Hi all,

You guys were so great helping me find that Jet Set Radio Dreamcast that I have another question!

Someone e-mailed me and told me they've found a limited edition "V" Halo Xbox on eBay. He didn't give the auction link but did provide pictures. I know there's a translucent green Halo Xbox, but apparently this one is NZ specific and features a "V energy drink" logo. Do any of you know if this is legit?

His e-mail:
"Hi im just inquiring if in the xbox limited edition green halo consoles if there is a limited edition V halo xbox there is one on trade-me which is a new Zealand auction site,if you don't know V is a energy drink,im only asking because im interested in buying it if it is genuine limited and I havent heard of a V MODEL ,ive included a couple of pics of it,im unsure if you will know apparently there was only 10 consoles sold in new Zealand"

Aw nuts, I'm sorry, I thought I was editing, not quoting. Can someone delete that 2nd post and this one?

Looks like a sticker stuck on it to me. I can't make out the logo on the picture on the box. Besides the sticker, looks identical to my Halo Xbox.

Later,
Chrome...

well, considering the picture on the box does not have that "V" on the console, im assuming it is a foreign version of the US Halo Xbox that someone put that "V" sticker on to try and get people to think it was a limited edition....

XBox V Edition? Hey! I was never told about this! Shouldn't I be getting some royalty checks in the mail by now?!

It was a promotion for the V energy drink where you had to
sms your details to go into the draw to win a halo edition Xbox,
It was in Australia, although that is not an aussie console as
the ratings sticker is from somewhere else, So yeah im not sure,
what other country's do they sell the V energy drink in?
