I have an SSBM one on my family's and mine is a plain platinum one. I also have two XD skins.

Definitely a skin. I have the Pokemon XD Gale one on my Cube.

The only limited edition models I know about are the Pokemon XD one (had a shadow lugia on the disc cover) and a Tales of Symphonia one (highly publicized in Nintendo Power)

I have a couple dozen of these skins, i couldn't get rid of them for the cost of shipping. If anyone wants one, lmk.

Yeah, I have the Pokemon XD one and I have a Super Smash Brothers one (I guess that one is not technically a LTD ED.)

Found an Ebay link to the Japanese ToS one...

I wouldn't mind having that, but I'll probably go for the Japanese Spice Orange model instead first.

There are several others - most notably the very very limited edition FF Crystal Chronicles GC, the MGS Twin Snakes GC, the Gundam LE, the Hanshin Tigers LE, the Panasonic Q... All Japanese, but all LE consoles.

I'll take one if you pay me to take it. Those things are -hideous-.

the panasonic q is the gamecube to own. They made a resident evil limited edition to didn't they? seems hanshin tigers systems are always very rare like the neo geo pocket done in their theme

I think there is a Resident Evil LE, but it's NTSC/U or PAL (maybe PAL).

In order of increasing rarity, I think the Japnese consoles are like

Tales -> Gundam -> Hanshin Tigers -> Q -> MGS -> FF: CC

Hanshin TIgers LE is more uncommon than the others but usually appears for under $100. Tales and Gundam LEs seem to be quite common, though. I almost never see the MGS system, and the one time I saw a FF:CC system it was going for a cool grand - and sold really quickly.

The Hanshin Tigers NGPC LE is more kind of rare than very rare, IMO. Easier to find in Osaka, naturally.

I remember the RE4 GC, it was a NTSC/EU model. Should look that one up since it's my favorite game on the system.

Aside from the Pokemon XD cube, I believe the only true LE Cube that the States received was the Heineken cube:

I've only seen 3 surface since then.

More like $300+ shipping, zoiks!

Last time I saw one it was maybe $120-150, but I almost never see one in the wild.

Alright, well, after a few years, I've decided to sell my brand new MGS Twin Snakes Edition GC... yeah, I had to ask about it earlier. Probably aren't too many out there that have never been opened (or at least I'm hoping).
