Does anyone have one of the new Broken Finish versions ? [I think Noel had one on order.]
I have a sample of the sheepskin, it looks very good.

Yes, I have one. It's probably one of the first production Rough Wear broken grain B-3s from what Gary told me.
The grain is very nice and the finish is semi-gloss on some of the sheepskin panels and more matte on others. The color is not overly red but more of a vintage brown, I'd say. The fleece color is a gorgeous cinnamon brown. Overall, it's much better than I ever imagined.
I'm currently on travel for my job so I can't take pictures at the moment.
I promise to snap a few photos when I return home.

That's great news. I really like the samples I have here, one of which I washed and tumbled hot to see what happened. It went very creased and more matt, not an improvement.
I did ask whether they could reproduce the gloss and character on other hides, but it's solely for the RW.

The sample looks very nice, better than the previous material.
