The Tamiya Blackfoot has a long history among model truck fans, first appearing in the mid 1980s and spawning several follow ups. The 2016 release, Tamiya 58633, preserves the model's classic presence while incorporating stronger structural elements for regular use.
From the original 58058 to later Super and King Blackfoot variants, the series kept its oversized truck personality. Each new model refined parts and detailing without losing the original appeal.
This edition keeps the ABS body and driver figure but mounts them to a space frame chassis for better rigidity. The independent suspension on all four corners and chunky lug tyres help the truck remain stable over uneven ground.
Supplied with a 540 motor and CVA dampers, the truck offers reliable power delivery and controlled damping. The TBLS-02S ESC gives smooth throttle modulation, and the rubber-booted universal joints and large bumper improve the model's resilience during routine running.
The Tamiya 58633 Blackfoot 2016 is attractive to those who collect iconic models or who want a dependable platform to restore and personalise. It sits well as a display piece or a regularly driven retro truck.
