If owning a Defender seems out of reach due to financial constraints, don’t give up on the dream just yet. While it won’t take you from point A to point B, the Traxxas RC Defender will entertain you just like a full-size Land Rover. Let’s get something straight, this is not some cheap toy; the Traxxas TRX-4 Scale and Trail Crawler is built for small-scale adventures. With impressive ground clearance, remote locking differentials, a two-speed transmission, GTS aluminum shocks, and a heavy duty steel frame, this beast is anything but a toy. The details are impressive, as it sports realistic lighting, side mirrors, bumpers, a spare tire, and even a jack. Yes, you can change the little tire with a little jack and that would be adorable if it wasn’t so bad ass. Defender in your driveway or not, this should be on your holiday wish list.
