Sorry, I have the humor level of a 12 yr old. non-seaman hit my funny bone.Actually, not sure if I've seen this one. So is it essentially the non-colored semi transparent one but without the Seaman logo on it? Pics pls, I may "need" this.

It's in "storage".
Yes, it's non-colored semi transparent. I've yet to find out the exact history of this variant. I can't find many pictures of it online either (I found one), but this is how it looks at the lower lefthand corner. It has the SEGA and the windows CE logos on the front, so I would imagine this rules out the possibility of it being a generic replacement shell, but who knows.

3DO Panasonic FZ-1, always thought it was one of the smarter looking consoles designs, of the cd ones anyway.
cartridge based consoles I would say n64 or jaguar are cool looking also.
but overall I think the FZ-1 is the coolest console out there

Really clean and cool looking for sure. Definitely my favorite Saturn color.
Unfortunately, like most white consoles, they look terrible when they sometimes turn yellow...

This is why I avoid white consoles altogether.

ooh, nice. Is the stock LED blue? For me, it just needs a touch of black here and there and it would pop even more.

Yes I like that one too, too bad it was Europe only as far as I know.
P.S. - The white Saturn is BOSS. I was always too afraid to buy one for fear of yellowing though, those age about as bad as Super Nintendos.

I think it was a UK release at least, not sure about the rest of the EU. I lucked out with mine. Some dude was selling the shell, clear controllers and the box on eBay over 10 years ago. I scooped for about 35bux and just swapped out the standard black shell on mine. So I kinda cheated.

Same level of pointlessness as the Commodore Gaming System (which also looks like shit)

It's an first-party replacement shell. There were a handful of other colors as well. But yeah, the DC, Sega, and Windows CE logos mean it's not a generic replacement.

Something about that console really pops in a way no other white console has ever been able to. I was lucky enough to find one NOS in 2001 so no yellowing for me.

Yeah. Buy a nice one that isn't yellowed, then don't smoke or touch it with jelly fingers, then you're fine.
Saw a box of yellowed SNES's at the thrift store yesterday (and a $40 boxed Rayman for Jaguar), and remembered that was what had happened to my own back in the day. Was always curious as to WHY that happened.
Anyway, the SuperGrafx is just too bad a ramma jamma to be denied.

It's something to do with one of chemicals in the plastic.

Yeah, not smoking around a white console is a pretty good way of not making it go yellow on ya...
