This just came to my attention and I couldn't wait to share it with our members!
It's a legitimate contest and the prize is nothing short of awesome! 

Foto Promos has teamed up with our friends at Spider Holster and several other partners to give away a Leica camera valued at $10,000 and they're doing it at PhotoPlus Expo 2015 in New York on October 24th. (I'm going to be there and you really should check it out, too.)

Here's the prize info, direct from the source:

"Inspired by the first olive-colored Leica, the M-P (Typ 240) DigitalRangefinder Camera Safari Set combines the distinctly colored M-P camera body
with a Summicron-M 35mm f/2 ASPH. lens with classic round lens hood, a cowhide
carrying strap, and matching leather SD and business card holders. This camera
is nice and compact which makes it a great travel camera!

The Leica M-P Digital Rangefinder Camera Safari Set willbe awarded to one winner on October 24, 2015 at PhotoPlus Expo 2015 in New York."

Here's a short video that will help whet your appetite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fh-_1IcFKB8
 
Although you don't need to be present to win,this Expo is something you really don't want to miss. Here's a link to the
information and registration site: http://www.photoplusexpo.com/ As I mentioned, I'm going to be there and I'm looking forward to meeting and
hanging out with all the great people who have helped make PhotographyTalk what
it is today!

I was thinking the same as Ninja, for the safari color scheme I would have rather had like a desert tan.
