I understand that they've now added a cat, a penguin, a T-Rex, and a rubber duck.
Specialty editions have different pieces.
Is Outlawed on here because of the Cowboy hat? Cause if so I'm not sure it technically counts since the piece is a Top hat.2hrs later.... LOL
Actually... I did some digging and there is a John Wayne Version that had a cowboy hat! Yeah! Now I can use that book without feeling like I'm cheating.
I found a website listing the pieces, including the new ones & those that are retired:- Battleship
- Boot
- Cannon
- Cat
- Horse & Rider
- Iron
- Lantern
- Penguin
- Purse
- Racecar
- Rocking Horse
- Rubber Ducky
- Sack of Money
- Scottie Dog
- T-Rex
- Thimble
- Top Hat
- Wheelbarrow
Inclusion of the Penguin really opens this wide up to any Penguin Press paperbacks...

Airplane isn't on this list, but it is on the one above. Was it a newly added one?
