Right well as some of you know I always buy myself something to keep me occupied over xmas.

Last year it was the Technics lego digger, year before that it was the Technics lego Unimog.

This year I was considering this



It has the power functions with IR controllers etc, same as my digger.

But this has also caught my eye - Gelande II RC defender



The build quality of this is pretty sweet, full alu accurate chassis



Proper metal axles









What you think...

That RC looks naff; get the Lego


Btw, do you keep the Lego or do you sell it on? And if you sell it on, do you lose much on the sets?

Defender, you can properly geek out making it identical then go to land rover shows and park with it on your bonnet.

Surprised you want an electric one Steve.

Electric takes just about all the fun out of it.
