Monopoly 2.0 Avatar is Live!

The second edition of the Neopets Monopoly Game, the "Legacy" edition, has officially launched as of this weekend, with copies spotted for sale at the Neopets booth at San Diego Comic-Con. Pre-orders from the Neopets Shop are due to ship by July 31st.

This product comes with a rare item code that awards a goodie bag item:


Among the contents of this goodie bag is a new toy:


Having one of your Neopets play with this toy awards the rather interestingly named "Take My Money" avatar:


Because playing with toys does not consume the item, this item can be used by multiple players without limit, similar to the original Monopoly game (limited to 2,000 units sold) which gave the 25th Anniversary Neopets Game Case and awards the "Withdrawal or Deposit?" avatar.

There are 39 comments below. Add yours!

So this one we'll be able to buy anytime from the Neopets shop?

right now they have not limited the stock on it (the first monopoly was strictly 2,000 units) but at some point they will likely stop producing it, yeah. depends how well it sells --- if it's selling great, they'll make more and sell more. if it's selling badly, they may stop after the first production run (and we don't know how large that first run is/was)

Kinda annoyed it’s not the same stamp to be honest
by hotwheeles on July 26, 2026 5:07 PM NST
@hotwheeles they couldn't, since the limited edition monopoly was advertised as having exclusive prizes

...Why is King Skarl a bank clerk now though? That's a *slight* downgrade from being the ruler of a kingdom.

@veeblackwell that's bank LORD to you

oof, more real-money avatars...
by sentehisshou on July 26, 2026 5:28 PM NST
more real money avatars remember you can always take bricks from construction sites. they wont know theyre gone. theyre free.
by graevyard on July 26, 2026 5:31 PM NST
Do you get all 7 items from the goodie bag? Stamp petpetpet toy etc?
by gravejelly on July 26, 2026 5:38 PM NST
It's kinda an uggo avie. At least the TCG avies are neat.
by pancake on July 26, 2026 5:57 PM NST
I'm kinda annoyed since I got the limited edition one, and now I'd have to get another one.
by dr_tomoe on July 26, 2026 6:20 PM NST
I decided to get the game but at the checkout it was 74 dollars in my currency which was advertised but another 99 dollars for shipping. Not today jose. Oh well there's plenty of stamps and avatars not available to me anyway.
by gravejelly on July 26, 2026 6:54 PM NST
i believe its called take my money in reference to the meme... (dont take this as me supporting an IRL money avi)
by wormbabie on July 26, 2026 8:17 PM NST
Great great great.

...

Now where is my TTRPG Avatar? :|
by apophis324 on July 27, 2026 12:02 AM NST
I literally work full-time just to fund my Neopets obsession at this point

The toy is going straight into my gallery. The avatar is literally me! Thank you TNT for your hard work, please take all my money!
by coffeecup24 on July 27, 2026 1:55 AM NST
I believe we know EXACTLY who this avatar is for. Insulting, though.
by catriki on July 27, 2026 2:47 AM NST
Why it’s not written as ‘Take my NP’

Some implications here
by neodressup on July 27, 2026 2:57 AM NST
So sick of the pay to play.
by infernodragon02 on July 27, 2026 3:39 AM NST
Av is super ugly, would've been cuter if it was just the hand with money being slightly animated, no text. Or maybe just the text on the same image like most classic avatars have, rather than it swapping back and forth between hand and text.

But another paywalled stamp is just.. /headdesk
Hopefully this monopoly will keep restocking so the stamp will deflate.
by biediep on July 27, 2026 4:17 AM NST
@neodressup

If there's a 'Take My NP' avatar then eventually there'd have to be a 'Take My NC' avatar as well.

