It was maybe a brief trend in the grand scheme of things, but damn it, it’s also the coolest. Clear plastic casing!
Xbox unveiled their latest model to celebrate their 50th anniversary, a throwback transparent green case that’s a direct reference to their first line of consoles (pictured in the thumbnail) and it kicks an unbelievable amount of ass. Am I biased because the green Xbox was the one I had as a kid? No. Maybe. Shut up.
But it got me thinking, what are some other great examples of this style that time forgot.
Well the IMac has to be in the running, even if it wasn’t entirely clear, it looks cool enough to get a pass. Not enough came in blue.
Of course, mentions of clear plastic wouldn’t be complete without a Gameboy. Just a beautiful form factor.
If there are any other great examples that you think I should’ve mentioned, drop em in the comments!
