Is there anything more unrelated to the band, should we try to find the least Queen related Queen branded item?
However each band member gets a song in place of the train stations, which is good, very equal, i can see it taking brian weeks to come up with that.

Brian has had terrible bad lapses of taste with Queen product.
That stupid book with the glasses and now the Monopoly box, not to mention working with Dappy, Five and now Adam Lambert
May is a disaster zone and thank god Freddie directed him into the right place from "Smile" which was going nowhere fast.
Wish Freddie was still here at least he would snap May out of his ridiculous ideas.

It wasn't all Freddie, if we are using band members leaving for when things got bad, logically John Deacon would be the ideas man....
It's just Brain is getting more and more out of touch with what fans and the public in general want, there was 4 members putting in ideas and perfecting products, then three, then Two and now it seems Brian is left to control the brand more or less alone, while Roger's job is to buy bigger burlap sacks to put money in.
And i mean absolutly no disrespect to Brian but his interests are very eclectic, Space, 3d imagery, badgers.... and none of these really sell well when forced into Queen products.
Adam Lambert is good if only for the fact we started getting some 70's concerts officially released, when they were with Paul Rodgers we only got 80's rockier stuff (matching the current with the past).

Unsurprising to see this willful ignorance from you. Just because you don't understand what stereo photography is doesn't mean it's stupid.
I feel like I'm talking to a 12 year old.
Carry on.

There's a lamp that someone made that rips off the red special, but in blue...
Crazy that Brian thinks that if you put work in something it will be automatically a succes. Or worse: it DESERVES to be a succes.
Monopoly is a great classic game. Of course it made total sense to release a Queen version. But as Brian might or might not know, there are hundreds of variations.
People that like Monopoly don't need another version. They have one already. And people that like / collect Queen aren't necessarily the same people that like to buy a boardgame.
This product was always doomed to be a niche product. And that is perfectly fine of course!
Brian completely lost it if he thinks it DESERVES to be a bigger seller than it was.
Stick by doing what you do best I'd say (music, animal protection, co writing books etc). And don't be disappointed if something you did that is not your expertise isn't the success you hoped it would be. That's life.

I don’t think stereo photography is stupid but it’s queen related stupidity.

The 3D book was a nice thing. I didn't buy it, of course.

Am I the only one here who has Queen Monopoly? I got it for Christmas from the family.

I think most people already own Monopoly, i don't need two very rarely played versions of the same boardgame.

It was Fred's last wish.
'Don't make me boring. Make sure to release a Queen Monopoly game'

Well I wouldn't want it for free. Just like 99% of non-musical Queen releases

Well, I loved the beer and I like the hot sauce, but I think they should have called it Hot Spice... :D
