I’ll admit that I didn’t like Futurama the first time I saw it (although I don’t remember why), and then I ignored it for many years. In the last couple years I finally watched again and realized I had been missing out on a great show. Thanks to reruns I have now seen many episodes, and have an interest in Futurama products like the Bender, Nibbler and Zoidberg Plushes, Slurm Energy Drink, and the new Futurama Collector’s Edition Monopoly Game.
You get the wit and humor of Futurama combined with the classic deal making and risk taking of Monopoly. The 22 properties in the game are popular locations from the show, Good News Everyone! cards, Attention Puny Humans! cards, resi-domes, and people hives. There are six collectible game tokens: Bender, Hypnotoad, Brain Slug, Seymour, Planet Express Ship, and What If Machine. No need to fight to be Bender, because being Hypnotoad or the Planet Express Ship would also be cool.
Good news everyone! The World of Tomorrow now features the board game of yesterday! Grab your holophonor for some virtual realty in the year 3000. Buy properties across the four corners of the universe (and the game board) as you hobnob with huggable industrialist Mom, dance with the Robot Devil, and take a mutated plunge into Sewer City. But mind the Hypnotoad – or else Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect 200 Professorland Fun Bucks. Custom Resi-Domes and People Hives replace traditional houses and hotels.
Includes Game board, 6 Collectible tokens, 28 Title Deed cards, 16 GOOD NEWS, EVERYONE! cards, 16 ATTENTION PUNY HUMANS! cards, 2 Dice, 32 Resi-Domes, 12 People Hives, 1 Pack of Professorland Fun Bucks, Rules.
