   Pretty to watch, pardon the (intended) pun.  :-X Now, just a matter of very little time until we see that 1:32 Camel from Wingnut Wings!

And here I was, adamant that I'm not a Camel fan and will not buy a WNW Camel. Darn.

It's gorgeous.

Could this beauty provide the impetus for WnW to push the Camel to the front of the release queue??? ;)
I've bee saving my Spada Belgian Camel decals for just such an event!
