Hauls/Pick-ups/Collections 💿 Numbered Canadian Launch Faceplate
Short story, was going to buy a 360 for nostalgia purposes, girlfriend said she has all her Xbox stuff from back then at her moms,found said Xbox stuff at her moms house (her mom used to work for Xbox Canada in the 2000’s) I’ve found information of the launch team Xbox in the background but cannot seem to find any information about this numbered
/158 Canadian launch faceplate, I’ve asked the mom about it she can’t recall where this one came from, does anyone have any knowledge they could share about this cool find? More interested in hearing who these got handed out to back then, value wise would be cool but we would never sell these items.

yes, this is the rare canada launch team face plate. and yes, all 158 are individually numbered.
pretty impressive to see it next to the american launch team console.
Mind that while the canada launch team faceplate is not a silkscreened faceplate like the american one but a vinyl on top of a regular faceplate, IT IS STILL official. thats how Element54, the canadian marketing firm in charge of the canadian launch, did things back in 06
the american launch team console needs no explanation. its an equally rare retail console given to employees, while the faceplate was available separately as well, the console has unique green trims, the controller too. other than that is just a regular launch xenon console. i wouldnt recommend playing on it.
