Looks the business Glenn
That PS48 turned out brilliant, Glenn!
Fine job there, Glenn. That's turned out lookin awesome! 👌
That’s it! I am building mine. Can’t let you have all the fun. Watched the chassis build like 5 times.
Great job Glenn. I didn't know that it has that amount of details.
D for done and E for EPIC Glenn!!!!! What a thing for sure!
I love it Glenn!
And he not painted it white!!!! :) :) Sorry Glenn, just having a catchup as I’ve not been on for ages and my old account got messed with. It looks stunning mate and WHAT a fantastic kit! Hope you’re well anyway mucker.
May be you should get the Hg copy version as well. I all ways wanted to see the F-350 on this chassis and wheel combo.😍😍😍👍👍👍
I really hope that Tamiya brings this out again, that looks so good 👍
Hi I have always liked this model right from to original Hilux from the 81' Now watching this I have decided to get the Bruiser and convert the body to this. I have done my research on them and I can get all the parts off the Toyota Hi lift. I am 99% sure they will fit.. I hope that when Tamiya have the 50years celebration they make another Mountain rider as I will be ready and waiting....
Great channel I like the way your go into detail with items. Also liked the Kyosho turbo optima build another one to buy.
Thank you
Glenn, this thing is the best looking truck I’ve ever seen!! Way to go!!
That looks awesome. Would like to see it next to the Blackfoot cos you said it was way bigger. I've been watching your channel from pretty much the beginning, I think you had 37 subscribers. An it's great you've not lost your west yorkshire accent. I was brought up in Morley, moved 20some miles north and mine changed.
Great video mate 😁 look's amazing great job my friend 👌
This and the Bruiser are probably the most awesome RC cars ever. As a child I'd stare at these boxes at the hobby shop and dream of owning one. They're quite special.
Turned out real nice Glenn. :D One little suggestion, would be to hit the driver figure with a matt varnish, the gloss make it look like he's wearing some latex clothes, and oil in his hair :D Truck looks stunning, nicely done. A fine addition to your collection.
What a rig! Beautiful work!
This looks amazing Glenn Wowee love it dude 😊😊 what a truck mega 👍😃❤️😍🥇Pete
Wow, just wow!!! That truck looks bloody fantastic, you've done a superb job!!!
Looks good. With the driver, I use clear matt spray to dull the clothing and hair. 👍
great truck . i am such a tamiya fan. back then and still today i love the artwork on the boxes. my monster beetle was my pride and joy as a kid. ball bearings, bigger motor, electronic speed controller etc. dont get some of the other channels ,who throw their ready to race cars around and they seam to find joy in it, just to destroy them. when you build them for days or weeks their are your little babies.
Thankyou!!! Yes!! These channels just destroying there cars.... I hate it. My first Rx was a grasshopper. Then the bruiser. Loved them. Still do. Bought a new one of each for shelf Queens. Takes me back so fast to jr.high
😁👍I will tell ya what I think................. BEAUTY!
Every thing you build looks good but that looks of the chart truly awesome
Just awesome Glenn buddy! Tyre decals and stickers have really bought it to life. Great work. 😊
What a BEAST, that looks smashing Glenn! 😎
Owned a 1980 Toy Hilux back in the 80s, great and fun truck and easy to work on.
Second comment. You nailed this truck Glenn. The Mountaineer has always been my favourite truck from Tamiya. I really like the paint and all the details you added. Nice to see mate. Be well, your friend- Jason.
Congratulations from Brazil
Looks epic. Need to do a gentle run in tarmac for some footage :)
Wow what an epic build. Looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing Glen.
It came out great, awesome truck!
You have done a great job on that Glen.. It is a hard core bit of kit.. really like it👍👍
That’s a thing of beauty! Now I need one.
That turned out excellent Glenn you should be well chuffed!
Painting the chrome pieces with the same flat aluminium paint would really finish this off a treat 👌
I built both my and my brother's Bruisers when they were new in the 80s. It was a beast compared to the all plastic Tamiya cars we'd had before. It was SO heavy especially with that huge 6V double wide battery. The controller that you had to use at the time was a 4 channel stick (2 directions on each stick) and they gave you a gate to tape over the throttle stick to help make sure you were catching the right gears in the left-right direction. it was a little clunky and easy to not get it into gear. Now that we have multi-channel trigger/wheel radios with fixed positions like my Noble NB4, selecting a gear is much easier. Great truck!
That’s a thing of beauty!❤
Wow!!! That looks absolutely stunning!
Well done Glenn. Fantastic video and what an end result! You need to show it in your display
That looks stunning Glenn, i cant believe the amount of work thats needed to go into the body. But you sir have yet again pulled it out of the bag 👍
GREAT JOB GLENN, THAT IS ONE AWESOME CAR ( TRUCK)👌👌👌👌
Absolutely cracking that….definitely DforDone. Loved the chassis build vid. Would love to see this run 😎
I turned out looking fantastic! I think this one is the best looking of the these trucks. The Hilux highlift is pretty close behind it but this one looks perfect! Great job on all the painting and details!
Epic looking truck Glenn!! Well done.
Funnily enough I have that bodyshell on my Axial SCX-10 crawler. I added lights, indicators and everything. Birds nest of wiring and the light controller sits underneath a wooden box in the tray. all controlled by a switch on my TX. There's also a winch that works again controlled from the TX. Yes that body sure is heavy and there's lots of screws holding it together but it looks amazing...especially if the LEDs you install are warm white..That yellowish colour old school halogen bulbs put out. After wiping off the standard mirrors I installed some rubber items from Yeah Racing.
