I picked up the Tundra from them today. As soon as I saw it, I had to ahve it. the tailgate even really works, and has a bed extender with it too. Probably one of the best bodies I have seen in person (not that I go looking for this stuff, since I'm a newbie).

That's the only real reason I bought the damn thing. I wouldn't mind having a few bodies period of it.

It's super hard to find scale toyota stuff IMHO, and this just works.

If you stretch it out to a 1/10th scale size you can use the Mangler Body from Radio Shack. I use it in my Tamiya XC.

Warning COG Increases significantly.

This is a 1/18 CJ-5 from tower. If someone bought this you could make a killer scale RC.

Might start to resemble the COG of a fullsize rig then though.

I was reading a thread in the small scale forum and they were taking about a truck from Zap Toys available at Wal Mart. On the Zap Toys site this 1:12 Toyota was listed, but I didn't see a cost.

Yeah, looks similar. But look at the bed and rear fenderwell of the Radio Shack Tnrda, the Zap Toys Tundra looks nicer. Wonder how much it costs. Also click on to their Pro Racers, there's a nice 1:12 Bronco.

I have the tundra already from RS, and I don't many RC bodies that have a real workin tailgate, and I like the body I got. But I'll buy just about any toyota truck body I can find
