Mammoth Dump Truck - construction vehicle styling in the Wild Mini 4WD range

The Tamiya 17013 Mammoth Dump Truck offers a distinct construction truck aesthetic inside the Wild Mini 4WD family, delivering an easy assembly experience and an eye-catching model for collectors and casual drivers.

Design Notes on the Body

The model mirrors heavy hauler proportions with a prominent dump bed and robust cab lines. The styling concentrates on a convincing miniature representation rather than race-oriented aerodynamics.

Mechanical Layout and Drive System

Fitted to a specialised Wild Mini 4WD chassis, the Mammoth Dump Truck features a central motor and sidewinder gearing to transmit power to both axles, providing balanced and predictable drive for simple circuits.

Assembly Advice and Modification Scope

With snap-fit parts that avoid the need for cement, the kit is approachable and tidy to build. It is primarily for display and themed enjoyment, though enthusiasts can apply cosmetic modifications. The large tyres are mainly for visual presence and may not improve competitive traction.
