Doo Monopoly Game
This Scooby-Doo Fright Fest Edition Monopoly game is ghoulishly fun! The zany playing pieces are made up of the entire Scooby-Doo gang and the Mystery Machine. The properties reflect the gang's adventures, which is sure to give entertainment to kids and a sense of nostalgia to adults.
5) Powerpuff Girls Monopoly Game
Anyone with children and cable television can tell you all about the Powerpuff girls. The playing pieces are in full color and include Blossom, Buttercup and Bubbles.
6) I Love Lucy Monopoly Game
This classic Monopoly game is straight from the golden age of television. Each of the properties is a different episode of the I Love Lucy television show. Game pieces are made up of items such as a Vitameatavegamin bottle and Ricky's conga drum. The dice are pink and white for an added touch.
7) Coca-Cola Monopoly Game
All the Coca-Cola fans will get a kick out of this Monopoly game. The board is decked out entirely in red and white with Coca-Cola logos, signs, memorabilia, and more everywhere! I personally drink a Vanilla Coke whenever I play this version with my friends.
8) 1935 First Edition Monopoly Game
Hasbro has released a replica of the very first Monopoly game sold to the public. The simplicity of the box and board are reminiscent of a time when America was coming out of the depression and $200 for passing go was a gold mine [$2,545.84 to be exact].
9) Simpsons Monopoly Game
The Simpsons Monopoly game is one of the funniest Monopoly games of all time. Plunker around the town of Springfield while passing landmarks and attempting to become wealthier than Mr. Burns. A definite favorite for both kids and adults.
10) Peanuts Collector's Edition Monopoly Game
Charlie Brown, Snoopie and the Gang are back in this Peanuts Monopoly Game. The board is perfect for any child or adult who is a fan of the popular series and cartoon by Charles Schulz. The houses and hotels are replaced with Woodstock nests and Snoopie dog houses. Playing pieces include Lucy's Psychiatric Booth, Charlie Brown's football, Schroeder's piano, and more.
