Super basic, but I know there's someone out there that is going to try and collect all these.

I like the Jean Grey and Storm ones. There are much better limited edition controllers out there though.

The console is pretty bad. Honestly couldn't even tell that was the Series X for a while.

Microsoft is the only company that has more exclusive controllers than games!

That console is ugly as hell. The controllers barely qualify as custom.
