Wow, I have to admit, I might be tempted to get it if they ever release it in Europe (not likely, but hey, we did get the Pikachu 3DS XL, so everything's possible.... right?). I really loce Charizard, and the design is pretty neat, I really dig the flame at the back too. One of my favorite special edition for the 3DS XL.

But yeah, I'll always be amazed by that sort of lottery, where the present is the right to buy something... a rather peculiar 'present' :p
