Victory Motorcycles has released a series of videos showing a behind-the-scenes look behind its 2013 product brochure. This year’s brochure was notable for Victory‘s tie-in with Playboy magazine, including a photoshoot at the famous Playboy mansion.

The brochure featured three Playboy models, Miss November 2011 Ciara Price, Miss January 2011 Anna Sophia Berglund and Miss April 2012 Raquel Pomplun. Victory selected one photo from each model and had fans vote for which one they want to appear on the cover of the brochure, with fans picking a picture of Pomplun on a Sunset Red Victory Cross Country.

The three models later autographed that Cross Country which Victory will auction off, with all proceeds going to Operation Gratitude, a non-profit organization that sends care packages to deployed members of the U.S. military.
