Hi gamers and collectors!
Welcome back to yet an extremely rare addition to my XBOX collection, and here I have a Special Edition Smoke Black XBOX system. First off let me get this out of the way that it's a fucking hot day today, I had to get up super early for an interview that I doubtedly didn't get the job for, and with public transport being super reliable (sarcasm). So this rather special moment will be cut short as I'm feeling like a hot potato right now.
So let's do it!!
A two week wait has finally ended! My Smoke Black XBOX is here, and holy crap was the package super heavy. You thought the XBOX system out the box was heavy? Just wait until you try to lift this monster... well you won't be able to unless you find the system yourself ;). So when I finally got home at noon I scoffed down my cheese burger and opened the package. I had the thought of recording me doing this, but I just wasn't feeling up to it, the heat is really getting me. Glad I'm not 100 kilos, otherwise it'd be a lot worse...
On one side of the package there was a huge green block, what could this be?! It was, well to put it in an interesting way. It was a cake of XBOX games, yep, I got games with this system too, 22 games to be exact, 3 of 22 titles I already own and one of them being Double S.T.E.A.L... ><". I'll be mentioning what games I got during the week so I can have a comment on each one :). I know you're itching to see the Smoke Black system, and to be honest so was I when checking the games XD
So I unwrapped box with the 90000m of bubble wrap that came with it, and I was greeted with a beautiful white box. I don't know what's with XBOX and white but they seem to look so beautiful! Guess you know what's next on my to-get-list then ;). So as soon as you open the top of the box you're greeted with the controller (which didn't have a break-away! - so I'll grab one of my broken Duke anyway) + and a sealed DVD Kit.
This foam insert at the top is clearly for the shipment of the system from the factory to Japan retail stores, it's so brittle :/ Of course once that top part is removed you're given the system! *pop* naice.
I know you're probably staring at the mark on the DVD bezel. I was too, I believe this is just marker which will come off with some oil. I'll do that soon though, don't worry.
Here is basically everything in the box apart from the regular controller with the green jewel. I have two now :) The unit is complete, which I'll speak about below.
As you can see the manual is indeed sealed, but it comes with a keychain... What's all this about?
Instead of the number being printed on the system or box, it's on a neat keychain, and yep it's heavy too. Really like this, it's so neat! :D
The controller is seriously my favourite type ever! So nice in smoke black!
Overall I just love the Smoke Black XBOX, only released in Japan I'm happy to have it here, and complete as well. I'll make a video about tonight as it's just wayyy to hot right now my room will heat up like an oven set to the highest setting.
Stay tuned for the games that came in this package. Also many games in transit, much news during the week. See you there!
