The following is a list of game boards of the Parker Brothers/Hasbro board game Monopoly adhering to a particular theme or particular locale in the United States. Lists for other regions can be found here. The game is licensed in 103 countries and printed in 37 languages. It is estimated that more than 250 million Monopoly games have been sold and that the game has been played by billions of people.[1]
Game description: This is a reproduction of a 1935 Monopoly set (specifically the Deluxe Edition #9). The board has the imprint "1933, Chas B. Darrow" in the Jail corner, and the Parker Brothers signature in the Go corner. Many of the graphics are the same, though the icon for Community Chest had not been designed. The Income Tax space is also Pay 10% or $300, instead of the later Pay 10% or $200. Property values are omitted from the board (they were not printed on the original) – a Banker's Rate Card is included with those values, as well as Mortgage values, and the required interest and repayment rates if a property is mortgaged. The property, Chance and Community Chest cards are all reprints from the 1935 edition, and the latter two types feature artwork that was replaced after the development of the more familiar Uncle Pennybags/Mr. Monopoly figure, and had not been seen since 1935. Some boards came with two packs of currency, instead of the usual one. The dice are a standard black pips on white dice, and the houses and hotels are both wooden.
Tokens: A lantern, an iron, a thimble, a rocking horse, a purse, a battleship, a cannon, a tophat, a shoe and a car.
Other features: Some of the cards feature instructions that were changed after 1935, such as "A collection has been taken up and everyone must donate 10% of his holdings to you (cash)", and "We're off the Gold Standard, collect $50."
Game description: This is an expanded edition of the classic game. The larger board encompasses 9 new properties (one for each Color Group and one new Utility) and three new spaces (AUCTION, BUS TICKET and BIRTHDAY GIFT). The gameplay is expedited by inclusion of a third Speed Die (which adds to or affects movement, or awards bonuses) and by an additional deck of 16 Bus Ticket cards (which allow forward movement to any space on the side currently occupied by a player's token; 3 of the cards also negate Tickets held by players by having them expire). It is also enhanced by the inclusion of 8 Skyscrapers (which can be built on full monopolies after Hotels are erected) and 4 Train Depots (which double the rent values of the Railroad spaces).
Tokens: The current group of eleven standard tokens are included (cannon, boot, thimble, wheelbarrow, car, horse and rider, dog, hat, battleship, iron and money bag).
Other features: Because of the additional properties, the gameboard is approx. 50% bigger, and the set includes grey-colored $1000 bills. Players start the game with $2500 (adding a $1000 bill to the standard $1500 distribution in the regular game). In addition, gameplay allows players to build Houses and Hotels on a Color Group if they have a Majority Ownership (own all but one of the properties in the Group), but Skyscrapers can only be built on a full Monopoly (owning all the properties in the given Group).
Game description: This is a reproduction of a 1957 board and Monopoly set. It uses the standard U.S. Atlantic City properties. The set comes in a wooden case, with a lid that slides off, and holds the board, with compartments for the cards, tokens and paper money. A brief history of the game is reprinted inside the lid. The houses and hotels are similarly made of wood, and come in the original green for houses and red for hotels.
Tokens: Racecar, dog, top hat, thimble, locomotive and shoe.
Other features: Slats cut in the box's wooden compartment dividers allow for storage of money by denomination during game play. This game was released as part of a series of Parker Brothers Nostalgia Games, and was exclusive to Target until the line was discontinued in 2005. Other retailers (such as Barnes and Noble Booksellers) bought up the remaining stock for sale. Target replaced the product line with the Hasbro Library series.
Game description: This edition focuses solely on James Bond movies, though the three non-Eon versions have been omitted. The only property on the board that is not a movie is 007 Assignment; the twenty-first movie, the 2006 Casino Royale is included. The Chance and Community Chest spaces have been replaced by: Bond Women and Bond Villains. There is a different colour photo on top of each card. The railways have been replaced by: Aston Martin DB5, Mustang, Lotus Esprit and Aston Martin DBS. The Luxury tax space has been replaced by Casino Tax.
Tokens: 007 logo, Aston Martin DBS, Lotus Esprit sub, BD-5J, Rosa Klebb's Shoe and Oddjob's Hat.
Issuedthrough: Not sold to the public. This was a limited release used by the company as a promotional prize to its financial advisors.
