I don't think it can be limited to just 5 as there are some very uncommon trucks out there.

The Losi JrT is rare?

I think the Blazing Blazer is a bit more rare than some of those kits, as well as the Kyosho Hilux and the later Kyosho Patherfinder/4Runners from the 90s.

Juggernaut 1s aren't super rare, they pop up on ebay regularly.

Not sure about ten but I can tell you now that I think this is the rarest truck at the moment, I've searched and never found or seen another one on here or Tamiya Club or anywhere:-

No, he said Kyosho Hilux and you thought he said Tamiya Hilux. There were a lot of vintage models that used Hilux bodies back in the day.

How can I forget the BoLink Invader - That one definitely needs to be on the list.

Nice, I currently have three FXT's in pieces and one NIB I'll be building eventually. :)