I bought a simple action figure in 1/10th scale (Wrestling figurine) and threw on a hoodie that you can get from Ali-express and it looks spot on.
RC poetry!! Beautiful job Glenn what a lovely model. I agree definitely best RC car. Would love to get that one day. Thanks for the great video best wishes
It looks sensational Glenn! Nice work.
Hi Glenn from Yorkshire England cool build and body 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Looks great! Would love to see it on a gentle run!
Done a great job, looks awesome 😎
Such a beauty, nice work Glenn.
Very Cool Glenn 👍🏻👍🏻
Great looking truck Glenn!
Looks awesome !
Looks great Glen great build.
I used a kit to adapt the hubs to accept 12mm hex fitting wheels. I used them on my Tamiya Bruiser clone and fitted some 5 piece weighted wheels with some 100mm wall tyres that look super scale. I also dyed the white parts black with Ryt dye and looked great! I also did all the detail in black. Excellent detail Glenn! You can see it here my friend!
Super Glue, you need Glue for Plastic Models Glenn like those from Tamiya itself or from Revell , special made for glueing plastic cars, ariplanes etc etc.... when you use spray paint TS series then the Tamiya Plastic model glue does not damages the TS paint
I use microscale industry's micro krystal klear for lenses windows etc.
Fabulous looking truck 🤩
It looks incredible. I'd love to see one in the flesh and feel the weight of it. I totally would not have the patience or skill to do that body so fair play to you!
Nice build Glenn I wish to have one also
One of my dream Tamiya trucks.. someday!!!
Beautiful work Glenn, I painted mine silver like the one in Radio Race Car back in the day, now I wish I did it red you bugger haha. Great video mate. Will look awesome in the cabinets 👌
Looks Amazing! I have the Ford high lift 350. One day i hope to build it.
This is inspiration for my Tamiya Bruiser Clone from China!
It beautiful brother 😎👍❤️
Still think other than the Blackfoot this is the best looking RC Tamiya ever made!
Loving it glen🎉😊
Looks absolutely amazing! I’d love to build one. 🙂
Very nice 👍
Looks fantastic Glenn. The decals definitely work.
Will we see this one running at some point?
I had always wanted to get one of those Tamiya trucks but they were a bit too expensive for me.
I'm mostly into RC4WD and have discovered that leaf springs really need the weight to work properly.
I would love to get one of these(even if it's the knock-off). Looks awesome Glen!
Wow 🤩Glenn, that truck looks so good, and that red paint definitely makes it pop. Excellent work on the body and driver. Oh and yeah the driver does look like Michael myers, just in time for Halloween 🎃 😂I’m Joking of course. lol
Awesome build👏👏…Did you manage to get the glue off the window 👍
Looks amazing
Mate it looks amazing if you can fix the rattle on the rest of the shell would be great. As it would annoy you if you ran it out on a trail . I think as the transmission is quite good and not noisy that would get on your nerves. Great job looking forward to your next build
Great build Glenn, would love one of these to build myself but they are so hard to find and expensive. I do own an 81 original hilux to complete tho.
Well done glenn would love to see this run... just slow on grass?🤟
Love it 😍👍
Wow! Your truck looks great. I have a re-release Tamiya Bruiser. It took for ever to finish it. I would like to get Tamiya Mountaineer. It is hard to justify buying one because I already have the Bruiser. However, I bought the fake Bruiser and I planing to make it look the Mountaineer. You can buy either fake or real Tamiya parts to do it. Thoughts?
That looks phenomenal. You said that comes in at about 7 or 8 Kgs. Did I hear you right ?
I've never been a fan of the huge white bumpers and so I always leave them off. However, seeing yours painted silver, I really like them. My front bumper (under the grill) was supplied in chrome, has Tamiya changed that? Anyway, well done sir!! 🙂
Is the basic body the same as the bruiser just with different add ons
That PS paint is going to last a lot longer on the bumper than TS. It'll flex more.
So nice
"looks like michael myers" ha! exactly what i was thinking..
This and clod buster were my dream trucks I got the clod buster on sale that was the only way I could afford it I got the clod for 200.00 I did manage to get one of my current dream trucks the trx 4 defender and the trx 6 is next on my list I would love to own this Toyota as ready to run I don’t have the time to assemble it I would make a ton of upgrades
I wish these trucks weren't so expensive it keeps a lot of people from being able to buy one.
I hope you're going to run it.
Size comment at 19:00.. Yeah, bugs me how Tamiya, a plastic model company call both the Blackfoot and this 1/10 when their Hilux body is just a touch smaller than 1/8th and the Blackfoot body is closer to 1/12th scale. Even then, going back to the SRB, the Sand Scorcher is quite 1/10th, measure from the wheelbase of a VW Beetle, but a F150 sold on the same chassis is also 1/10th.
That looks Bitchin Glenn
It's so heavy, didn't have the servos, radio gear or battery fitted 😂 classic
Tamiya porn right there. Looks awesome. I wouldn't want to drive it and get it dirty.
I would put a 550 or bigger motor in that.
Definitely wouldn’t have used gloss paint on the driver’s hair , definitely not on the clothes of him , doesn’t look right it’s not realistic .
I remember back in the day with the model shops always used at Matt finish on the figures .
Those are Blackfoot tires.
Too bad the driver doesn't look like you.😂
Show them running for fk sake
