Now you can get a remote-controlled toy version of a vehicle that is basically just a big toy to begin with

- Rezvani just launched a remote-controlled version of its Jeep Wrangler-based Tank SUV.
- It comes with working LED lights and not much else.
- For $450 plus tax and shipping the buyer will still need to bring their own batteries.
Rezvani, the brand known for making normal cars and SUVs look wildly different, now has its very own remote-controlled car. A pint-sized version of its Jeep-based Tank SUV, the new toy will set buyers back at least $450. After taxes and shipping the price could exceed $500 and that doesn’t include the seven batteries one will need to play with it.
The Tank is a truly unique vehicle and one of Rezvani’s first creations. Under the skin, it’s a Jeep Wrangler but it’s tough to see that through the bulbous styling. The body features just about every angle and compound curve imaginable. Originally, it was available with a 6.4-liter V8. Today, Rezvani says buyers can spec a 1,000 horsepower 6.2-liter V8, while an everyday V6 is also available. Pricing for the Tank starts at $175,000.

Those who love the Tank but don’t have that sort of cash to flaunt can now get it in fun size. The new remote-controlled version is directly available from Rezvani and for the most part, looks like a faithful recreation of the full-sized SUV. It comes complete with functional headlights, tail lights, and even an auxiliary light bar. The company doesn’t specify which RC manufacturer it worked with to create the toy but it appears to come with a conventional controller.
What might be the wildest thing about the RC Tank is just how expensive it is. At $450, it’s several times more expensive than well-respected rival toys. For instance, a Tamiya Porsche 911 GT3 will set someone back a little over $130 after taxes and shipping. You could have a three-car race for the price of the Rezvani.
According to Rezvani’s own site, shipping for the RC tank is $45 which puts it at $495 before tax. Oh, and there’s one more thing. The buyer will also need to pick up seven double-A batteries. That’s right, for almost $500 before taxes, Rezvani won’t even supply the batteries.
Perhaps for the people interested in the real Tank, spending money on such things makes no real impact. What would you do with $450? We can think of some better options.
