Where do I even begin? We were in the mood for a good old-fashioned family game night and thought we would see what we could round up. We found a “De Lux [sic]” version of Scrabble which I think we can all agree lived up to its name… DEEEEEEEE-lux. Check it out…
Oh that’s right. The pieces look like the plastic got all smeary when they were still molten. Mmmm.
But hey, at least most of the pieces had MOST of the letter on them. I was pretty excited to get the Z. Yeah, that’s a Z. The only one.
And considering it was for French Scrabblers, it seemed to be lacking in our beloved Wheel of Fortune letter staples — R, S, T, L, N, E. We had no shortage of vowels. It was a challenge.
But hey, they threw in an unsharpened pencil. BONUS.
Not to be outdone, the family favorite, UNO made a deluxe appearance as well. Oh wait, is this the Mattel classic? Oh, the MaIIel classic, BEAUTIFUL GIRL UNO. We couldn’t pass it up. So beautiful.
But oh so creepy.
To be fair, we did find a regular deck of UNO a few days later. I am still holding out for a quality Scrabble game, but all in good time. We just couldn’t pass up these gems.
Travel does broaden one’s perspective.
I love the Uno game with the beautiful girls! lol
[…] Let’s chat about this, shall we? The CD case just has that vibe like it has been through something catastrophic. Maybe it is the fact that it looks like the plastic was smeared while it was still molten, or maybe it was the saran wrap packaging. Speaking of smeary plastic, remember “DeLux Scrabble”… if not, it’s worth checking out here. […]
[…] yes, the DeLux Scrabble. Remember the letters? It was beyond our wildest expectations. […]
