TRA-
Same! Plenty of 80 about, mostly used by travellers though, same for mitsubishi pajero etc.
I saw a not totally rotten 79 land cruiser the other day, was being used as a farm vehicle so prob fairly bad underneath. Really like the square ones defo > defender for me. Think you can still buy them new in Australia and Israel etc as a "troopy"
Other alternative (that's now gong up in value nicely) is a patrol ii, the really square 80s ones.

Landcruisers are the mutts. They're more expensive than RR's here (secondhand at least.) Probably something to do with the relative service costs. My buddy had 400k miles on his LC. Still ran great until someone nicked it!
Wouldn't mind one of those odd FJ Cruisers for off road camping myself.