Game description: Only 2000 games were ever produced, the minimum run allowed at the time by USAopoly. The game was distributed in the year 2000 by the American Express Funds Company to its captive network of financial advisors. The intent was to reward advisors who sold a high volume of American Express Funds and to encourage other advisors to increase their sales of AXP funds. The game was designed so that the advisors could also give the game to their clients or use it as a sales tool to introduce AXP funds. The board was populated by various AXP Mutual Funds, with the places of Boardwalk and Park Place taken by AXP New Dimensions and AXP Growth, two of the company's best performing funds at the time. Because securities are a regulated industry, the game had to meet NASD legal requirements, which required careful wording of everything to avoid misleading investors. In 2005, American Express Financial Advisors was spun off from its parent company, American Express, Inc. It is now Ameriprise Financial, Inc. and the AXP Funds Company is now RiverSource Funds.
Tokens: To reduce costs, the traditional pewter tokens were used.
Other features: Chance and Community Chest cards were replaced due to legal concerns to Service and Planning Cards. A package of 32 Asset Allocations 12 Comprehensive Plans were also included.
Game description: The Beatles Collector's Edition replaces all normal properties with Beatles albums and other points of interest, and includes every single known album ever produced by The Beatles, listed in chronological order from their release dates. It also includes special Fabs versions of the pewter tokens. Many other aspects of the game are changed. For example, the railroads are concert tickets, chance and community chest are The Fab Four and Beatlemania, the houses (white) and hotels (black) are listening parties and concerts, and money is called love, a reference to All You Need Is Love.
Tokens: An octopus (Octopus's Garden), a walrus (I Am The Walrus), a strawberry (Strawberry Fields Forever), a raccoon (Rocky Raccoon), the sun (Here Comes The Sun), and a hammer (Maxwell's Silver Hammer)
Game description: This was a special edition to capitalize on the dot Com craze of the late 1990s. The properties feature the logos of many Internet companies, including Yahoo!, E*TRADE, eBay and Priceline.com. Currency was changed so that it was denominated in millions of dollars; the dark purple properties sold at $60 million each, and the dark blue properties sold at $350 million and $400 million. Community Chest became Download and Chance became E-mail Just In! Houses and hotels were changed from their familiar green and red colors to blue and red, and were renamed Households and Offices. The Income Tax space remained fairly similar (10% or $200 million), but the Luxury Tax space became ISP Fee: Pay $75 million. The four railroad spaces became four companies involved in telecommunications: Nokia, MCI Worldcom, Sprint and AT&T. The two utilities became Linux and Sun Microsystems. Trademark disclaimers were made for all participating companies in fine print on the game board itself.
Tokens: Eight pewter tokens were available, plus a special Mr. Monopoly at his computer token that could be used as a game piece, or for a special rule variant. The other eight tokens are: a computer desktop (tower, monitor and keyboard), a pointing hand (such as the icon that appears in many web browsers when the mouse pointer hovers over a hyperlink), a surfboard, a flat panel monitor, a mouse (made to look like a real mouse, instead of a computer mouse), another hand holding an envelope (supposedly representing e-mail), a pixelated arrow cursor and a microchip made to look like a bug.
Other features: This edition introduced an offline rule, for optional use with the Mr. Monopoly at his computer token. This token is moved onto any space that has a Title Deed card whenever any player moves doubles. That space is considered offline, and no rent can be collected for it unless someone rolls doubles again and moves the token, or someone lands on the space and moves the token (bringing the site back online, thus rent can be charged for it again the next time someone lands on the space, provided the special token was not returned there in the meantime).
Game description: This is a special edition sold only in Disney theme parks. The game comes in a tin with a quarter-fold board. Properties have been replaced by various attraction in Disney theme parks around the world. The railroads are replaced with a form of transportation used in each of four Disney parks: The DisneylandMonorail, the Disneyland Paris Train, the Tokyo Disneyland Boat (which is actually used in Tokyo DisneySea), and the Walt Disney WorldBus. Chance and Community Chest have become Wishing Well and Magic Lamp, respectively. Houses became Main Street Buildings, and hotels became Castles (which came in two designs, one modeled after Sleeping Beauty Castle and the other after Cinderella Castle). The money is slightly smaller than the original and are referred to as wishes instead of dollars; however, they are included in the same denominations and colors as the original game. The game also includes a black plastic tray with slots which can be used to hold the banker's wishes in a vertical position.
