I do not have any real images of the upcoming  Nikon mirrorless interchangeable lens camera but I received two mockups that will give you a pretty good idea of the camera’s design:

Here are some details in addition to those I published earlier today:

• Similar clean design like the Coolpix P300.
• The camera will not have any dials on the top plate.
• Speaker will be located on top plate.
• There will be a pop-up flash and/or flash hot shoe for external flash.
• The new mirrorless lenses may have electronic zoom buttons (see this patent).
• There will be some functionality that will be introduced for the first time in a mirrorless camera.
• The camera will probably be available in different colors.

I was told also that the mirrorless camera looks very much like the drawing filed in this patent (eventhough the camera will probably not have the patented protective mount cover):
