There are some amazingly fun movies in theaters this summer for families, and of course last week marked the release of the long-awaited Despicable Me 2 in theaters! We just saw this movie last night and – naturally – loved it! I even got teary at the end (if you’ve seen it I’m sure you know which scene!)
To add to the excitement and anticipation building before we saw the movie, the kids received two new games from Hasbro a few weeks ago with a Despicable Me 2 theme! We all love Operation and Monopoly so it was super-fun to be able to add a little Minion madness to our game-play!
Monopoly Despicable Me 2 Game
It’s the classic fast-dealing property trading game of Monopoly, now with multitudes of minions! Gru is back with another evil plan and it’s up to you to collect Banana Bucks and own all of your favorite properties before he succeeds. Spin the Minion Spinner to move your minion around the board and wheel and deal to win the most mischievous Monopoly game ever!
Operation Despicable Me 2 Silly Skill Game
It’s the classic skill game of Operation, now with multitudes of minions! Stuart’s having a bad day and it’s up to you to fix him. Operate on Stuart to remove the unicorn fluff or fix his nutty noggin and his toxic tongue! Collect all of Stuart’s Funatomy parts to win and earn extra points with Minion Medics, but don’t set off the buzzer! Are your hands steady enough to win the Despicable Me 2 version of Operation?
Look for both of these Hasbro games at your favorite retailer (in Canada, check out Walmart, Toys R Us and Superstore) and online too of course!
We’re going to see the movie this week 🙂
Both games look fun, especially for fans of the movie.
my youngest and I love board games
I loved Operation when I was a kid – very cool updated version 😀
we love board games, my DDs would love both these games !
This would be a nice add on to family game night