Tokens: Tokens are pewter and include a Splash Mountain log, a monorail cab, a Mr. Toad's Wild Ride car, an Astro Orbiter rocket, a ship from Tokyo DisneySea, a train locomotive, a Mad Tea Party teacup, and a Haunted Mansion Doom Buggy.

Game description: In December 2006, the Dominick's division of Safeway, Inc. produced a Collector's Edition Monopoly set, honoring the chain's approximately ninety-year history. The game board has been changed to reflect departments within Dominick's supermarkets, with properties such as Grocery Department, Frozen Department, Dairy Department, Health & Beauty Department and Bakery Department. The four railroads became the Commissary, Donna's Distribution, Distribution Center and CPS Warehouse. Community Chest and Chance became Plastic and Paper (bags), respectively, with themes such as "Store Manager caught standing on a milk crate! Pay each player $50 for setting a bad example." The Electric Company and Water Works became Ludwig Dairy and Rancher's Reserve Ranch respectively.

The currency features the Monopoly logo in a banner scroll at the top of every bill, and each uses the Chicago skyline as a full backdrop. The varying denominations each have a different Dominick's corporate logo from the company's history, with the exception of the 20, which uses the logo for the now defunct Omni Superstore, a former Dominick's division.
Game description: This Monopoly edition is based on the Godfather Saga. Deed cards represent properties in New York, Sicily, Miami, Havana, and Nevada.

Game description: In April 2006, Hasbro launched a promotion through their monopoly.com website to select properties for a US version of the Here and Now Edition. The first Here and Now Edition of Monopoly had launched successfully in the UK in 2005. Like the UK edition, the US version has been updated for the twenty-first century, with higher property values and updated scenarios on the Chance cards and Community Chest cards. But unlike the UK edition, properties that appear on the US version were selected by visitors to monopoly.com, choosing one of three landmarks for each of twenty-two US cities. The voting lasted for three weeks. The landmark with the highest vote total per city is displayed on the final board, and the cities that received the most total votes have the highest property values, while those with the lowest total votes received the lowest property values. Thus New York City and Boston, Massachusetts have the dark blue properties, and Cleveland, Ohio and Dallas, Texas have the dark purple properties. The railroads became the four busiest airports in the US: Chicago's O'Hare International, Los Angeles International, New York City's John F. Kennedy International Airport, and Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. The Income Tax space remained the same, though it becomes 10% or $2,000,000, but the Luxury Tax space changed to Interest on Credit Card Debt: Pay $750,000. The Electric Company became Cell Phone Service and the Water Works became Internet Service.
Other features: A two-page document about the voting process and protests by cities which were not included as candidates for the final board is included with the game, particularly that by Atlantic City, New Jersey, which remains the setting of the US Standard Edition and the Mega Edition. Houses and hotels retained their familiar shapes, but became blue and silver plastic, respectively. Similarly, the tops of the Community Chest and Chance cards are no longer yellow and orange, but became blue and silver, respectively.
Game description: This board was released in 2014 and represents The Legend of Zelda video game franchise from Nintendo. The board features images of characters, items and locations from nearly all the Zelda video games. All of the paper currency has been renamed after the Zelda video games' currency Rupees. Properties are locations from the Zelda video games. Water Works is replaced by the Potion Shop and the Electric Company is now a Bomb Shop. The train stations have been changed to Link's methods of transport throughout the various games – Epona, the King of the Red Lions, Link's Loftwing and the Spirit Train. Community Chest have become Treasure Chest while Empty Bottle now represent Chance. The Income Tax is now a Door Fee and the Luxury Tax is now represented by the Mask Merchant.

Game description: This was a numbered, limited edition board. Properties bear the names of actual Looney Tunes cartoons and characters. Currency was denominated as laughs (1 laugh, 5 laughs, 10 laughs, etc.). Orange "What's Up, Doc?" cards replaced Chance, and yellow "That's All Folks!" cards replaced Community Chest. Grey plastic television sets replaced houses, gold movie theaters replaced hotels. Set also comes with a pewter Looney Tunes Trophy which can be awarded to the winner.
Other features: Rule variation: doubles take on extra meanings, or Looney Tunes effects. Extra tasks can be carried out depending on the value of the dice roll (double ones, double twos, etc.).
