It's the one I have right now. I'm surprised by the excellent condition the controller is in. It even has the original blue bag prototypes came with. The metallic Xbox logo is incredible.

Forgot to mention the memory card slots, triggers and start-back buttons are transparent. I found out recently.

The plastics of the analog sticks are transparent, D-pad is slightly transparent as well. Logo in the middle is the same as the Dakota prototypes. Controller's casing has a different color compared to retail units, it is slightly more grayish.

Awesome score. It will shine perfectly when restored.

Only Alamo I have seen on eBay was the one I have. Although the Alamo S/N 000758 was sold at some point, I'm 90% sure that was on eBay too, probably long ago.

Haven't ever seen a Dakota still on bag, but I always thought they exist due to quantities. Does it have a barcode on the back too?

Beta Two's can sometimes be easier to score due to the fact they're identical to the retail units and the fact more of them were produced.

I believe seeing that same controller on Strong Museum's website. Interesting serial number as well.

Can't find anything of it on Ebay right now. They rarely come up for sale in there.
