It’s the only idea I have on what to give my brother, and now I’m kind of locked into a theme, since I got one for my mom.

You know that Monopoly World edition? I need to find the chinese dragon mover (I’m pretty sure it’s a chinese dragon, but it could just be a dragon).

Any ideas? Are there any sites that offer individual ones for sale? Ebay is failing me on this.

Also, if you happen to have a picture of one, that’d be good too, so I can try to hunt down something acceptably similar.

Thank you so much!

Do you know the official title of the game version? There are[replacement parts](http://www.hasbro.com/customer-service/replacement_parts.cfm) available for many Monopoly games, but if it’s the Here & Now Worldwide version it doesn’t look like they offer the tokens, but maybe you could contact them directly and find out for sure.

Thanks! I don’t actually know the exact title of the game but I’ll find out tomorrow and check out that site.

And thanks for moving the thread, **twickster**. (I’ve never been in the game forum and assumed it was for playing games on the Dope, not \*all \*games. Oops.)

The token you want is not available from Parker Brothers. I collect Monopoly tokens (450+) and most from the World Edition are on my list of those I still need. If they were available from PB, I would have it. I bought the game and got 6 of the 24 but not the one you want.

As far as an alternative, do you live near a store that sells Chinese decorative imports? There is an Asian mall near me and it has a couple of vendors that sell a variety of pewter items. I have bought some things from these vendors that would make excellent Monopoly tokens. They also have a variety of dragons too.
