The buildable Xbox 360 replica is back in stock at Target and offers $50 off
Mega Block’s Xbox 360 replica set was difficult to find in stock when it first caught our attention in September. But not only is it currently available, it’s also being sold for $50 off. This 3:4 scale model of the Xbox 360 pays tribute to Microsoft’s second gaming console and costs $99.99 at Goal (was $149.99).
Once you’ve put the 1,342 bricks together, the Mega Blocks replica takes the form of the glorious Xbox 360 console, a controller, a small achievement trophy and an in-box replica of Halo 3. The console and controller power buttons can light up and many of the removable elements, such as the hard drive and battery pack, can be removed. The coolest details, however, are all under the hood.
Removing the console’s side panel reveals the inner workings of this replica Xbox 360, complete with a cutesy and not-at-all-accurate layout of heatsinks, fans, and capacitors. You will also find a disk drive made for the included replica copy of it Halo 3. When you insert the drive, a small Cortana lights up in the console.
Although this model is not as robust as the Lego versions of the original NES or Atari 2600the nice details in Mega Block’s replica Xbox 360 make it a worthy collectible for fans of Halo or retro gaming (yes, this is now considered retro).
