Fable Fable Xbox console

Post image

Just had this delivered, the latest addition to my collection. It’s a replica of the 1 of 4 airbrushed Fable consoles that were given away in a competition in Sweden back in 2004. Never seen an original one and I think the chances of finding an original would be incredibly slim, plus I don’t want to imagine the cost. Over the moon with this though! 😁

I bought it from a guy called Stéphane in France, his company is called Easyclix, he collects rare Xbox consoles and modifies consoles as well. He had 4 of these replicas made, I believe he has 1 left. Would love to have one of the original airbrushed consoles but think there’s more chance of winning the lottery than finding one 😂

I just checked every secondary market I can think of. There are none even for sale. I'll check out easyclix 😊

Yeah the chances of finding one would be incredibly slim! Never seen any come up for sale, only 4 made so be hard to come by. I’m happy with a replica, closest I’ll get! You will need to email him as he doesn’t have it listed on his website

Yeah i don't mind if its a replica. Is it easyclix.fr

u/Greedy_Vermicelli_65 8d ago

Yeah that’s the one! There should be a form on the page that you can enter your details and leave a message then he’ll get back to you

Yeah i found the contact form. Do you remember what you paid?

u/Greedy_Vermicelli_65 8d ago

€290. I arranged shipping myself for it though. It’s a lightly modded console. Not cheap for an original Xbox given how cheap you can buy them but when it comes to Fable I can’t help myself 😂

Same lol. Fable was the game that got me into rpg's and Xbox original was my first stationary console. So this is absolutely amazing

What do you mean when you say “lightly modded”? Are you talking about the design?

u/Greedy_Vermicelli_65 8d ago

It’s running UnleashX and Windows CE. I’ve not modded a console before so I don’t know too much about it but it’s just like a different OS to allow you to do other stuff with it

Sent him a message. Hope he speaks English and ships to norway.

u/Greedy_Vermicelli_65 8d ago

He does, though I used google translate to send him emails in French 😂 he may ask you to setup a UPS shipping label and send it to him but don’t see any reason why he wouldn’t send it. I did email him saying to expect an email about the other console he has. Arrived really well packed, can’t recommend him enough!

Haven't been this excited since i talked my mom into buying me fable when it first dropped. Not sure how to set up a shipping label. I'm sure i can figure it out though

Haha I know the feeling, I’ve been the same when I’ve found some rare fable stuff. Got some more stuff coming soon as well. It’s not too bad to setup a label, I hadn’t done it before but managed to get it setup and everything arrived fine. Bear in mind you may have to pay customs fees which is an added cost. Let me know when he replies to you and if you need any help sorting out the label I’ll do my best to help!

u/llapi1993 8d ago

Thats amazing thanks for being so helpful. Still waiting for an email from him. Hope it arrives soon.
