Mattel has announced a new building toy kit, a 1:1 scale replica of the original Xbox, through its premium Mattel Brick Shop brand. The kit, which commemorates the console's 25th anniversary, features 3,509 pieces, including the console, a buildable Duke controller, and several game dioramas.
The set includes swappable game models from Halo: Combat Evolved, Psychonauts, and The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, with lights, sounds, and illuminated lighting effects. According to IGN, pressing the controller's buttons brings hidden scenes from the games to life, accompanied by their corresponding soundtracks. A secret button combination also triggers a unique lighting sequence.
The kit is available for preorder at a price of $324 or $329.99, depending on the retailer, from Amazon or Best Buy. It also includes 12 NanoWorld figures. While no official release date has been announced, Amazon lists the ship date as October 1.
