If you love retro gadgets and share an equal passion for Snoopy and the gang, you’ll love this nostalgia-inducing collection from Peanuts and Retrospekt. The vintage film camera customizer launched a special line to celebrate the 50th-anniversary of Beagle Scouts.
Introduced in 1974, Snoopy led the Beagle Scouts to embody the “spirit of exploration and the beauty of nature.” And we get to see glimpses of that through a special-edition Polaroid camera, a 35mm film camera, and a portable cassette player. All showcasing nods to the charming and adorable scouts.
The Polaroid 600 is the central piece in the collection. It’s made from refurbished parts of vintage Polaroid models released in the 1980s and 90s. It comes in a vibrant forest green, which you see across the collection, and different graphics related to the comics. Each camera gets interchangeable patches of the gang to customize the look further.
Retrospekt also included an FC-11 35mm film camera in the collection. The FC-11 appeals to film camera lovers. It comes with a fixed-focus lens and optional flash.
There’s also a CP-81 portable cassette player. So, if you’ve started collecting cassettes, or held on to your collection, you could listen to them on this cute player. It even comes with a matching pair of headphones!
Retrospekt also introduced two camera bags with forest green and tan hues, reminding us of classic outdoor gear. The bags are lined with Peanuts comic strips featuring the scouts, too.
