I voted to save the battleship and add the helicopter.
What did you vote for?

Definitely save the dog and add the ring.

Robot is weird, cat's are awful creatures, guitar and helicopter are decent choices but I feel ring is modern yet fits in with old pieces.

Was wondering that.

Isn't it obvious the thimble or more likely the iron will be voted off the island?

Thimble, Iron & Wheelbarrow are all equally useless... they made sense during the depression

Monopoly was first introduced during the depression. At the time these were common tools/household items...when's the last time anyone here has handled a thimble or wheelbarrow?

I used to play as the thimble when the battleship was taken, can't really explain why though.

I don't sow much, but a friend whom does uses a thimble all the time. I also use an iron daily. A wheelbarrow is less common but still in use...

So? Do we have the same kind of car, shoe, ship, hat, or wheelebarrow for that matter? Only thing the same is the thimble then!

My point was they are slightly out of touch with modern society... a computer is today what a thimble was back then (common use)