Game description: This edition is essentially a customized game board sold at Marshall Field's stores in 1997. The board itself consists of locations and items best known at the chain's flagship store (111 North State Street, Chicago, Illinois, USA): the Walnut Room, the English Room, the Tiffany Dome, the Atrium Fountain, etc. The railroads consist of three CTA rapid transit lines and one station. Community Chest, Chance, the Electric Company and Water Works remained unchanged, although the Community Chest and Chance cards were updated for the new property names. Currency bears the Marshall Field's logo and houses and hotels are the standard plastic green and red, respectively.

Schulz; virtually all of the printed text on the box, the game board, the title deed, Chance and Community Chest cards, as well as the currency, is done in a style similar to the style Schulz used in writing out text in word balloons and thought balloons for his characters (this includes the four corner spaces, which rarely change for any licensed Monopoly game set). All of the currency features Snoopy: First Beagle on the Moon for the $1, as a frustrated writer in front of his typewriter for the $5, a golfer for the $10, a Beagle Scout for the $20, dressed in his Attorney outfit for the $50, the World War I flying ace on the $100 and Joe Cool on the $500. Properties are characters and situations from the strip's 50 year history: Peppermint Patty and Marcie are one of the dark purple properties, Schroeder is a light purple property, Suppertime! is a green property, and Flying Ace is one of the dark blue properties. Community Chest was changed to Pitcher's Mound and Chance became Psychiatric Booth, and the texts on their respective cards also reflect the theme. Houses were recolored brown, and have become nests. The Hotels stayed red, but have been renamed Dog Houses (as Snoopy's own dog house was shown to be red). The utilities became Bus Stop and French Café (instead of Electric Company and Water Works) and the tax spaces became No Valentine and Kite-Eating Tree (instead of Luxury Tax and Income Tax, though the spaces retained the usual rates). Railroads are replaced by holidays: Valentine's Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas and Halloween.

Issuedthrough: General release
Game description: This edition of Monopoly was issued to coincide with the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. It features special pewter tokens, money, and deed cards to items featured in the film and its predecessor, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. The Community Chest and Chance cards were replaced with Aztec Gold and Compass cards. Docks and Harbors were used in place of houses and hotels. Cursed Loot replaces the Income Tax space, various ships including the Interceptor, the Black Pearl, and the Flying Dutchman replace the railroads, and Davy Jones' chest and key replace the utilities.

Game description: The Pokémon edition is based on the Pokémon Red and Blue video games, with minor influences from the Pokémonanime. Each color group represents the eight Pokémon Gyms of the Kanto region, and each property represents a particular Pokémon used at the Gym. A player is said to have won the corresponding Gym Badge if they have all of the Pokémon in the gym. Poké Balls are used for the four railroads, while Articuno and Zapdos represents Water Works and the Electric Company, respectively. Gary Oak and Team Rocket represent Income Tax and Luxury Tax, respectively. Players earn Pokédollars (the currency of the games), which feature Ash Ketchum and Pikachu on each denomination. Houses are represented by Pokémon Centers, while Poké Marts take the place of hotels. Professor Oak takes the place of Chance cards, while Trainer Battles (represented by Ash Ketchum and Pikachu) take the place of Community Chest cards.
Other features: An optional set of rules is featured that allow players to take special actions (Pokémon Powers) whenever doubles are rolled in lieu of taking an extra turn. They are as follows: moving to any space on the board (akin to Mewtwo's Teleport), collect an extra 200 Pokédollars (akin to Clefairy's Rest), collecting 50 Pokédollars from every player (akin to Bulbasaur's Leech Seed), drawing a Professor Oak card, drawing a Trainer Battle card, and attacking another Pokémon. When choosing to attack another Pokémon, the player names any Pokémon held by an opponent that is not part of a completed color group (except for Articuno and Zapdos). The player and the property's owner both roll the dice, with the player rolling the higher number keeping control of the Pokémon (any ties result in a re-roll).
Game description: The Pokémon edition is based on the Pokémon Gold and Silver video games, with minor influences from the Pokémonanime. Like the previous edition, players earn Pokédollars, which feature Ash Ketchum and Pikachu on each denomination. Houses and hotels, as before, are represented by Pokémon Centers and Poké Marts. As before, each color group represent the eight Pokémon Gyms and each property represent the particular Pokémon used at the Gym, but are of the Johto region in this game (similarly, Professor Elm and not Professor Oak represents the Chance cards, while Ash Ketchum and Pikachu continue to represent the Community Chest cards, which are simply termed Ash cards in this game). Unlike the previous edition, the Zephyr and Hive Badges, the first two obtained in the video games, take the place of the utilities, while Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Totodile, and Heracross represent the four railroads. Gary Oak and Team Rocket represent Income Tax and Luxury Tax, respectively.
