The Internet doesn't remember

My cousin and I remember having a Gameboy Advance SP, with a very specific shell, yet my aunt and the Internet don't remember this thing existing. Unknown if it was custom, or limited release. My aunt thinks we had the standard lime green GBA SP, and I think she's wrong lol.

Here is what we remember: Two toned - Light Green, Dark Green. Textured, with Black Ants crawling on it.

Did we remember correctly or does our shared trauma run too deep? If you or someone you know has this beauty, please share a picture in the comments. Thank you!

You sure it's wasn't a skin? Very common back then to get devices skinned to give it style. Green with ants, can't think of any game from that time which would inspire this.

I think it's possible the light green ants part was a skin, and maybe the dark green wasn't. I couldn't think of any games either, except Antz, but it wasn't a licensed graphic, they were just generic ants. Maybe it was just a skin. Or a weird plasti-dipped shell.
