2 French kids (from Belgium) swap magical eggplants for one Shockingly Green holiday pointy tree......subsequently,when the tree "becomes" a teardrop camper,one of the kids runs off,never to be seen again......................when this newly formed "Rig",lodges itself on the short-line track,no one seemed the least surprised

Another great video JB. The Ronettes version of Sleigh Ride was always a favorite.

I think we all cherish the memory laden,pre-crazy Phil Spector ,"wall of sound" era  ........it was the best and brightest Smile .........nowadays,I gravitate to the less "produced" clear and crisp production of the mostly younger artists......like young Leon Redbone for instance

if you left those in place for 16 months,or,if uncle Pete had visited on multiple occasions,you could wrap one around the Yule Log for a makeshift fire-starter

Thank you Bob......my acquisition was the "highly sought after" turquoise Cameo.......but enough of that.....did YOU, perhaps, unwrap a new diecast today??

@john-barry I didn't JB. My latest 1/24 models were the Automodello 54 Buick Skylark and the Pontiac Fiero GT. Your post did, however, have me go to the display case and have a fresh look at the turquoise Cameo.
