    The real prize is the Pirates faceplate. I don't believe any of these images were ever released but I could be wrong.

    These 4 are $300 shipped to the USA.

    #2 black & grey pattern has stickers which could easily be removed.

    #3 mountain scene is missing the controller port door.

    Are these true prototypes? If so where did you get them?

    Not sure what a "true prototype" is but they came from someone in the industry. If you are asking did I make these or have them made the answer is no. They were part of the production process as a planned product to be released and to my knowledge they were not. I bought them as part of a collection of production prototypes, many of which I have not yet shared.

    Microsoft Created like 10 faceplates, and they had a Community poll type thing to pick one of them. The others were never commercially Sold.Those are some of the Prototype faceplates never put into production.

    Id be interested but 300 is too high for me.

    The way I see it by buying them all the Disney Pirates faceplate is more than worth the price of admission and the other 3 are free. I've seen rare faceplates get more than this price.

    If you want just #1 #2 and #3 it would be $120 shipped to the USA.

    If you want just #1 or #2 or #3 it would be $50 shipped to the USA.

    If you want just #4 it would be $285 shipped to the USA.

    I really like that one with the black pattern, unfortunately I cant bring my self to spend 50 on a faceplate, even if it is one of a kind ( wow i need a better job, lol). whoever buys it is a lucky son of a bitch:icon_bigg.

    North Olmstead huh? That is right around the corner.

    Well for $1 you can see it in person.
    for $3 you can smell it
    and for $5 you can take your picture with it.

    jk :p

    I wasn't aware of anyone else in the area who cared about these things. Did you go to the CCAG show this fall?

    Except if you are looking at this item you already have a 360 and so do millions of others. The Pirates faceplate is well worth the price alone.

    You need to remember there's a lot of things sold on here for the cost of a new 360.

    What's more valuable to you, a console that anyone can buy from a store, or an item that there is only one of in existence?

    If I haven't already met you at your store, then I will probably see you at CCAG in May (helping Mike out with it this year).
