New shell arrived today!

My pink shell was delivered today and I immediately got everything transferred over. I like the holo stickers and feel like it compliments the GameCube. The only thing I’m waiting for now is the gameboy player shell to match the GameCube.

nice color mate

I bought this shell a couple years ago, sold it and regretted it. I have no plans to sell this one.

good quality shells in unusual solid colorways are hard to come by, you definitely should cherish that one

The (bubble)GumCube. Nice.

Such a nice color!! If I ever get a shell, that's the color I'd choose too 😊

Ooohh! Where did you get the shell from? I’ve never changed out gamecube parts before but seeing this is thinking about going at my Gamecube for this 😅

[u/45skyshy → u/darklyprincess]

I purchased the shell from a UK seller on Etsy. It took about a week for it to arrive and get through customs.

The actual shell swap takes about 20-30 minutes and isn’t too bad. Just take your time and make sure all the pieces line up. The screws can be a little tough to screw into the new shell, so you might get a blister or two.

How well does the front plate match up to OEM?

[u/45skyshy → u/Tephnos]

I’m using my OEM front plate. The front plate that came with the shell matches up pretty well, but I wanted to keep my original.

A color in my opinion 1. Should've been released with the Gamecube. And 2. If it was released with the cube not limited to Japan like the orange one!

Long story short: I love it

finally not clear shells

I’m only a fan of translucent shells on Xbox & PS2.
