Against the background of the exit from the Russian market of the American toy manufacturer Hasbro, stores are faced with a shortage of the Monopoly board game. Chains are selling 2022 inventory.
It is reported by RBC with reference to the representatives of the network. Most of the stock is out of stock and no new shipments are “expected,” support officials told the publication.
Monopoly can no longer be purchased on the Hobby Games website, and only some collector’s editions remain for sale on the Hobby World and Mosigra websites, such as Monopoly: Adventure Time or Monopoly: Rick and Morty, dedicated to the cartoons of the same name. .
Detsky Mir, the largest chain of children’s goods stores, said that Monopoly games are still available for sale, but we are talking about last year’s stock.
In March this year, the Ministry of Industry and Trade included Hasbro’s toys in the list of goods for deliveries to the Russian Federation for parallel imports, but Detsky Mir noted that they do not buy board games because they require translation.
