58618 TAMIYA MONSTER BEETLE 2015

Tamiya is delighted to announce the release of this updated version of the most requested back-catalogue classic, the Monster Beetle!

The original Monster Beetle #58060 was released back in 1986. After a long absence it is back as an updated assembly kit ready to traverse back yards across the country.

The model features a stylized version of the timeless Volkswagen Beetle body, mounted on an all-action 2WD chassis fitted with big tires for rough-and-tumble off-road fun.

This updated version promises to be great fun for both beginners and Tamiya R/C kit veterans alike!

Features:

• 1/10 scale R/C model assembly kit.
• The injection-moulded plastic body accurately captures the classic Tamiya Monster Beetle shape and style.
• A driver figure is also included.
• Where possible, the markings from the original model design have been recreated and combined with some newly designed markings.
• The rugged ABS space-frame chassis from the original model (58060) has remained.

• The rear universal drive shafts transfer power smoothly and come with rubber boots to protect them from dust.
• A large dust cover is included to protect the R/C equipment.
• The incredible 130mm diameter tyres with lug/pin spike tread provides fantastic off-road performance.
• The tyres are also paired with gold-effect, one-piece wheels.
