The mighty Toyota Land Cruiser 70 Series has been standing strong for over four decades. It was given some significant updates a while back, and only recently did it just make its way back to its home market of Japan.

Unsurprisingly, shortly after its arrival in the Land of the Rising Sun, aftermarket tuning companies have already had field days with the SUV. But off-road setups aren’t the only types of ‘builds’ you’re going to see, because it’s Japan, after all. Case in point: this life-sized LC70 replica.

This isn’t your ordinary replica, though. Despite it being as big as the actual vehicle, it’s extremely lightweight, so much so that you can pick this thing up from the ground. It’s built using styrofoam that was painstakingly cut, sanded, shaped, and eventually handpainted into this work of art.

Now, it’s not a working replica and it doesn’t have an interior, but it actually does roll on its wheels when you push it. Weight isn’t an issue here, so you should be able to move it around just fine. And in case you need to steer, just lift the front end and turn the vehicle yourself.

If you want to see how this was actually built, you can check out the full clip below.