Other features: The same optional rules from the 1999 edition are also featured in this edition. The Pokémon representing some of these powers have changed to reflect the second generation of Pokémon games (Hoppip instead of Mewtwo, Bellossom using Absorb instead of Clefairy using Rest, and Skiploom instead of Bulbasaur). The four Pokémon representing the railroads may not be named in an attack.
Game description: This board was released in 2013 to honor the 20th Anniversary of the Power Rangers franchise. The board features photo images of characters, Zords, vehicles, weapons and locations from nearly every season of the show up to its 20th Anniversary. All of the paper currency features the iconic lightning bolt used in nearly every Power Rangers logo. Properties are Zords, vehicles and locations from the franchise's 20 year history. Water Works is replaced by the Eternal Falls of Aquitar and the Electric Company is now a metaphorical representation of the "Morphin Grid" that powers the Rangers' costumes and abilities. Villains from the show represent the Community Chest while Allies from the show represent Chance. The Income Tax is now a power boost and the Luxury Tax is now represented by a weapons upgrade. The plastic houses and hotels retained their usual shapes, but became red "Zords" and white "Megazords" respectively. The board also includes two traditional white Monopoly dice with black dots.
Tokens: Six zinc collector's tokens are included: Alpha 5, a Power Morpher, the White Ranger Helmet, a Lightning Bolt, the Megazord, and Goldar. Goldar was the winning candidate from a fan voting contest that was conducted on the official Power Rangers Facebook page. The two losing candidates for becoming a token were a pair of Ranger Boots and a Juice Cup.
Other features: A limited edition Power Rangers themed Monopoly dice was also created for use in conjunction with this board, but was offered separately. The dice is black and features both the show logo's iconic yellow lightning bolt and yellow dots as the dice's dots. This dice was given away at San Diego Comic-Con in 2013 and could also be won in a giveaway contest (along with other Power Rangers themed items) that was conducted on the official Power Rangers Facebook page. Later the dice, while previously advertised as being created for Monopoly during its giveaway offerings, would eventually see a retail release with a completely different board game. The dice was included with the game Trivial Pursuit – Power Rangers 20th Anniversary Edition.
Game description: This edition of Monopoly was based on the Cartoon Network series of the same name. The box lid is made of a special reflective foil paper. The game board features locations from the series' fictional setting of The City of Townsville, illustrated with representative artwork. Community Chest and Chance are renamed into Forces of Evil and Hotline, respectively. The four railroads also become City of Townsville locations: Townsville Bank, Pokey Oaks School, The Mayor's Office and The Museum. The utilities are the Power Plant and the Water Tower. All of the currency features the face of The Mayor. This edition also features purple, stackable buildings in place of houses, and pink skyscrapers in place of hotels.
Tokens: Six full color plastic tokens were included: Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup, The Mayor, Ms. Keane and Professor Utonium. In addition three cardboard punchout tokens are available, which can be used as regular playing tokens, or for a special rule variation. The three tokens represent Mojo Jojo, Fuzzy Lumpkins and Sedusa.
Other features: A special, optional set of rules was included for the three villain tokens. When using these rules, the three villains begin the game in Jail. Any of the three villain tokens can be moved from jail onto any property space (owned or unowned). If a villain token is moved onto an unowned property space, players who have enough money for the space can fight for it through rolls of the dice – the player with the highest dice roll wins the right to buy the property at its full printed value. If the villain was moved from jail to an owned property, the villain can prevent the owner from collecting rent. When another player (not the owner) lands on the occupied space, they must roll the dice. If a seven or higher is rolled, the villain is defeated and returned to jail, and no rent is owed. If a six or lower is rolled, the villain continues his/her/its occupation and rent is owed. If the owner lands on an occupied space, they too must roll – seven or higher returns the villain to jail, six or lower lets the villain token stay on that property. No penalty (or forced dice roll) is made if a villain token is moved onto a space already occupied by a player token.
