Haven't seen this posted anywhere and I checked eBay for a picture but nothing came up. The guys over at xbox360achievements.org are running a contest where they are giving away four NFL Head Coach 09 Faceplates. If someone has seen them somewhere or owns one please add a picture to this post. Thanks guys!
This is the plate:

no profit or interestQuote:

UbiSoft does lots of Tom Clancy plates, and Namco does quite a few. MS just did non-game plates to save royalty fees, and nobody wanted them. Rather than fix the problem, they just abandoned faceplates and license the IP's out to MadCatz.
