Tamiya has released Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Pick-Up in 1/12 R/C Models GF01 AWD drivetrain assembly kit under Off-Road Monster Trucks category

This is the NEW GF-01 chassis platform. The first model to be featured on the chassis is a pick-up version of the Toyota Land Cruiser 40, a world-famous off-road vehicle that needs little introduction. It was produced for almost 25 years and much loved for its durability and adaptability. The GF-01 chassis plays off the successful and fun line-up of RC kits such as the Wild Willy 2, Volkswagen Type 2 and the Farm King Wheelie. Whereas those kits featured a 2WD and easy to wheelie platform, the new GF-01 is a 4WD incarnation with the motor directly placed in the center in order to drive the gears in the front and rear gearboxes.
