The Tamiya 47419-60A Monster Beetle Black Edition brings a retro favorite back with a bold black finish and period styling cues. This 1/10 scale assembly kit is aimed at modelers who enjoy building and tuning a vintage-inspired crawler with contemporary improvements.
It uses a dark gray ABS space frame for strength alongside a black polystyrene resin body that mimics a customized Beetle, complete with pronounced fenders and three auxiliary lights. Metal-plated accents and updated stickers enhance the authentic look.
Fitted with 130mm diameter lug-pattern pin-spike tires on gold-plated wheels, the model delivers reliable grip and cushioning. The front double wishbone and rear trailing arm suspension systems, working with CVA oil dampers, smooth out rough surfaces. Universal shafts are guarded by rubber boots to reduce wear.
The kit arrives with a 540-type brushed motor but does not include a radio, ESC, servo, or battery. You will need a 2-channel transmitter, compatible ESC, a standard servo, and a 7.2-7.4 volt battery pack plus a suitable charger to complete the build.
The Tamiya Monster Beetle Black Edition suits hobbyists who value hands-on assembly and nostalgic looks while still wanting capable handling for light off-road use.