Game description: This is a special edition based on the video game-centric variety show Scott The Woz; it was produced in limited quantities as part of the Scott The Woz Merchandise for Charity Bonanza 2021 fundraiser event. Houses and Hotels have been renamed "Shelves" and "Desks." Custom-themed money is included, renamed as "V-Cards." Community Chest and Chance Cards have been renamed "Kay Swiss' Bank Cards" and "The Topic Wheel Cards," respectively. Text and images have been changed to reflect the theme. There is a slight error on the money. The character Wendy's Employee was intended to be renamed to "The Employee" to avoid copyright. However, the $50 note, which features the character, is misspelled as "The Empolyee."[11]
Tokens: Six unique tokens are included: "The Internet and You" VHS Tape, '08 Stack, Old Phone, Nostalgia Goggles, Party Hat, and Tambourine.
Game description: This anniversary edition came in a silver colored collector's tin with an outer plastic cover. Some copies came with a card, imprinted with a code, which could be used for a special anniversary contest: the chance to win US $15,140, which is the total amount of money included in every U.S. Monopoly game. The board is foil-wrapped, and the center artwork is done in a 1930s-art deco style, as are the playing tokens, houses and hotels. The currency and cards are also imprinted with a special art deco/70th anniversary motif.
Tokens: These are chrome-plated art-deco renderings of standard tokens: A dog, a speedboat, a locomotive, a ladies' high-heeled shoe, a wheelbarrow, an iron, a tophat, a thimble, a sportscar, a sack of money, a cannon and a horse with rider.

Game description: This edition is inspired by the popular Sega video game franchise featuring all of the locations and characters from various games including Sonic Riders and Sonic Heroes. The money in this edition uses Rings (the currency used during the series). The Chance and Community Chest cards are renamed Item Box and Badnik cards, and the houses and hotels are called Bases and Workshops.
Game description: This game is for two to six players and uses the same rules as the normal version of Monopoly. The game's rulebook details an optional quicker way to play using an including coin which depicts Plankton. This is inspired by the hit Nickelodeon animated comedy series created by Stephen Hillenburg.
Tokens: The main playing tokens depict SpongeBob holding a jellyfishing net, Sandy out of her suit, Patrick happily saluting with his hand, Squidward with his hands on his hips, Mr. Krabs standing on a pile of coins with a few in his hand, and Gary wearing shoes. A pewter coin depicting Plankton on both sides is also included for use with a special method of gameplay.
Other features: Instead of the traditional red hotels and green houses made of wood, the game uses red models of the Krusty Krab and yellow models of SpongeBob's Pineapple made of plastic for hotels and houses respectively. The currency for the game is referred to as clams instead of dollars and features the same values and colors of each bill as the classic Monopoly game, but the bills have a SpongeBob-style design, featuring a picture of Mr. Krabs in the center and the number value of the bill on either side of him in the middle of an old ship steering wheel. The top of the box for this game shows the top of SpongeBob's face, and the pupils of his eyes appear to move when the box is tilted.[12][13][14]
Game description: Second in a proposed series of four Star Trek Monopoly editions (see entry on TNG edition above), the game's elements drew heavily from the Original Series' three-season run (but not the Animated Series). The paper currency was made to be different values of Federation Credits, houses became Constitution-class Starships, hotels became Starbases, Community Chest and Chance became Starfleet Orders and Captain's Log, respectively, and the cards were changed to be scenarios from different episodes, complete with the respective episode's Stardate. The Electric Company became Engineering, and the Water Works became Replicator. The four railroads became other Constitution-class Starships: The Constellation, the Intrepid, the Potemkin and the Defiant. The property spaces became aliens or specific adversaries, such as the Gorn, Kor, Nomad, tribbles or the Keeper.
Other features: A numbered Certificate of Authenticity was included, with two signatures. One was from Mr. Monopoly (the renamed Rich Uncle Pennybags), the fictional spokes-character of Monopoly, and the other was from William Shatner. The instructions booklet was titled Prime Directive, and it indicated that this edition was to be the second of four Star Trek themed games intended for release (though only one other, based on The Next Generation, was produced). If all four had been produced, they were intended to be linked in order to form a larger square board. (The instructions still give directions for playing with the boards from the two produced games.) Also included was an additional booklet, the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 Ship's Manifest/Alien Species Identification Guide. The booklet could be flipped so that one side or the other could be read.
