Cat is in, Iron is Out: Monopoly Announces New Token

Hasbro announced which token Internet users voted out, and which new token was voted in.

In January, Hasbro asked Monopoly players to go online and vote for two things: their favorite current token in the game, and for a new token to join the game. Well, Internet users have spoken and the iron has run out of steam, according to the Chicago Tribune, and is being replaced by a cat. In a graph on Mashable, the dog was saved with 29 percent of the vote, and the boot, the iron and the wheelbarrow all only had 8 percent of the vote. According to a report on CNN, the new cat token is expected to "make its debut in mid- to late 2013." Watch the videos of the iron being locked up forever and the tokens welcoming the new cat.
