I think that scale would be the best possible way to enjoy a camel trophy defender today.

Right?! I just had visions of buying the Tamaya all metal hilux kit, getting an fzj80 body and building it to this lever of detail, then driving it around with POV goggles.  More money and time that I care to invest but that would be so much fun to play with.

Which Tamiya kit is that? I’m only familiar with the RC4WD

Don’t forget, you also need the transmitter ($270 MSRP) and a battery & charger. You can also add the “ Multi-Function Control Unit ” for another $702 :

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

DESCRIPTIONTamiya kicks up the realism for its 3-speed transmission trucks up another notch with this light, sound, and vibration effects unit. All functions are controllable via a 4-channel transmitter (sold separately) to make all the 3-Speed High lifts even more impressive!!!
10 types of high-brightness LEDs (including optional LEDs) for a total of up to 33 lights can be controlled to depict various realistic light actions while driving. They can also light up in pre-set patterns during Demo Mode for a brilliant shelf display.

Various functions packed in the unit!  
Built to easily fit into Tamiya 1/10 electric RC pickup trucks such as the Ford F-350 High Lift, Toyota Hilux etc., Tamiya adds authentic feeling by linking the real sound, the functions of various lights, and body vibration together. The engine sound can be selected from two types of large displacement V8 and small displacement turbo engines: engine start sound, idling sound, throttle operation. In addition, the engines sound will change when actually changing as you shift through the gears. Furthermore, the body vibration changes according to the engine rotation number which gives the model a sense of weight. This unit can also be used for various lighting control.

Examples of Sounds:  
 Engine start Sound  Idling sound  Running sound  Engine stop sound  Shift up engine sound  Shift down engine sound  Horn sound  blinker sound  hazard sound  timer count sound  warning sound

Control a variety of lighting via the transmitter  
The transmitter or the control unit can control the lighting of various lights. It can also perform the lighting linked with the truck operation such as a turn signal lamp, brake light etc. Also, the head light reproduces the lighting pattern with imaged HID  Head light  High beam  Load Lights  Auxiliary Lights  Blinkers  Hazards  Reverse Lamps  Brake Lamps  Functions that can be lit when other options are installed