I wish they'd normalize selling their merch on Amazon or in actual stores.
by puffkins2000 on July 27, 2026 5:19 AM NST
I love Neopets, but the greed of releasing a limited edition board game with exclusive rewards, getting backlash from that, changing the rewards, and then deciding to DO IT AGAIN with the SAME BOARD GAME but a DIFFERENT EDITION so soon afterwards is just absolutely unbelievable. "Fix things on the site? No, let us come up with more ways to get money from our devoted player base and change the design of random pages first." It's really gross.
by anarch on July 27, 2026 7:39 AM NST
The text on the avatar is also annoyingly spaced with slightly less space at the bottom than the top of the text. Not that I'll ever get this avatar, but it just bugs me
by apophis324 on July 27, 2026 8:23 AM NST
Also another thing that I *just* noticed: The Shoyru on the front of the Monopoly box is the *exact* same as the one that appears on the new Neopia Quest box art that was revealed the other day (just flipped and a different colour).
Lazy?
by apophis324 on July 27, 2026 8:29 AM NST
just gonna add my two cents that this is obviously annoying.
I already bought the first monopoly set...do they really expect me to buy the same game again just to get yet another pay2win avvie? yikes
by gr8 on July 27, 2026 9:00 AM NST
Showing as sold out for me
by flabbypotter on July 27, 2026 10:25 AM NST
They should made a second version of this avatar for those of us that backed the TTRPG and never got anything from it that says “took my money”
by nightshadeswiftswing on July 27, 2026 12:36 PM NST
I'm not so much bothered by the av being "paywalled" as the item can be lent. As long as even a single person bought this monopoly, if they're kind enough to lend others the item, everyone can get it.

Them constantly including album items in stuff like this is what really ticks me off.
And the fact that they sounded like they understood that it bothered people how limited the first monopoly was *BECAUSE* it included a stamp that only 2k people were able to get at most, so they acted like they were going to re-release it except they DIDN'T re-release the stamp and instead made it WORSE by releasing a NEW exclusive one. I'm so sick of this.
by biediep on July 27, 2026 1:44 PM NST
Idrc about exclusive item avatars bc the item isn't a consumable but I am very familiar with the meme the phrase and pose is evoking but they literally have to know this is in poor taste when so much of the playerbase has a bone to pick with them over the approach to monetization they've been taking. The site needs money to stay open and they've been slowly reducing predatory practices recently so I have a little more goodwill towards them than it sounds like based on what I'm saying, but like... they know how it /sounds/ right? Shut up and take my money hasn't been relevant in years anyway.
by mercy_graves on July 27, 2026 2:07 PM NST
Is this just how it looks for me or does this avatar also have blurry text like the Kiko one? Oof...
by amethyst43217 on July 27, 2026 2:21 PM NST
Getting so tired of these avatars ngl.
by kingloui17 on July 27, 2026 3:16 PM NST
Meh
by gweezunstad on July 27, 2026 9:27 PM NST
We got a message that the Monopoly game is in Georgia. I live in SC. Possible issue--SPEEDX. They are the designated shipping company. GO ONLINE AND TRY TO FIND ANYTHING SAID ABOUT THEM THAT IS GOOD. IT'S ALL NEGATIVE--PACKAGES MISSING, DELIVERED TO RANDOM PEOPLE, AND ADDRESSES. Wonder if I waited this long for nothing...getting nervous.
by katina_choovanski on July 27, 2026 10:59 PM NST
Well stuff my mouth with socks. The game made it here by this afternoon. My aisha token is broken at the neck. I got a head and a body. But SPEEDX did MARVELOUS with shipping. It came with ALL the rare item code items. I have that avvie now. The game is adorable.
by katina_choovanski on July 28, 2026 4:30 PM NST
My Monopoly game that is paid for is yet to ship.
by skayc11 on July 28, 2026 6:23 PM NST
Mine just shipped. I'm excited!
by caralyvar on August 1, 2026 2:05 PM NST
Got my game today, opened it up, and the Aisha game piece is missing a head... seriously?! The head was in the bag with the rest of the pieces, just not attached to the body. I've put in a ticket, but I can't say that wasn't disappointing after all the hype, I expected the pieces to be a bit better made :/
by myriamele on August 3, 2026 7:01 PM NST
Having said that, if anyone wants to borrow the game case to get the avatar, drop me a neomail, I'll be happy to lend it.
