    you can't buy the defender on the first video unfortunately. It is based on the Tamiya F350 kit but heavily modified. The F350 kit itself is not a rock crawler RC, the owner probably made his own custom parts. The defender shell is also custom.

    F350 original chassis:



    The Land Cruiser 40 and Jeep Wrangler on the other hand is a full off-the-shelf rock crawler offering from Tamiya. costs $350 for the kit.
