USAopoly continues to mash up the popular board game Monopoly with other famous brands, creating two-headed cash cows of fan service, like this World of Warcraft Collector’s Edition. I wouldn’t be surprised if they came up with Monopoly x Tekken x Street Fighter. Or Monopoly x Taken.
As you might expect, all the things that can be WoWified have been WoWified. You can own Ogrimmar and Stormwind, get money from goblins and use familiar objects – the Corehound Pup, Murky, Doomhammer, Hearthstone, Mechagnome and Flight Path Boot – as tokens. The only disappointment here is that it still uses paper money. It would’ve been more awesome if it had copper, silver and gold coins instead.
You can order the Monopoly: World of Warcraft Collector’s Edition from ThinkGeek or Amazon for $40 (USD). Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to pitch Taken X Street Fighter to Capcom.
