A BEATLES' HARD-DIE'S SITE


Monopoly - The Beatles Collector's Edition Is Launched


One of the world's most popular board games, Monopoly, has been customised to celebrate the history and music of The Beatles. No longer are there hotels and houses, but listening parties and concerts; the hat, the iron, the shoe and other regular playing tokens are replaced with The Walrus, Here Comes the Sun, Maxwell's Silver Hammer, Strawberry Fields, Octopus's Garden, and Rocky Raccoon. Each throw of the dice could take you to Abbey Road, a Ticket To Ride, or on a Magical Mystery Tour...

Although I would buy this in a second, it is ridiculous how many Monopoly versions they can keep spitting out to us. I personally own 5 different kinds.
