Object Class: Euclid Keter
Special Containment Procedure: instances of SCP-4XXX are to be stored in a 27.9 cm by 27.9 cm by 27.9 cm Steel storage box of at least 3 cm thick and lined with 2 cm lead on the outside and 1 cm teflon on the inside. The steel storage boxes containing instances of SCP-4XXX are to then be placed in a secure storage cell at site ██.Instances of SCP-4XXX are not to be removed without the written approval of Site ██’s director.
A 2 cm thick steel button-lock is to be placed on SCP-4XXX to prevent any accidental depression during transport and storage. The 3 dials are also to be locked individually with 2 cm dial-locks. All three dials are to be turned to 0 when in storage.
The locks are only to be removed in tests. Dials that are not used in testing must be kept locked. Any tests must be done with the oversight of site ██'s director.
The cardboard box that the first instance of SCP-4XXX was found in has been deemed non-anomalous, however, it should be stored in a nearby storage room.
Addendum 1: After tests 4XXX-1540 though 4XXX-1544, only D-Class personnel are authorized to press the button. None D-Class personnel are not permitted to be in the same room as SCP-4XXX during testing.
Addendum 2: After test 4XXX-█████, under no circumstances should all three dials be turned more than 50% at the same time.
Description: SCP-4XXX is a children's toy approximately 25.4 cm by 25.4 cm by 25.4 cm. made of an unknown material that resembles Tin, however is much more durable and contains no rust despite its estimated age of somewhere between 40 to 50 years old. The toy itself is black with a silver bottom. it has a large red button that reads "Press Me" in English on the top side. The front has 3 dials each labeled from left to right; "Power", "Volume", and "Fun". The backside opens during specific manifestations after the red button is pressed. the Left and Right sides however are black and have no features.
Addendum 3: Two instances of SCP-4XXX are currently at Site ██. SCP-4XXX-1 is considered for all intents and purposes the original. The Second instance, known from here on as SCP-4XXX-2 was created during a test SCP-4XXX-1 when it manifested a near identical, but newer copy of itself. SCP-4XXX-2 did not however come with a box.
The original box we assume that SCP-4XXX-1 was sold in, contains no anomalous properties as far as research has revealed. However, for informative purposes it has been sampled, photographed, and stored in a nearby storage cell at site ██. The box itself matches the style and properties of toy packaging from the 1960’s. The art on the box depicts a boy of 8 to 10 years old pressing the big red button on top. The sides contain a long list of features that the toy is supposably has ranging from blowing bubbles to [REDACTED]. These features are approximately 80% accurate to testing. It should be noted that due to the sheer number of possible combinations and the randomness of SCP-4XXX, it is still possible that the listed features are 100% accurate. The backside has no remarkable features.
SCP-4XXX-1 was found in 19██ in a small-town toy store of ██████, Utah after a small explosion killed several people. Amnesiacs were given to witnesses, a cover story was broadcast on the local news, and SCP-4XXX-1 was relocated to Site ██.
When SCP-4XXX's red button is pressed, a somewhat random manifestation occurs within ██m of SCP-4XXX. These manifestations range from harmless to potentially world ending scenarios.
The 3 Dials on the front of SCP-4XXX seem to somewhat correlate with the manifestations. See Test Results for examples.
SCP-4XXX’s seems to be completely immune to their own effects and is incredibly resilient to damage, however not completely invulnerable. The back plate that opens during some manifestations is not able to be forced open by other means. Multiple external tests have been performed on instances of SCP-4XXX to reveal their inner workings, however almost all of them have came up with inconclusive results. this includes X-Ray, Sonar-imagery, Thermal-imagery, [REDACTED], and Electro-magnetic scanning.
Addendum 4: Due to test 4XXX-█████, nearly 95% of test logs have been destroyed by accident and SCP-4XXX. The surviving Logs have been re-organized and any further tests must be done with the oversight of Site ██'s Director, but are heavily discouraged.
Test Logs Each test was performed in groups of five. A Researcher would turn the dials accordingly and press the button. The results were documented.

