Microsoft unveils limited edition Simpsons-themed Xbox 360

It may have taken forever for The Simpsons to reach the big screen, but it looks like Fox isn't wasting any time turning products yellow to tie-in with the movie, following up its Simpons-branded Samsung cellphone with a Homer-fied Xbox 360. Obsessive collectors could be in for a hard time tracking one of these down, however, as Microsoft's only producing 100 units to be given out at a series of special events and promotions. While they've gone all out with the branding, Microsoft has skimped on the console itself a bit, using the 20GB Xbox 360 Pro instead of the Elite. From the looks of it, you also won't be getting EA's just-announced Simpsons game with it, which, for a change, isn't actually based on the movie.

I too have won one of these, but I have no time to play it. So sadly, its going on ebay. Hopefully somebody else can use it.

i must say the 360 doesn't look bad put its way too over priced.....one sold on ebay for $4,500!.
It's only a regular 20gb hardrive 360 and i think it should have at least been a 120 gb hard drive 360 elite...you can even get a simpsons skin in some stores so thats just a totle ripoff for stupid or rich people.
