    And every other "franchise" in existence. Golden Girls for one, I think.

    I'm happy for it, just not the cost. I'll get this one.

    So this has been out of stock since last night… I wonder if there was an influx of orders after it was posted here, or if it was meant to be a placeholder and they deactivated it once they started having orders come in.
    I was hoping it would be revealed today with pre-orders going up on Amazon, but alas not. Hoping this isn’t just an Australian release, because that price tag is steep. Want to order a couple copies for different family member households

    I'm just going to put this on the list of things that I never thought I'd see in my lifetime.






    And I want it.

    That's great that they reference actual episodes.

    Also interesting how Dinobot appears directly based on the MP. You can see he's a little thicker around the back and can barely make out the bumps on the backs of his arms where his beast mode feet go, on top of the rounded tips of his tail weapon.

    MP Rattrap and Waspinator confirmed (I wish)

    BTW the same applies to Megatron (look at the t-rex hand in bot mode) and even BA (her head is more squished like the MP).
    Considering the lines on Primal's calf, it may be the same for him and Cheetor as well at this point.

    I managed to read the text before my mind processed the blue sarcasm and it was enough time for excitement to slip in. I hate you now (not really, but I'm now sad).

    Never in my life would I have thought to ask for a Beast Wars themed monopoly. Never mind a Beast Wars themed monopoly with unique Beast Wars themed mechanics. And yet the mighty lords of Hasbro have gifted us with one anyway. And I am incredibly grateful. 

    I love how not only do they refernece locations and moments from specific episodes, but also integrated new rules based off of a core plot point of the show. With energy costs being higher for players in robot mode due to energon build up. That is an amazing detail to add if you ask me.

    In spite of my previous criticisms I really was excited before, but now the excitement has increased significantly. The price doesn't hurt either.

    The tokens are amazing, everything about this says it was made with love for the show/toys.

    I am once again impressed. I didn’t think they’d do anything more with it than give Monopoly a BW paint job.

    Between them and the Golden Disk, I’m more tempted to buy this now. It’s a cheaper alternative for people who skipped the Kingdom Ark but might want a Disk at some point.

    This looks like a fun twist. Its been years since i've played Monopoly. Let the double wave of nostalgia wash over me.
