When I was at the USAopoly website looking at the animation on the front page, I
noticed the box front from the Klingon Monopoly was shown. However, I was struck by
the fact that the phrase for "Limited Edition" on the box front in the animation is
*not* the same as that found in the centre of the game board posted by loghaD. I can
send a screencap to anyone who wants it, but the pIqaD seems to read:

aplomey puS neH chenmoHlu pu (sic)

(Compare {veymey puS neH chenmoHlu'pu'} from the board image sent by loghaD.)

The glottal stop Deghmey seem not to be visible even in the word {chenmoHlu'pu'},
I guess due to the low resolution of the image, so presumably there's one intended
for the start of the word written in the pIqaD as /aplo/. But there's no space
between the /o/ and /m/ of the first word where a glottal stop might be, so the word
seems to be {'aplo}.

I wonder what that's all about, and why it's not {vey} as it is on the board image.
