That looks like a game advertisement imo. Would be neat. I'm liking those rainbow Botbots on the side. They must've looked through my digibash thread, lol.

No problem, if I find more info on the series. I’ll share it.
Ryan F
Ok, understood! Thanks for the share, anyway!

I'll give them credit for the energon cubes, but c'mon. We couldn't change up the Free Parking car with one of so many Transformers vehicles? Or replace the police officer with Prowl? How about we replace the metal tokens with reproductions of G1 mini-cars?

Monopoly – Transformers Edition

I guess it depends what you count as a different ‘version’, I suppose. Some of the older ones used local currency (dollars, pounds etc.), so I expect there would have been a number of regional variants. This new version uses non-region-specific ‘M’ currency, presumably so they can sell it in other English-language regions unchanged?

True, however they are all considered Official Transformers and/or Monopoly product, whether made directly by Hasbro, or licensed By Hasbro to another company. My original question was how many Official versions of Transformers Monopoly existed. The Answer is 4 (soon to be 5).
Companies like Furai ,Super 7, USAopoly which license the Transformers name from Hasbro are still considered official Product (S7 TF toys now are right there with Hasbro toys at Target). Whereas the plethora of 3P companies that make Transforming toys are all unofficial because they do not pay Hasbro for Licensing.
If you want to be technical and say 4 versions of Transformers Monopoly were Licensed by Hasbro, and one will be made directly by Hasbro, that is fine, but that's NOT the question I asked.
Ryan F
“Licenced by” isn’t the same as “made by”!
This is the the first TF Monopoly set that Hasbro have made themselves.
As was stated earlier, the previous sets were made by USAopoly, who paid Hasbro for the rights to use the Transformers and Monopoly names and branding.
To give you a similar example, look at the non-transforming Transformer ReAction figures. While they’re licenced by Hasbro, they’re actually produced by a completely different toy company, namely Super 7.
O.Supreme
From the back of the box of my 2007 Version, clearly licensed by Hasbro.
But in a round about way you did answer my question. Thank you. It doesn't matter if it was made directly by Hasbro, or licensed, it is still an official Monopoly. So the answer is 4, and This new version will be the 5th. Anything that actually says Monopoly is official, unlike something like this:

I think more effort was put into the SONIC the Hedgehog edition. Even the mini figures got more attention – and paint.