Game description: First in a proposed series of four Star Trek Monopoly editions (only two were made; this and the Original Series edition listed below), the game's elements drew heavily from the series' seven-season run. The paper currency was made to be different values of gold-pressed latinum, houses became Galaxy-class Starships, hotels became Starbases, Community Chest and Chance became Starfleet Orders and Captain's Log, respectively, and the cards were changed to reflect scenarios from different episodes, complete with the respective episode's Stardate. The Electric Company became Warp Core, and the Water Works became Replicator. The four railroads became shuttlecraft of the Enterprise NCC-1701-D: Hawking, Magellan, Feynman and Justman. The property spaces became alien races or specific alien adversaries, such as the Ferengi, Bynars, Armus, the Borg or Q.
Other features: A numbered Certificate of Authenticity was included, with two signatures. One was from Rich Uncle Pennybags, the fictional spokes-character of Monopoly, and the other was from Majel Barrett Roddenberry. The instructions booklet was titled Prime Directive, and it indicated that this edition was to be the first of four Star Trek themed games intended for release (though only one other, based on the Original Series, was produced). If all four had been produced, they were intended to be linked in order to form a larger square board. Also included was an additional booklet, the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D Ship's Manifest/Alien Species Identification Guide. The booklet could be flipped so that one side or the other could be read.
Game description: To mark the 20th anniversary of the release of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, two versions of Monopoly were released. One was a numbered, limited edition, which came with special Imperial Credit coins. The other (photographed here), was a general release. Paper currency in both editions are also printed as Imperial Credits – Coruscant, but use Aurebesh on the paper (as well as Arabic numerals – a translation guide to Aurebesh is printed on the back of the rules booklet). The game board features artwork and locations from Episodes IV-VI (the Classic Trilogy). Community Chest becomes Rebel Cards and Chance becomes Imperial Cards. The two tax spaces become Docking Tax (10% or 200 credits) and Bounty (75 credits). Some of the artwork (such as the photo stills used for the Tatooine spaces) comes from the 1997 Special Edition releases of the Classic Trilogy, whereas the illustration for the Imperial Palace comes from original concept artwork.
Other features: Houses and hotels are replaced by X-Wing fighters and Corellian freighters (if the player is using a token of one of the rebels) or by TIE fighters and Star Destroyers (if the player is using the token of one of the Imperials, which includes Boba Fett). However, by standard Monopoly rules, only thirty-two maximum X-Wings/TIE Fighters are allowed to be in use (in place of houses), as well as a maximum of twelve Corellian freighters/Star Destroyers (in place of hotels).
Game description: This edition is essentially a re-release of the Classic Trilogy edition, above. The board game artwork did not change, nor did the Title Deed cards, paper currency, or Rebel/Imperial cards (in place of Community Chest and Chance, respectively). The outer box artwork was changed, and the board in this edition is a quarter fold (as opposed to the half fold version in the Classic Trilogy edition).
Game description: This edition is inspired by the most popular fighting video game series published by Capcom. The gameboard includes characters and fighting arenas covering the series' 25th anniversary. Chance and Community Chest cards are renamed Bonus Stage and Random Select cards, and the houses and hotels are renamed Training Rooms and Dojos.
Game description: To help promote the release of the new Transformers live action film, Hasbro created a special board based on Generation 1 continuity. Chance and Community Chest cards have been replaced by Autobot and Decepticon cards, and require a card scanner to read them, much like the old tech specs on the back of Generation 1 packaging. Energon cubes and Anti-Matter replace houses and hotels, and new rules have been added for additional gameplay.
Game description: To mark the 50th Anniversary of the Toys "R" Us toy store chain, its parent company released an exclusive Monopoly Deluxe Edition set. These are standard U.S. Deluxe Edition games, with the exceptions being the plastic sleeve having the 50 Years Forever Fun logo, and a different set of pewter tokens inside the box, replacing the regular Deluxe Edition tokens. A pewter medallion with the Toys "R" Us mascot, Geoffrey the Giraffe, was also included, to be placed in the center of the rotatable Title Deed card holder.
Tokens: Ten pewter tokens were included, nine of which represent popular toys by Hasbro, sold within Toys "R" Us stores. They are: Mr. Potato Head, G.I. Joe, Rich Uncle Pennybags (shortly before he was renamed Mr. Monopoly), an Easy-Bake Oven, a Tinkertoy, a log cabin made of Lincoln Logs, a can of Play-Doh, a Nerf football on a kickstand, and a Tonka dump truck. The tenth token is a bust of Toys "R" Us mascot Geoffrey the Giraffe.
