This should be accompanied by some sound, like Jingle Bell or something of that style :D Nice kitsch!
Merry Christmas to SL Group addicts ;)

Jeez, but at least the lights are white and not some sick neon :-)

Merry Christmas to y'all!

Do the lights work on 12 Volt or do they have to be plugged into an outlet?

Nice job !

Here is my Christmas card for this year for you to enjoy.

I wonder if that was the special "Kris Kringle" option. Great shot for the Holidays (both cars)

Merry Christmas to all!

Seasonal Greetings to all!



This IS a commercial card and yes, I did clear the store out of their stock so if you're on my Christmas Card list, you may well see one of these one day!

Nice job!  Flashy enough to be funny and restrained enough to be pretty.
