The latest design to gain the required 10,000 supporters at LEGO Ideas is based on the family favourite board game, Monopoly!
From the talented mind of Master_Brickz, comes a brick-built recreation of the Monopoly board game. The build keeps the look and feel of the original from 1935 but made from LEGO bricks and a lot or printed/stickered tiles. It includes a board, houses, hotels, player tokens, money, chance and community chest cards, and property cards. It’s a decent size too coming in at 54×54 studs, ample space for properties and hotels, the jail, go-to-jail, GO, and free parking spaces. It also comes complete with 10 player tokens; car, thimble, hat, ship, wheelbarrow, suitcase, cat, dog, duck, and iron. It also comes with 12 hotels, 32 houses, and 2 dice. LEGO Monopoly money is also included, which are each 4×8 tiles with the amount printed on them.
The idea looks great and one many fans would love to get their hands on, I know I would. I think the board ge market and LEGO is a great mix and opens the doors to other games too, we need Monopoly and a whole collection of board games in our collection.
Unfortunately reaching the required goal of 10,000 supporters doesn’t guarantee it’ll be made into a real-life LEGO set, but there is hope for fans as the LEGO Ideas team will debate on and choose which sets will be lucky enough to make it through sometime next/this year – we wish Master_Brickz the best of luck in the next stage.
