Identifying car with blocks

[Claki]

When DS1 was a baby I got a free sample of a little car with several block pieces that snap onto the frame. It's very simple, nothing like Automoblox. DS1 now plays with it a lot and I was going to look for more. Any idea what I'm talking about?

Ikea makes a set of 3 cars like that - it is about $12 IIRC.

Thanks! I will look for it next time we're at IKEA. Though I know that's not the kind we have. Does anyone remember? I think I got it from a tip on Babycheapskate. I'd like to get more of the same so they are interchangeable. Maybe I will figure out how to post a picture.

I remember it starting with an M, possibly. But it's not magatiles or megablocks. But something similar?

Let's see if this image works:

Trio blocks? I remember missing out on free sample of a trio block car from Fisher Price.

Posted before I saw the pic. Those are definitely Trio!

Trio blocks get lots of play here. This set has a car.

Trio gets tons of love here.
I've found sets at tjmax and the like.

I put these in our eggs for the Easter egg hunt this year. I'm hoping they will get played with here. I know they are very popular with some of our friends.

OT:
Hi MacMacMoo - It's great to see you!! :waving4:
