Microsoft has unveiled the range of Xbox 360 faceplates us Europeans will get to choose from when the console launches here on December 2.

There are four different designs to choose from - Silver, Hot Rod, Sun and Woody. We definitely prefer the latter, though unlike the Japanese version, it doesn't feature the inscription "The Door to Eternal Imagination", sadly.

All the faceplates are designed to resist scratching and peeling and are easily interchangeable, according to Microsoft. They're priced at GBP 14.99 each.

If none of the faceplates pictured take your fancy, don't worry - more designs are on the way soon.
