“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” was released last month and is on track to become the highest grossing movie in American history. In the latest film, a new character was introduced: Rey. The young woman is a junk scavenger that goes on to become a fighter.

Fans of the new movie – and Rey – were disappointed to see that she was not included in Hasbro's new Star War Monopoly game, prompting them to ask on social media, #WheresRey?