4XXX-1 seemingly did nothing at first, but the D-class
whom pressed the button, D-60645 had a drastic shift
in personality and claimed to be D-60450. D-60450
was the D-class that was next in line to take D-60645’s
place if he were to expire during the test.
The “Real” D-60450 was interviewed quickly after.
It was soon revealed that D-60450 and D-60645
have had their minds swapped.
Both were taken to another area for further testing. |

| Notes: Further investigation of Test 02529 revealed that SCP-4XXX may have been the cause of a major Containment Breach at a seperate of SCP-███ by interfering with its magnetic locks and letting it out. However, not enough evidence is available to prove the incident. Site director ███ was personally reprimanded by the 05 council. |

Agent ██████ Interview with DR. ████ a month after the Incident.
Interviewer: Hello, Dr. ████. How are you feeling?
Dr. ████: I haven't slept in weeks.
Dr. ████ places his head on the desk
Interviewer: Can you tell us what happened at Site ██ on the date of ██/██/████?
Dr. ████: I… I don't not to talk about it…. the screams… the fire… the things that…. that were let loose.
Interviewer: We are aware of the Containment Breach during the incident, but can you tell us about the tests themselves?
Dr. ████: No! ive been a researcher at the foundation for 5 ████ing Years! I am fully aware what we may have contained! No… when i say we let things loose, i mean…. SCP-4XXX literally opened [DATA REDACTED].
Interviewer: Was anything familiar? i mean were the things that SCP-4XXX released familiar with anything you have seen at site ██?
Dr. ████ visibly upset at the comment
Dr. ████: Ok, ill start with the first test started with D-59281 pressing the red button with the dials set to ██% Power, ██% Volume, and ██% Fun. We were expecting something…. big…. but D-59281 did not react at all. around 30 seconds later, ████ing bubbles appeared.
Interviewer: That doesn't seem so bad, what happened on the next test?
Dr. ████: D-59281 was told to press the button again. after standing there for what seemed like an eternity…
Dr. ████ started sobbing
Dr. ████: The maniac pressed the god damn button ██ times in a row! Before security could stop him, it was too late. Site ██ felt like it was being ripped in half by unknown forces. Researchers exploding left and right, Guards laughing uncontrollably, the walls crumbled around us, several other SCP's got out and started attacking other facilities.
Interviewer: Why wasn't their any precautions put in place to stop D-class from pressing the button multiple times?
Dr. ████ slams the desk
Dr. ████: My best friend ████ing turned purple than exploded 2 feet from my face! so i don't know! you're buddy-buddy with the god damn 05, why don't you ask why they kept Site director ████ in charge?
Interviewer: I may be interviewing you here, but i do not have that clearance level. Tell me, aside from the incident, why do you feel site director ████ shouldn't have been in charge?
Dr. ████: At first… director ████ was fine. he kept to procedure, modified future tests with the safety of staff in mind. Even requested re-classification of SCP-4XXX after it duplicated itself. Then… he just kept taking bigger and bigger risks with SCP-4XXX. Despite the clear danger it had possessed, he wanted to keep testing 4XXX's power.
interviewer: What do you mean? Wasn't he keeping to a consistent testing schedule of SCP-4XXX?
Dr. ████: He was. However once we started using D-Class he started justifying bigger risks. We even asked him if we should use some sort of robotic mechanism to press the button. director ████ claimed that the results would be inconsistent or invalid if we started using a robot instead of people at this point.
Interviewer: In hindsight, that might have stopped the inci…
Dr. ████ stands up
Dr. ████: ████ YOU AND YOUR HINDSIGHT. My friends are dead because some Jack███ became completely obsessed with an SCP and let it get the best of him. You want hindsight? Then we probably should have locked that god damn toy up and thrown away the key. For all we know the damn thing probably messed with his mind and..
Interviewer: THATS ENOUGH DR. ████. Security, please escort Dr. ████ to the medical bay for Class-A amnesiac treatment.
Dr. ████: No! no! you can't do this! YOU NEED TO LOCK UP THE BOX!
Interviewer: Goodbye Dr. ████. we will see you in the morning.

Closing Statement: Agent ██████ requested SCP-4XXX be moved to Site ██ and testing continued with Site ██'s Permission.
