Do they remind you of the bus you used to ride going too school?

Vic are they about the size of the HLW mini series stuff? I have been wanting to make a boxcar from a HLW mini flat.

They are actually smaller, I made boxcar on an HLW flat, I’ll try to take some pics of it and post them here for comparison
