Gift Guide: The Best Toys for Billionaire Boys
Lexus RC F Ready-To-Run Remote Control Car
Created exclusively for Barneys, the limited-edition Lexus RC F remote control sports car is this year’s ultimate holiday toy for kids big and small. This 1/10 scale, high-performance vehicle is built on an all-wheel drive Apex chassis and driven by the powerful Reedy 3300k V 540 brushless motor. High-grip racing tires wrapped around 20-spoke rims put that power to the ground, and detailed brake components complete the aggressive look. The Barneys-only edition of this performance coupe replica features fully operational LED headlights and taillights in silver and black finish, colors that aren’t available anywhere else. The vehicle is fully assembled and ready-to-run with batteries included.
Available on Barneys.com and in-store for $350, while supplies last.

Set it to patrol and watch your Droid explore autonomously, make up your own adventure and guide BB-8 yourself, or create and view holographic recordings.
