Meet the Tamiya Bullhead Junior

The Tamiya Bullhead Junior delivers a playful truck personality within the Wild Mini 4WD lineup. Enthusiasts will appreciate its monster truck cues and a build that looks great on display or for relaxed track sessions.

Playful Truck Styling

The Bullhead Junior shows off an exaggerated truck body that brings character to any Mini 4WD shelf. It includes separate molded details such as an air cleaner and muffler to boost realism. The oversized tyres, 52mm diameter by 31mm width, give the model a chunky, toy-like stance.

Drive Layout and Chassis

A simple, user-friendly chassis underpins the Bullhead Junior. The centrally mounted motor powers both axles via a sidewinder gear setup, offering balanced traction suited to casual racing and fun runs on standard Mini 4WD circuits.

Build Tips and Suitability

Designed for quick assembly without cement, the Bullhead Junior is approachable for builders of varying skill. It is not aimed at high performance tuning, but it performs reliably on basic tracks and makes a charming entry in any collection.

Ordered quite a lot of stuff from these guys & the packaging & condition of the items delivered was excellent. The service is second to none & I will definitely buy from these again.
The model fares best on standard Mini 4WD circuits and smooth club tracks where its chassis and tyres can run without heavy jumps or high speed sections.
Yes, using acrylic paints designed for Mini 4WD bodies is recommended. Apply thin coats and test fit components while drying to avoid paint build-up at mounting points.
Common Mini 4WD spares such as tyres, gears and axles can be used if compatible. Check measurements before ordering replacement parts to ensure correct fit.
The assembled Bullhead Junior runs on two R6/AA/UM3 alkaline batteries. Use fresh cells for best performance during club runs or demos.
