Nick Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 New video of the Kyosho Suzuki Jimny 1:18th! The Jimny Sierra’s popularity is earned through a commitment to functionality and performance. This 1:18-scale MINI-Z 4x4 Readyset accurately recreates the signature features of this very popular compact Japanese 4X4 truck, like the unique square body shape and the bold wheel flares over the generous wheel wells.

Nick Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 This looks great, I'm actually tempted for my garden! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stimpy Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 That looks great! Have a few Zooks myself so be nice to add a mini me option 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4inbrain Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 How much are these kinda trucks in general? Like, what kind of price are we expecting roughly? I am interested, if the price is right - could be fun having a crawler competition in the garden with the wife, Jimny vs 4runner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their site says ¥27,500 which is about £200, so I would guess at least that in the UK. I like the Hilux: https://rc.kyosho.com/en/rccar/miniz/4-4.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4inbrain Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I'd get both, but £400 is quite steep for a little fun in the garden. Not complaining - just not feasible for me in this case. They still look cute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyboy_uk Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I was right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshireman Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Yeah, this looks nice too but, I don't think I could justify paying £200 🤔 Come on Tamiya.....your version PLEASE 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyboy_uk Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) I have mini Tamiya Jimny, a Tamiya MF-01X Jimny and a MST Jimny. Soon I'll have a Kyosho Jimny too. Did I mention that like Jimnys? Modelsport have them for £229. Edited January 29, 2020 by monkeyboy_uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnknan Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) That's a lot of money for a 1:18th blimey 😳 Edited January 29, 2020 by fnknan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
