Britney Spears performs onstage during the 2016 Billboard Music Awards at T-Mobile Arena on May 22, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Monopoly has released a special collector’s edition honoring Britney Spears. Monopoly: Britney Spears Collector’s Edition celebrates the pop star’s “musical journey” by taking fans on a nostalgic trek through her iconic career, showcasing the multiplatinum-selling singer’s biggest hits. The game comes complete with six custom tokens inspired by Spears’ famous music video props: Astronaut (“Oops!…I Did It Again”), Basketball (“…Baby One More Time”), Milkshake Tray (“Crazy”), Pill Box Hat (“Toxic”), Mirror (“Lucky”), Lion (“Circus”). You can buy, sell and trade your way to victory as you collect properties named after her popular songs. Custom railroad spots include: Tour Bus, Limousine, Helicopter and Private Jet. Monopoly’s Chance and Community Chest cards have been replaced with Curious and Fantasy cards named after Spears’ fragrances.

Players rack up Gold and Platinum records (cards) as they make their way around the board in one of the six Spears-inspired tokens. The last player standing, with custom Britney currency in hand, wins the game. Besides the custom visuals, the game rules remain the same: 2 to 6 players ages 8 and up. There are also 28 Title Deed Cards, 16 “Curious” Cards, 16 “Fantasy” Cards, Custom Monopoly Money, 32 “Gold Records” (Houses), and 12 “Platinum Records” (Hotels).

One fan who purchased the game on Amazon said: “This game is a good time for any monopoly or Britney Spears Fan. I thought this game would go by quickly because of the [sheer] amount that each ‘record’ cost to buy but it did not go any quicker than a normal game of monopoly. Some of the tokens are hard to find on the board when playing because they are so small such as the ‘Lucky’ mirror. The game itself is well made and the shipper shipped in good [condition]. I will say that the price does tend to vary depending on who you buy it from – I think this game is worth 40 dollars.” Another wrote: “very well done with great images, especially the money! i wish the dice were cuter but it’s easy to get a more fun pair. def recommend!”

13 Britney Spears Music Videos That Influenced Pop

  • If U Seek Amy

    When this song came out, everyone went wild with Brit’s clever play of words with the song title (If you get it, you get it. We’re not explaining this one). Britney plays up her sex appeal in the video, wearing black lingerie and a smoky eye in a hotel room with bodies lying around her.

  • (You Drive Me) Crazy

    Melissa Joan Hart and Adrian Grenier make appearances in the music video, named after the 1999 rom-com movie Drive Me Crazy the two actors starred in. The video features epic Y2K choreographed dance battles that they just don’t do enough of anymore.

  • Me Against The Music

    The Princess and Queen of Pop got together for the most epic showdown. Britney wears a sexy suit and tie, while Madonna wears an all-white suit. Our favorite part of the video is when the two pop superstars interact with each other through a wall that they share in different rooms.

  • Womanizer

    Britney bared it all throughout her “Womanizer” music video. She wears a short black wig and black-and-white outfit in an office, completely dominating the man who thinks he’s womanizing her, but she knows just what he is. Throughout the video, her character goes through many disguises to torment the poor chap, much to our amusement.

  • Gimme More

    “It’s Britney b—h.” Britney takes a shot at her pole dancing skills in “Gimme More.” But she never slides down the pole! Still, we think she’s achieved the effect she was going for.

  • Stronger

    Probably the most 2000s-sounding song, “Stronger’s” music video embodies all of the aspects of the era as well. From the futuristic white and silver outfits to Britney dancing solo with a steel chair, there’s a lot of iconic imagery. It shows why she’s a legend as a singer and dancer. And of course, they incorporated a rain scene.

  • Lucky

    We would absolutely die for Britney’s luxe pink robe in “Lucky.” She’s channeling old Hollywood glamour here. The video’s plot: Brit plays lonely successful star, Lucky. It does hit a bit close to home.

  • Circus

    She sure knows how to do product placement in this video, from her perfume line to Bulgari jewelry. Our favorite part of the video is when flames surround Britney and her dancers and elephants join in.

  • I'm A Slave 4 U

    Everyone in this video is a hot, sweaty mess. That doesn’t seem to bother Britney, though, who wears a pink thong over leather pants — an iconic look. She’s thriving in this environment.

  • Work B**ch

    We love how hype “Work B—h” is, but the dancing was definitely overshadowed by the massive amounts of explosions. Also, did you peep that Beats gag ball? Britney’s definitely working it here.

  • ...Baby One More Time

    “Oh baby, baby.” Britney’s pop career was propelled with this one, at the tender age of 16. Fun fact: the video was shot at Venice High School in Los Angeles, which was the setting for Rydell High in the movie Grease. She channels “Sandra Dee” from the beginning of the film and the black leather-clad “You’re The One That I Want” Sandy, simultaneously.

  • Oops!...I Did It Again

    Britney went intergalactic with this one. Her red patent leather jumpsuit went down as one of the most iconic looks in pop music video history. And it’s one of her most iconic songs.

  • Toxic

    Buckle up, since flight attendant Britney is up to no good, taking one lucky passenger for a trip to “the mile-high club.” Her nude, bejeweled catsuit was shocking for the era. It was something only she could pull off. Finally, Britney was blessed to ride on the back of a motorcycle with supermodel Tyson Beckford, before she backflips off superhero style. “Toxic” is by far her most iconic music video to date.
