I have the Proline version, looks the most accurate to me ... have said that, I'm in the process of modifying it.
I reciently bought an X-Trail Chassis, have swapped over from original AX10 chassis, a few weeks ago the lid came off the FJ, still sorting out the final (hidden) body mounting.

A local store to me was selling the Nikko FJ's for $30 so I figure I can afford to throw away the rest after I salvage what I can of the electronics. (It also came equipped with rechargable batteries.)

I may have misread the thread, I thought havik was meaning "old school" Toyota Landcruisers ?

The NIKKO brand FJ is more scale looking than the New Bright one......

IMO the nikko and newbright bodys look like toys.

This fj body looks the most scale to my eye
