I have never seen a case this well packed as they have done it, you can see how the top and bottom are packed in foam to prevent the case from moving during shipping. It was in excellent condition when we got it due to the packing. Under the top protective piece of cardboard was the rear static guard that is used for exterior cable management.The first glance at it shocked me because it's alot nicer looking in person than in the pictures. I guess this case has to be seen in real life to appricate the quality and details, but we will try to show you as much as possible in this review.

The front door has a very nice looking dragon and on the bottom there are fan grills and some kind of display that we will look closer on later in the review.

Sizewise this is a standard miditower case that supports four 5.25 slots and two floppy drives. The door opens easy but it still stays closed even if you move the case- On the top we have the handle that so you can carry this case around, there is also the power button with the leds.
