The USB wrist band is is super cool, I love it! I could just keep this for myself if I have a choice!

The mug in black, the logo and the photo of the XBox One console on the mug is also in black. Someone had a bad day printing this mug out as it would have thought it would be better in green to show off the photo of the Console but nevertheless it's really nice and added bit of magic.
