Although there are still Creator 3-in-1 sets, the Creator brand is being used for more generic sets. This set does not come with any minifigures, and is actually smaller in scale than the usual vehicle size. Therefore I was looking for some alternatives in my neighbourhood and I found some tall grass which could double for bamboo or jungle vegetation.

All the people in the videos and comment section made it clear that 40469 was most definitely NOT minifigure scale.I love that you can put minifigures in, though they will tend to slide off the passenger seat if it's moved around a bit, and the driver fits quite snugly.

Bit what tipped it over the edge were the two studs on the driver’s seat – perfect for a minifigure to sit on.
