I bought the kit online. It is a Tamiya Cr01 Toyota 40. It came as a kit. It has about 500 parts and nearly 1,000 screws. Everything is hand built, axles, tranny, body has to be detailed and painted. It was a lot of fun to build...my 5 year old had a blast. We painted it the same color as my FJ and added a roof rack. I opted to build the locked diffs. Its a true rock crawler and is fun to drive. Climbs stairs and has enough power to spin tires and do donuts!
