Yep, that's happening.

Next month even. Looks like Usaopoly has a miscellaneous game licence, not just monopoly.

And, as with the Futurama Monopoly, I bet it won't be released in the UK...

[Reply #2 on:]

Clool. Never even played that game before. As for the probability of non-UK, the internet has no bounds! ...

I've never played traditional Yahtzee, but like I care. Getting it~

Yahtzee? Not as cool as Monopoly, but I can't say I've ever seen a themed Yahtzee before.

[Reply #5 on:]

Never? I see the Hello Kitty one all the time at Toys 'r Us.

This is awesome news. I love Yahtzee. It's pretty much playing card hands with dice, and it's a fun game. I played it all the time on my calculator in college, you know, before I had a cool phone (which still doesn't have games on it).

You've truly not seen themed Yahtzee, spira? They're running amok! I think last Xmas or 2010's Xmas season they started really pounding out the themed versions. They've had Muppets, Pirates of the Caribbean, Hello Kitty, and now we've got Futurama coming out soon, so at least four versions to date, probably more. They're hoppin' on the 'Opoly tram. Probably because nobody plays the physical version of the game in the first place (that I know of anyways).

That's true. Slap some officially licensed cat logo on it and you got yourselves a seller.

Yeah just go to any Barns and Noble and you'll see like 10 different variations of Yahtzee. Just because you put the picture of Mario or Coca Cola product on the game doesn't actually change anything...

I may have to grab one of these as I prefer Yahtzee over Monopoly.  Looks cool.

[Reply #10 on:]

I actually enjoy Yahtzee quite a bit, at least as a calculator "app". I presume I will enjoy the physical version too.

[Reply #11 on:]

So looks like it just popped up on the bay and Amazon. Is that the actual MSRP on the thing? Because that seems kind of high (the $31).

Other sites got it too like this one, I am just trying to calculate who is cheapest with shipping.

[Reply #12 on:]

I don't know that Yahtzee is THAT expensive. $25 is the highest I'd price it at in stores. But more likely it'd cost about $20. I haven't bought board games in forever though so I'm not really sure on pricing (Futurama Monopoly aside).

Edit: Yeah, $19.99. Big Bad Toy Store wins.

[Reply #13 on:]

Nah. Close to $9 to ship just UPS (to me anyhow). The one on e-bay wins so far, at $22.99 with free shipping. But regardless it is the same seller on e-bay and amazon (toynk toys).

[Reply #14 on:]

Well, I meant they win for base price checking. Most sites like this are biting customers in the ass with their shipping fees. And then they make you pay for return shipping as well if something isn't as you wanted it in your order (Lookin' at you, Think Geek).

Ha, same here.

[Reply #16 on:]

Like I said above, I've played it as a calculator game the pre-smartphone days. Very stimulating if you like to strategize. A little bit of luck, and lot of strategy is what usually works with me.

[Reply #17 on:]

For reals? That looks totally awesome! I want it, if only just to have a giant Bender head xD

[Reply #18 on:]

If you count the giant Bender head DVD Collection this one is a mini Bender head. Still awesome looking:)

[Reply #19 on:]

[Reply #20 on:]

[Reply #21 on:]
