A handful of Jeep owners have recently become enthralled with the challenge of finding tiny designs of characters, animals, and objects that are carved or painted on their cars.

One TikTok user, Jackie Foster, revealed his Jeep's "Easter egg" in a video on Tuesday, which sparked a fascination in Jeep cars' whimsical shapes.

"So I bought my first car, and a fun fact about Jeeps is that they have a hidden animal called an Easter egg," Foster can be heard saying in the video.

Foster continued: "Well, I couldn't find my Easter egg for the longest time, and one day I was pumping my gas and I saw a spider coming at me. I realized it was my Easter egg."

The discreet spider shape blends in with the black color of the material surrounding the gas tank, according to Foster's TikTok clip, which makes it tricky to decipher at first glance.

Foster's video seemed to inspire other Jeep owners to search for secret shapes on their cars.

TikTok user Phinney_716 showed two Easter eggs on their Jeep vehicle: one on the front windshield, and another design underneath the passenger seat.

"I just thought this was a paint blotch," the user said in a voiceover, showing a painted shape hidden on the exterior of the car's front window. "It's a Jeep on a hill."

Then, the video showed what looked like a secret treasure map drawing on the underside of the passenger seat.

Another TikTok user, Hunter Hirst, appeared to scope out three Easter eggs on their Jeep Renegade: a Godzilla-looking figure on the car's back windshield, a truck icon located on the front window, and another animal design near the gas pump.

A 2015 article from Car and Driver magazine that documented 30 shapes found on the Jeep Renegade Trailhawk indicates that Jeep's design choices aren't anything brand new.

However, the reignited interest in Jeep's hidden gems seems to be keeping people entertained.

One Jeep owner shared in a Twitter video that she found a lizard-like design underneath her car's front windshield wipers.

Jeep owner Cristyn Polston told Insider that she found on her car a design that looked like a carved dinosaur fossil.

One user found a pair of flip flops hidden on a Jeep Renegade.

Another Twitter user found an Easter egg in the headlights — a metal decal shaped like the Jeep icon.

Representatives for Jeep did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
