Colbopoly!
By
Remember this Threatdown? With Threat #5 Monopoly? (“Oh and by the way, why is there no Stephen Colbopoly? Get on that, Hasbro! No free parking!”)
Well, guess what? Some extremely creative and talented member of the Colbert Nation came up with one! (Click on the pic for the full version)
And look! No Fact Zone made the traditional “Go” spot! Thanks for the honor, guys!
Click here to go to the full-blown version of the Colbopoly game, with graphics, rules, and instructions on how to create your own Colbopoly board! Mad props to Page Branson, a true Hero today for creating such a wonderful piece of fan art!

That is nothing short of absolutely amazing.
WANT!!!
Seriously Hasbro. You could TOTALLY rake in the dinero with Colbopoly. Get on it! NOW.
Page Branson is now way up there on my list of heroes. I love the various items. “High Priestess Thea’s Thong” and “Mr. Jellineck’s Favorite Thick Handled Brush”… HAHAHA wow. I don’t know if I’d necessarily want those things.

So awesome!!!!
But speaking of Tad . . . miss him. (Though I believe Stephen owes him a royalty after tonight — he did use Paul’s “if the cable isn’t always on, you’re losing money” joke.)

I’ve got a Make Your Own Opoly a few years back that I never used to make anything. I should totally use it to make this.
It is completely awesome and something I would have never thought of.

Very cool.
And very nice to see NFZ represented — especially in such a prestigious location.
Thanks to Page Brason!

If this isn’t the game for Zoners, I don’t know what would be.
Page Branson, you’re an artist and incredible talent. Thank you for sharing with us this product of your inspiration, hard work and dedication. Your directions for creating the board game are so thorough it’s almost frightening. :) A special thanks for your honor of NFZ.
An achievement this involved can be supplemental resume material, you know. I hope your joy in creating this comes back to you in abundance.

Hey guys,
I’m so glad people like the game! And yeah, this is totally going on my resume.
I worked in an art supply store for four years so I have a bit of experience explaining things like these for people that might never have picked up a bottle of rubber cement or foam core before.
Thanks for all the praise!

@Page,
This is so amazing!!!! I really wish I could buy this game. You should definitely send your idea to TCR And to the makers of Monopoly. I’m wondering what the game pieces would look like…

The drawings are absolutely adorable, I especially love “Steve Carell sneezes and money falls out.” And Jon being thwarted by the robot! So cute! I can’t wait to play!
