Ultimate James Bond Edition Monopoly - Sneak
Peak
2nd July 2008
Back in July 2006, USAOPOLY released a '007
Collectors Edition'
of the popular board game Monopoly to tie-in with the release
of "Casino Royale". With Daniel Craig's next adventure as James
Bond looming, the company is back with an 'Ultimate James
Bond Edition'. What's the big difference? The silly use of film titles
on the
board in the first version have been replaced with locations
from the film series - including the upcoming
22nd adventure.
The set will include tiles for 51 different
locations from the films, from "Dr
No" to "Quantum
of Solace", giving players over
one billion different ways to set up the board. The board comes
complete with removable and reusable labels, so you can give
the game a new spin anytime by selecting which 22 property squares
to feature.
Instead of the traditional houses and hotels,
007 themed properties can now be equipped with Guards and Security
Systems in incrementally
increase their value. The four trains squares are also from the
Bond Universe: Orient Express (From Russia With Love), Janus’ Armored
Train, Octopussy’s
Train (Octopussy), Pendolino Train (Casino Royale). The cards
have been renamed Bond Allies and Bond Enemies, and players use
a decoder to decipher the directives. Even the board design has
had an overhaul, now sporting the iconic
gun
barrel in black along
with images from the films screened in the background.
Made by USAOPOLY under license from Hasbro Properties
Group, this edition features six new collectible pewter
tokens: Moonraker
Shuttle, Octopus, Casino Royale Poker Chip, Zorin’s
Airship, Q-Boat, and the Moon Buggy.
Monopoly "Ultimate James Bond" Edition is expected
to hit stores in September 2008.
