Tamiya 17002 Blackfoot Junior Wild Mini 4WD Mini Monster Truck Kit  [17002]

Tamiya 17002 Blackfoot Junior - Compact Monster Truck Thrills

The Tamiya 17002 Blackfoot Junior is a member of the 1/32 Wild Mini 4WD series that mixes playful monster truck styling with practical engineering. This compact kit captures the chunky look of a monster truck in a small footprint, making it great for shelf display or light bashing sessions. Its exaggerated tyre stance encourages dramatic wheelies and two-wheel antics.

Drive Layout and Body Details

The Blackfoot Junior uses a centrally mounted motor paired with a sidewinder gear arrangement to deliver power evenly between front and rear. The large-diameter tires, 52mm by 31mm, give the model its lifted profile and help it handle uneven surfaces with flair.

Build Notes and Power

Assembly is user-friendly and requires no cement, so it is approachable for newcomers while still satisfying to experienced builders. A motor is included in the kit, but you will need to provide two R6/AA/UM3 alkaline batteries to run the model. Once completed, it serves as both a display piece and a fun stunter for casual track use.
