Summary
An officialXbox Series Stoaster is now available for purchase, for all those gamers looking to add a touch of their hobby to another room in the house. Thetoaster that closely resembles an Xbox Series S consolewas first rumored to be in the works in March 2023, when a presumably premature store listing for the device appeared online. The toaster was reported to be the first in a series of planned Xbox merchandise that will range from pen holders to mouse pads to ramen bowls.
There is already anXbox Series X mini fridge, which launched in 2021 and sold out almost immediately. Microsoft released an updated version of the fridge that is still available for purchase today and has predominantly positive reviews, though several buyers have complained about its short life span. Either way, as a $40 novelty item, the Series X mini fridge retains its value even once it no longer keeps cans of soda cool. And when they eventually disappear from stores, many people will likely see the fridges as coveted collector’s items.
The same may be the eventual fate of the new Xbox Series S toaster, which is currently available forpurchase from Walmart for $39.99. The appliance isXboxbranded, and the toast it pops out has the iconic spherical X logo imprinted on it. As much as is reasonably possible, the toaster truly resembles the smaller Xbox current-gen console. Currently, there’s no indication whether this is a limited-run device or if it will remain available indefinitely like the Series X mini fridge.
Xbox Series S Toaster Details
As for more practical amenities, the Xbox Series S toaster has six toast levels, an LED timer, automatic shutoff, removable crumb tray, anti-jam function, non-stick plates, and an extra long slot that suits regular and artisan-sized bread, bagels, frozen waffles, and English muffins.
Along with figurines of beloved video game characters and iconic weapons, replicas of favorite consoles have long been a staple purchase for many gamers.Hallmark has released a range of gaming themed ornamentsthat closely resemble some of the most memorable consoles, including the original Nintendo Entertainment System, Super Nintendo, Sega Dreamcast, and Genesis. The incredibly detailed trinkets have proven popular enough that they often sell out quickly, partly thanks to scalpers.
In 2023, along with the Xbox Series X version, Microsoft also released amini fridge design that looks like aMinecraftCreeper. That similarly has proven to be extremely popular and, luckily, is also still available for purchase. And those dedicated gamers who manage to grab all three Microsoft appliances will one day have a truly novelty collection.
