Favorite lego cars

These are some of my absolute favorite cars and vehicles.

1) Below:I like this car which could be amphibious.  Also the color scheme is a good shade


2) below:
This gas truck is so well done I think due to the antique style.  I also am partial to grey colors and shades.

3) Below: This truck below reminds me of the green truck we used to play army men with; it just has a neat
Appearance

(Green plastic army men truck)
Below The real truck I saw in a nearby truck yard/depot



4) Below: I like the color and the grill slanted back and ability to fit 2 minifigs inside the cabin


The white car has so much detail and sits 2 minifigs comfortly.

5) Above: from Pharoahs quest set
I like the different tires sizes and the tan color
The tilted grill is also a neat feature.

6) below:
I Always liked small sets that I could afford as a kid

7) and 8) below:



 


Above 4 pics..loved the design and sleek appearance of the yellow convertable as well as the color and ability to make different cars with the set called Land busters.  Also I liked the size.


10) below is a another small set I could afford as a kid mowing yards.

11) above is a racing car with smooth curves.  I like the front grill/air intake




12) above: simple but yet appears complex



13)I like any airport service vehicles.  Also I got these for 8.99 each
Even though the vehicle is small, that is typical for service vehicle so it is more "realistic"


14) Above:
I like the above 2 trucks as they appear real.  I also like the color scheme.  Also I like the usage of an arch which blends.


So that's the picks for favorite vehicles!

Smooth tile 2016

 I found sets at Dollar General in 2016 called Structures by Block Tech.

The boxes looked like this 


I found multiples and found the pieces were good with a lot of tiles that I wanted to use for a subway or train car
In the end this is what I had
Collected

So eventually I'll have a subway train!
Other people have had bad issues with this brand but I've been happy.

How is zuru eggs compatable

 I recently saw a max eggʻ that said it was compatible with "major" brands.  I opened the egg and there is no way that these are compatible...they are more consistent with the nanoblocks in size 








 



I won't buy anymore as these are for kids just to play with vs building a model for display.
