Fans will be able to vote on all new 'Monopoly' pieces - here are all 56 options ranked from worst to best

55. Money Clip with the letter M

55. Money Clip with the letter M

This feels too similar to the last option. I wouldn't want to be stuck with this piece if I was playing with a large group. Money clip doesn't exactly scream fun.

54. Hashtag

54. Hashtag

There are some things that are better left on social media.

53. Thumbs-Up Emoji

53. Thumbs-Up Emoji

Thumbs down on this token idea. It looks too realistic compared to any other Monopoly game piece.

52. Crying with Laughter Face Emoji

52. Crying with Laughter Face Emoji

There are a few different emoji-based tokens on here. I'm going to put them all back-to-back here because they feel unoriginal and I think emojis should stay inside electronic devices.

51. Kissy Face Emoji

51. Kissy Face Emoji

This should only ever be used in emoji form.

50. Winky Face Emoji

50. Winky Face Emoji

This one is semi-cute, but I'm not going to give into the emoji tokens.

49. Smiley Face Emoji

49. Smiley Face Emoji

This is the most tolerable of the emoji tokens because it's also the least emoji-like. This could also just be any old smiley face. Still, these last four options just feel so unlike anything Monopoly has ever had as tokens on its board. They usually stick to physical, tangible objects you can touch, not emotions you can feel.

48. Gramophone

48. Gramophone

Kids these days barely know what vinyl and VHS tapes are. We expect them to know what a gramophone is? We have to admit though, the detail does look pretty cool.

47. Sliced bread

47. Sliced bread

Hasbro had 64 options to come up with any food-based item it wanted for a token. It could have been anything from an avocado to a peach and they went with bread.

46. Bathtub

46. Bathtub

Nothing screams Monopoly like bathtub.

45. Wheel

45. Wheel

This reminds us of one of the wheels from a carriage. I think this would have worked better in an old-timey version of the game or a special edition.

44. Typewriter

44. Typewriter

This is probably the first typewriter some kids will have ever seen.

43. Bowtie

43. Bowtie

Dapper, but not what I'm looking for in a game piece.

42. Life Preserver

42. Life Preserver

This won't save you if you wind up in jail.

41. Mr. Monopoly Emoji

41. Mr. Monopoly Emoji

Out of all the emojis, we find this the most tolerable, but perhaps it's just a bit too creepy playing as Mr. Monopoly himself during the game.

40. Key

40. Key

Only if this key gets you out of the jail space.

39. Wireless Phone

39. Wireless Phone

If we're going to have a some type of cell phone, let's at least have an updated one.

38. Sunglasses

38. Sunglasses

Sunglasses are for your face, not for a board game.

37. Sneaker

37. Sneaker

If we're replacing the original Monopoly shoe, it has to be more impressive than any old tennis shoe.

36. Monster truck

36. Monster truck

We're thinking this is inspired by Hasbro's other toy line. Let's keep the brands separate.

35. Camera

35. Camera

One day, this will be a relic.

34. Flip flop

34. Flip flop

There are several shoe selections on this list, and the flip flop feels less classy than the rest.

33. Scooter

33. Scooter

There are also a lot of vehicle options for the new tokens. This feels the least cool when you see what else there is in store.

32. Tortoise

32. Tortoise

A cute little turtle? Sign us up. But this tortoise looks a little too realistic.

31. Fish

31. Fish

This goldfish is pretty cool looking, but it doesn't feel like a classic character.

30. Jetski

30. Jetski

The jetski feels like the water version of a scooter.

29. Bicycle

29. Bicycle

Where we're going, we need something faster than bikes. The bottom platform also makes this piece feel bulkier.

28. Watch

28. Watch

Watches belong on wrists. We don't need another reminder of time flying by on the game board.

27. Pocket Watch

27. Pocket Watch

Ditto goes for the pocket watch. Though, the Roman numerals add some flair.

26. Boot

26. Boot

This Wellington boot feels a little less universal than other options.

25. Nascar racecar

25. Nascar racecar

This feels a bit generic.

24. Motorcycle

24. Motorcycle

If we're possibly replacing the Monopoly car, it needs to be with a cooler car, right?

23. Dress shoe

23. Dress shoe

We're loving this shoe upgrade, but does Monopoly really need another shoe?

22. Old TV

22. Old TV

Can we find a TV like this anymore?

21. Surfboard

21. Surfboard

We think Beyoncé would approve.

20. Roller skates

20. Roller skates

These feel fun and more original than sneakers.

19. Rooster

19. Rooster

If we're potentially replacing the classic cat and dog pieces, I'd hope to see something more universal. The animal tokens are definitely incredibly detailed.

18. Beach ball

18. Beach ball

In my opinion, the best Monopoly pieces can stand on their own and don't need a tiny platform underneath them. The beach ball gets some points for originality though.

17. Yacht

17. Yacht

The millionaire yacht, while classy, feels a little too highbrow for a kids' game.

16. Plane

16. Plane

The plane is definitely a first-grade upgrade from a car.

15. Cowboy boot

15. Cowboy boot

There are a few different cowboy-themed objects here and the detail on this boot is fun and funky.

14. Helicopter

14. Helicopter

Monopoly has tried to introduce a helicopter to the game before, but it lost out on the popular vote. Maybe it will have better luck this time around. The downside here is that it looks like the helicopter is on some sort of sled.

13. Cowboy hat

13. Cowboy hat

The cowboy hat feels like a nod to one of the original pieces, the top hat.

12. Rabbit

12. Rabbit

We're loving the detail on this little bunny. This is definitely one of the cutest animal offerings on the table.

11. Racecar

11. Racecar

If we're going to have a successor to the iconic car token, than this racecar is pretty nifty and easy to move around a Monopoly board. It's one of eight new tokens we were able to try out.

10. Rotary phone

10. Rotary phone

We know we dismissed the other phone for looking too old, but this rotary phone looks regal and nostalgic.

9. Computer

9. Computer

It's not exactly a laptop, but if we're aiming to capture a piece of history then the desktop fits that description.

8. A campfire

8. A campfire

There was just something so unique and so different about this token. Plus, the detail in the flame and logs are captivating.

7. Trumpet

7. Trumpet

A beautiful nod to musicians and to the history of jazz.

6. Sailboat

6. Sailboat

We've looked at yachts and jet skis, but there's something that just feels so simple and carefree about this little sailboat.

5. T. rex

5. T. rex

Now, here's what we're talking about. This T. rex would blow those emojis away.

4. Horse

4. Horse

This horse reminds us of a former classic Monopoly token of a cowboy rider on a horse. This feels like a nice throwback.

3. Bunny slipper

3. Bunny slipper

There's just something about the little bunny ears on this we can't get over.

2. Rubber Duck

2. Rubber Duck

Forget the bathtub token, and just give us the adorable rubber duck.

1. Penguin

1. Penguin

What's not to love about penguins? I bet a lot of people will want to play with this. Better start packing your bags cat and dog.