Game description: This edition utilizes a military-specific motif. Uncle Pennybags is frequently seen in MARPAT, while the Chance and Community Chest cards use Marine jargon.
Game description: This edition was released in 1998, to highlight achievements of the U.S. Space Program, including the then-recent Mars Pathfinder mission, and to mark the fortieth anniversary of NASA. The board features photographs related to the U.S. Space Program from 1960 to 1990. Properties include TIROS-1, the X-15, missions from the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo and Shuttle programs. Railroads became the Redstone rocket, the Titan rocket, the Saturn V rocket and the Shuttle. Community Chest and Chance became Earth and Moon, respectively. The tax spaces became Payload Tax (10% or $200) and Docking Tax ($75). The Electric Company and Water Works spaces remained the same.
Other features: The included Mission Manual (at the end of the rules booklet) explains the reasons behind the inclusion of the various Space Program missions on the game board. Currency features the Rich Uncle Pennybags character holding a space helmet and an American flag (rather than his usual tophat and cane). Houses and hotels retained their usual shapes, but became silver hangars and black space centers respectively.
Game description: This was one of USAopoly's first boards that mixed a popular film license with their license to produce themed Monopoly boards. For The Wizard of Oz, properties are placed around the board in a sequence roughly paralleling the plot of the movie. Thus the brown spaces feature stills from the sepia-toned sequences of Kansas, the light blue spaces are from Munchkinland, and the green spaces are from the Emerald City. The Utilities remained the same, but the Electric Company is represented by a photo of the jolt that the Wicked Witch of the West received when trying to remove the Ruby Slippers, and the Water Works is represented by a photo of the sequence from the Wicked Witch melting (the space is also subtitled "I'm Melting!!!"). The Community Chest and Chance cards retained those names, but the spaces on the board are represented by the Wicked Witch's hat and Glinda's crown, respectively (and card texts were changed to match the theme). Houses and Hotels were recolored grey and green, and were renamed Farmhouses and Palaces. The dice are described as being ruby red. Currency features photographs of characters from the movie (from Toto on the $1 to Dorothy on the $500). While the dollar sign $ is used, the denominations are said to be in bricks (instead of dollars), issued by the Bank of Emerald City.
Tokens: Eight pewter tokens were included: Heads of Dorothy/Toto, the Scarecrow, the Cowardly Lion, the Tin Man, a Tornado (with a house inside it), the Wicked Witch's hat, Glinda's crown and the pair of ruby slippers.
Game description: This is a Spanish translation of a U.S. Standard Edition Monopoly set. All placenames are literal translation of the original Atlantic City, New Jersey locations. Even the infamous misspelling of Marven Gardens is carried over, as Jardines Marvin on this board. All four railroads have the same names, the Electric Company and Water Works are also both kept. Under the space for Go, the Spanish word ¡Adelante! is written. The currency has the same colors and design as a standard U.S. set, with the legend "Copyright 1935 by Parker Brothers Inc." Similarly, the Community Chest (Arca Communal) and Chance (Casualidad) cards feature the Uncle Pennybags/Mr. Monopoly character that was introduced in 1936. Houses are the standard green plastic, and hotels are the standard red plastic.
Tokens: These are also based on the standard U.S. Edition game set, as of 1985 they were: a cannon, a battleship, a dog, a horse and rider, a shoe, a tophat, a wheelbarrow, a thimble, an iron and a car.
Other features: This 1985 edition was released by Parker Brothers as a division of the then Kenner Parker Toys, which was later bought out by Hasbro.

The board game Monopoly has its origin in the early 20th century. The earliest known version, known as The Landlord's Game, was designed by Elizabeth Magie and first patented in 1904, but existed as early as 1902. Magie, a follower of Henry George, originally intended The Landlord's Game to illustrate the economic consequences of Ricardo's Law of economic rent and the Georgist concepts of economic privilege and land value taxation. A series of board games was developed from 1906 through the 1930s that involved the buying and selling of land and the development of that land. By 1933, a board game already existed much like the modern version of Monopoly that has been sold by Parker Brothers and related companies through the rest of the 20th century, and into the 21st. Several people, mostly in the midwestern United States and near the East Coast of the United States, contributed to its design and evolution.
