Monopoly, to its ardent fans, is the best thing ever. Then we have the collectors of cool board games and, then there are the Tim Burton fans. Where those three collide, Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas 25th Anniversary Monopoly is born. Boom! What’s this? What’s this? The in-game tokens are modeled after the film’s characters and iconic symbols. The board game takes you through destinations such as Jack’s Tower, Sally’s Alley, and Dr. Finkelstein’s Laboratory. You also get to own some of these destinations if you earn enough Monopoly Money. It’s like re-living the movie, only you are part of it.

This Monopoly Sweater Gets You Free Parking All Day Long
Sweet. I just bought Baltic Ave and Mediterranean. I’m a landlord! Finally! Woo-hoo! I am the king of great real estate decisions. Um, why is there a crack addict in that empty pool, playing a didgeridoo made out of like 10 rusty Mountain Dew cans? Also, why is the local lemonade stand manned by tweaky kids selling what appears to be blue rock candy? I guess I’m a slum lord. What a meth!
Who cares? With my awesome Monopoly sweater I feel like I own Park Place and Boardwalk. I’m pretending that the cockroaches crunching under my feet are just gravel. Gravel on my rich driveway. Gooey nasty gravel. This place isn’t so bad. Nah, it’s fine. That lady in the halter top and hot pants, leaning into that car window, must have just passed GO cuz the guy in the car gave her $200.
I want to go home to my zombie suburban wasteland!*tears*
