47329 Tamiya – 1/24 Metal Plated Heavy Dump Truck (GF-01)

This special LIMITED EDITION kit takes the standard Heavy Dump Truck and gives
it a new meaner look! The livery design concept is based upon the heavy metal
style seen in American rock band culture. The body parts are molded in black,
with metal-plated chassis parts and new sticker designs.

This special version depicts a dump truck modeled upon those which do the heavy
work in locations like quarries and large-scale construction sites. The body
is mounted on the popular gear-driven GF-01 chassis.

The GF-01 chassis plays off the successful and fun line-up of RC kits such
as the Wild Willy 2, Volkswagen Type 2, and the Farm King Wheelie. Whereas those
kits featured a 2WD and easy to wheelie platform, the GF-01 is a 4WD incarnation
with the motor directly placed in the center in order to drive the gears in
the front and rear gearboxes.
