Tamiya 58695 Wild One Off-Roader Blockhead Motors Edition  [58695]

Classic Off-Road Heritage Reimagined

The Tamiya 58695 Wild One Off-Roader brings back a beloved 1980s silhouette updated with contemporary touches. The Blockhead Motors livery by Jun Watanabe gives this model a distinctive finish that appeals to both vintage collectors and active RC racers.

Styling and Chassis Balance

This 1/10 scale Wild One measures 425mm long, 140mm tall and 225mm wide, with a 255mm wheelbase. The ABS box-type frame is built to resist rough use while staying light, and the battery compartment fits modern packs such as Tamiya Racing Packs and LF batteries. The 2WD layout includes full independent suspension with coil springs and trailing arms for stable handling on uneven surfaces.

Drivetrain and Mechanical Details

The enclosed gearbox houses differential gears for predictable cornering, and dog bone driveshafts with dust covers add durability. The kit includes a 540-type brushed motor, and buyers will need to supply a 2-channel radio, steering servo, ESC, and a 7.2-7.4 volt battery with charger to complete the setup.

Blockhead Motors Styling and Extras

This special release features a pre-cut, pre-painted light blue polycarbonate body with Blockhead Motors graphics and fresh stickers. Metal-plated trim pieces, window nets, number plates and a dummy antenna enhance the period-correct look while keeping the kit faithful to the original spirit.

The Tamiya 58695 Wild One Off-Roader is ideal for hobbyists who appreciate vintage aesthetics with reliable construction. Its detailed styling and solid chassis make it a practical choice for both display and casual off-road running.
