In this update to the Clue Jr. Game, the characters no longer resemble the Clue suspects. One must speculate on the reasoning. Perhaps Parker Brothers disapproved of children identifying with a character that would grow up to be a murderer. Thus, not only have their images changed, but sex as well. The Green character has become a female. As for race, this may be the first edition to include an African American in the cast. Asian Americans are also represented, but have been for years in the Classic Clue. These images make a reappearance in the later edition Clue Jr. series book covers.
