At the '99 Nuremberg Toy Fair (Feb 4-10, 1999), Tamiya announced a completely new 4x4x4 truck called the Juggernaut. I've taken the description from Tamiya's announcement:

58232 R/C 4x4x4 CUSTOMIZED MONSTER PICK-UP TRUCK JUGGERNAUT (FORD F-350)

Smashing through boundaries and breaking down obstacles, the Juggernaut doesn't stop for anything or anyone. A new arrival to the monster truck mayhem, the massive Juggernaut Ford F-350 is sure to cause a commotion. The Juggernaut is the evolution of the classic Clodbuster, with a host of new features learned from Tamiya's 4x4 experience. The sturdy aluminum chassis uses a parallel twin 540 type motor configuration and a newly designed gearbox for maximum power. The twin motors share a common spur gear. The separately available servo is centrally located in a 4-wheel steering setup. The chassis uses a coil-spring suspension system with a double shock system, 8 coil-spring dampers and 4 metal leaf-springs are used in total. The massive wheels and tires are 175mm in diameter, the Juggernaut itself is 353mm tall, 480 mm long and 372mm wide. The awesome dimensions of this vehicle are complemented by colorful stickers. Two 540 motors are included.

Along with this truck, Tamiya also announced two accessories:

53369 Monster Truck Aluminum Damper Set
53370 Monster Truck Light Set

... and 17014 Wild Mini Juggernaut Jr.
