New Era x Hasbro Battleship Hat Collection

This Friday, May 18th, marks the world premiere of Battleship, the first in a new crop of films based on popular Hasbro board games. To commemorate the movie’s premiere, New Era released a new series of Battleship Crew hats available exclusively at NewEraCap.com and New Era Flagship stores. What’s really cool about this release is variants of these caps were actually supplied by New Era and Hasbro to the cast and crew of Battleship during its production!

The Battleship Collection includes two 59FIFTIES fitted hats. The first is the navy “Battleship Crew Series,” which is directly inspired by the uniforms of navy officers, utilizing melton wool fabric and a custom Battleship naval patch as the primary logo. Completing the fitted hat is a hi-res image from the movie on its undervisor. The second fitted hat is the black “Battleship Aliens Crew,” which is inspired by the extraterrestrial enemy that is encountered in the movie. The primary logo is the official movie logo in a red “alien” color, and the undervisor features a different hi-res image from the movie.

Both Battleship Crew Series 59Fifty fitted hats by New Era are currently available from the New Era online store for $37.99 each.

Johnny Cupcakes has introduced the newest novelty item to its ever growing catalogue of goodies, Back Alley Dice! Each pack of Johnny Cupcakes Back Alley Dice includes 3 random, mysterious colored Johnny Cupcakes dice. Every pack is different! Even Johnny doesn’t know what colors he’s sending out as it's super random. There are many marbleized color combinations out there, even more than what's shown in the product image.

You can use the Johnny Cupcakes Back Alley Dice to collect, display, or trade, use them with your existing board games or even give them as cute mini gifts. Johnny’s also encouraging customers to start gambling with these multi-colored pins using Johnny Cupcakes pins as the currency. A website will be included on the packaging, which shows you how to play the new Johnny Cupcakes dice game. Don't forget to purchase extra pins to gamble with!

The new Back Alley Dice Packs can be purchased at all three Johnny Cupcakes retail locations and online for $9.99.

Jenga: Donkey Kong Collector’s Edition

The Blot loves old school video games and so I’ve been meaning to blog about this awesome video game themed board game from USAopoly for a while now. Jenga: Donkey Kong Collector’s Edition perfectly combines two classic 80’s games, the characters of Nintendo’s arcade game Donkey Kong with the game play of Hasbro’s Jenga. Is it me or does Mario have his own version of pretty much every single game, board or video, ever created!?!? Nintendo is definitely not shy about including their signature character into any property they can think of.


What’s great about this Donkey Kong themed Jenga is that USAopoly actually made changes to how you play the stacking game in order to incorporate more of DK’s original game play. According to the rules, “you’ll carefully build and balance the tower as your Mario climbs his way to the top. Spin the spinner and make your move. The Mario that reaches the top and saves Pauline from Donkey Kong or is closest to the top when the tower falls wins the game!” (link)


It sounds like a pretty fun game, and The Blot will probably be picking one up the next time I see one at the mall. Donkey Kong Jenga can accommodate 1-4 players and is for ages 6 and up. Each game includes 54 Donkey Kong Girders (wooden blocks), 4 custom Mario game pieces, 1 custom Donkey Kong and Pauline game piece and a custom spinner. You can currently purchase Jenga: Donkey Kong Collector’s Edition at Urban Outfitters nationwide, 80sTees.com and Amazon.com.

Monopoly x Reebok Reverse Jam Mid Sneakers

You know The Blot is a huge Monopoly fan. I think it ranks right up there with another Parker Brothers creation, Trivial Pursuit, as two of my all time favorite board games (both games are now owned by Hasbro). But, even with that being said, I don’t think I could pull off this new line of Monopoly x Reebok Reverse Jam Mid sneakers. While the concept is great, the shoes aren't as great as the board game itself.


The sneaker line consists of six different versions of Reebok’s Reverse Jam Mid sneakers, each focusing on a different aspect of the Monopoly board game. The sneaker’s colorways are: Monopoly Board, Monopoly Money, Monopoly Tokens, Monopoly Chance Cards, Monopoly Community Chest Cards and Monopoly Houses. (link)



I am in shock there are so many different versions, but it should mean if you want a pair of the Reebok x Monopoly line of sneakers then at least one style should be available to you. My favorite so far has to be either the classic Monopoly Board or the Monopoly Community Chest Cards Reebok Reverse Jam Mid sneakers.



The Reebok Reverse Jam Mid Monopoly Board and Monopoly Money sneakers are set to drop on August 28th, 2008 and will sell for $84.99. (link) The remaining four styles of the Monopoly x Reebok Reverse Jam Mid line will be released November, 2008. (link)
