Star Wars Monopoly to Include Rey, Because Duh

by ParentCo. January 06, 2016

After enraged Star Wars fans, boys, girls, and people with brains took to the Internet in protest of Rey’s omission from Star Wars themed toys, Hasbro has stated it will re-release the toys, like the Star Wars MEN-opoly, and include Rey.

The Internet replied with a resounding DUUUUHHHHHH.

For context, Rey is THE MAIN CHARACTER in the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens. And while we appreciate Has-BRO’s response, we’re not at all clear why we had to fight to have Rey included. Oh wait. Yes. Yes, we are.
