After 78 years dodging the Go To Jail square, the iron is out of Monopoly and has been replaced by a cat.
The brutal decision on the board game token cull was taken by fans in 120 countries.

But I don't have any of them as my one is the Futurama edition.

My favourite has always been the battleship.

Although now there's a cat...hmmm, could be tricky.

I like to play as the Dog and the dog chases the cat so that's made my dog happy

We have several versions of the game as well as the original. We just picked up the Marvel's Super Hero version of Monopoly. Our youngest always wins. For the original I used the battleship.

Battleship here, but I've always wanted the shuttle piece.

Not sure why they felt the need to eliminate a piece.
