New Monopoly edition features RAZR token

by Paul Miller, posted Oct 6th 2006 at 1:51PM

Apparently, "easy target" Engadget editors aren't the only ones buying them RAZR phones from Motorola. In fact, it seems as if a fairly decent number of people have forked over the cash for aluminum ubiquity, because the diminutive flip phone has its very own token in the upcoming "Here & Now" 70th anniversary edition of Monopoly. The phone is accompanied by other branded products such as a Starbucks coffee, McDonald's French fries, a Toyota Prius hybrid, and a New Balance running shoe. Not bad company at all for a phone, but we're curious if they've opted for a plain ol' V3, V3c, V3i or perhaps even the V3m? After all, what's the point of casting yourself into the throes of capitalism if you can't even have a 1.3 megapixel camera or memory card slot while you're at it?

McDonald's fries? Is that for the fat people who play the game? WTF?? That was the best thing they could think of? A product that has led this entire world, our nation and our kids into obesity?! LOL, wow.

Shouldn't there be a big, smoldering hole in that laptop?

Not to mention that looks to be a Fourbucks (or should I call it Fivebucks now that they've increased their pricing?) marked coffee mug.
