Ed Webb have been customizing faceplates for some time now. He’s created some of the best looking faceplates out there. Believe it or not, there is a market for these custom faceplates as well as other unique and original promotional faceplates given by publishers and developers (ie. Bioshock faceplate, etc.). At a 2008 quote from Original Xbox Magazine, “I attended Zero Hour at the 360 launch, when the idea of personalized plates was new,†says Ed Webb, a 41-year-old Xbox MVP better known as SpaceGhost2K. “Time has passed, and the only personalization I’ve seen is people deciding which corporate plate they want on their ’box. That’s not ‘personal’ to me.†He showed off a chunck of his personalized faceplates at the Microsoft store event in Mission Viejo, CA back in August.

Next up is a lot of 2 rare original Xbox: Limited Edition Halo 2 Clear Blue Xbox with an upgraded 120gb HDD and a 1st Anniversary Edition Smoke Black Xbox from Japan. Both systems are in one listing. The xboxes are a little dusty but considering the rarity of these things, I don’t think you’d mind.
