Finally bought the Sonic Monopoly. Don't think there's a need for a picture. I've already posted a picture.

But yeah, it's pretty cool. I love the stages and the usage of teams and Sonic vehicles as stations and utilities. However the Chance and Community Chest cards do disappointing me. Not only do the renames to "Item Box"(Community chest) and "Badnik"(Chance) make no sense at all, the reasons you receive or pay money(or in this case, "rings") also make no sense. I mean it's like I have to pay "100 rings for losing a lucky charm"(gonna guess it's Froggy since it has Big next to it) and can go to GO and get 200 rings for "Guarding the Sol Emeralds". It's VERY random.
Also another thing I'm slightly disappointed is the fact that they didn't change the four corner squares of GO, Jail, Free Parking and Go to Jail. Maybe I'm being too picky but they could have replaced those with more "Sonicy" things....

But yeah, overall a good collector's set. If this was a review, I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10.

The Community Chest = Item Box thing makes sense to me.

I dunno about you but I'd expect to be paid a lot of gold (rings) for guarding a godly power.
Not totally teetotal.

I think I'd be quite disappointed if I had bought that.

I don't know... Well, I wanted to buy a Monopoly game anyway cause I'd recently found an interest in the game and just wanted one myself instead of borrowing it from my friends so I figured since the Sonic version is out, might as well buy it.
...But it was 45 dollars... so it was quite pricy.
Still it can't be that bad, can it?

On other news, my friends managed to get the 3 Sonic plushies that had been tormenting me for so long inside that stupid Claw machine in the arcade and I had to pay them to get the plushies from them... -_- Still, I got a Sonic, Tails and Shadow plushie so yay.

Also I had spare cash so I went and got myself one of those Sonic and Sega all stars racing lucky PullBack figures and Sonic Magnets...

I got the shadow one. It's pretty ugly... but meh.

I got the Super Sonic Magnet. They're sorta nice. For 2 dollars I got 5 useless magnets lol.

Splash Hill and Mad Gear last places on the Monopoly Board? No buy.

I'm kidding.

I NEVER seen a Cacha Box in my life. What is that anyway?

They're one those things that you put in a 2 dollar coin in and twist the handle and a capsule sort of thing comes out with a toy inside. They have heaps of stuff but this one had Sonic magnets :3

Where am I? I don't know this place. Let me pretend i been here for awhile...

Went on a spending spree at a record/movie store that was closing down. Best buy was the complete original series of Scooby-Doo.
