There will be 5 colors in the standard Brooklin range and 1 yellow w/no stripes to match the modified Z/28 in the NB Center Collection. Click here to see the details.

With other, mostly less than stellar, 1/43 1969 Camaros on the market, it appears that the obvious goal here is to produce the quintessential 1/43 1969 Camaro.  After viewing these pics, I'd say Brooklin is off to a great start.   Stay tuned, right?    😎 😎

Spy photos of the NB Center car...

Looking good, I have yellow one with stripes on order since my other '69 Camaro's are a green RS and a blue Yenko. The couple of things I see in looking at the pattern are the front and back glass window trim look to be to proud of the surface. I'm hoping they can be thinned down. I also see that the road lights look like one is higher than the other. Could be the angle on the photo but both items worth a look. I'm looking forward to the model.

@chris Quintessential? They will have their work cut out for them to better this Stamp model.

I have six 1969s already, so I have not ordered one. I hope their next effort is something that has not been so widely done.

@parisi50, Darren at Brooklin says, "The front and back trim are proud. I will be taking them down but because of the design of the car, the only real way, apart from foiling which is time consuming and is not up to our standards, is to scrape the window. The problem is they have to be proud to enable scraping. But I will reduce as much as possible. 

The road lights be spot on as it’s from the print. The reason it looks off is because it’s on a piece of tissue that isn’t flat. So the model is sitting at an angle."

@jkuvakas Thanks to Darren for looking into the items in question. The thinner the trim around the windows, the better to meet scale.

You're 100% correct; I completely forgot about this beauty. Brooklin TRULY has a tuff act  to follow!  😬 😬 😬
