Orange Original Xbox Console (2004 Unreleased Prototype)

Estimated that only three to five of these prototype consoles exist.

These units were originally created as colour tests or samples for a potential special edition related to Xbox Live.

Some versions feature "Halo" lettering on the front right, while others display "Live" branding.
