As I said in an earlier post on the subject-- I bet there will be at least one more coming too, since these six don't have any of the "Comic" night fighting Camels in the offerings yet--dare we hope? And also, is it too greedy to ask for a Dolphin at this point? That would almost complete Sopwith's stable (with the exception of a "Baby"). VR, Russ
