Wow. Just wow. I finally got around to unpacking the Limited Edition Traditional Japanese Arts & Crafts Monopoly (by Nakagawa Masashichi Shoten) I ordered a few months ago and I have to say, this was a heck of a purchase! This was the first time I have used White Rabbit (I was a little skeptical, but they were the only service I could find offering these) and I was very pleasantly surprised.

Not only did they keep the beautiful wrapping from the Nakagawa Masashichi Shotengai intact, but they included the shopping bag from the purchase as well. That was a nice little bonus. The big box appears to be the game itself and the smaller box the playing pieces.

Unfortunately, I can't bring myself to tear them open, as ridiculous as it sounds. They're just too beautifully wrapped. I'm going to have to track down the less expensive version with the plastic deer pieces so I have one to actually play, since it seems the game is in English as well as Japanese.
