The Tamiya 23629 King Hauler is a faithful 1/14 scale recreation of iconic American tractor units, built to deliver an immersive scale trucking experience. Part of Tamiya's respected tractor truck range, this RTR model balances detailed bodywork and sturdy engineering for hobbyists who value authenticity and dependable performance.
The model features an aluminium ladder frame chassis that follows real truck architecture, while the 3-speed gearbox provides a realistic range of drive ratios for varied speeds and torque. Solid axles paired with leaf spring suspension help the King Hauler handle different surfaces with the look and movement expected from a scale rig.
This limited edition arrives fitted with the Multi-Function Unit MFC-01, which supplies multiple lighting points, recorded engine and brake sounds, and a vibration unit to simulate rumble and shifting. Nine bright LEDs cover headlights and indicators, and 24 digital sound files recreate typical truck audio for authentic operation.
The King Hauler measures 600mm long with a 447mm wheelbase, giving it a commanding presence on display or at the field. The hand-painted bodywork and chrome-plated metal fittings enhance visual realism, while a Futaba 4-channel transmitter is included for precise control. Note that a 7.2V battery pack and charger are required but not supplied.
For scale truck builders and collectors who want a ready-to-run model with authentic looks and realistic systems, the Tamiya King Hauler delivers a satisfying blend of display quality and functional detail.
