RC Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Replica Rock Climber

The 1/10 Scale RC Toyota Land Cruiser 40 4x4 Off Road Machine by Tamiya is no-joke-ready-to-rock.

The new RC Toyota Land Cruiser 40 by popular Japanese radio-controlled car maker Tamiya is the ultimate answer to all those R/C fans tinkering and modifying their mini machines, converting them into big-wheeled rock climbers. This Land Cruiser boasts a true-to-scale body replica made from lightweight polycarbonate mounted on an all-new CR-01 chassis. We’re not sure what that means exactly, but if this Land Cruiser performs as awesome as it looks, we’re game.

Some required equipment includes a 2-channel radio system, charger, battery pack, PS spray, 8 AA batteries, and small tools to get this 4WD mini-monster with a fully-articulating suspension and fat-ass tires on its way.
