Explore the Tamiya 70088 Walking Triceratops Build

The Tamiya 70088 Walking Triceratops is a hands-on wooden model that brings simple mechanical principles to life. With laser-cut wood pieces and a pre-assembled crank-arm gearbox, the kit focuses on teaching motion and basic engineering while delivering an attractive display model for hobbyists and students.

Mechanics and Motion

A link rod mechanism in this kit produces a convincing walking action for the legs, plus coordinated head and tail movement. Observing the crank-arm gearbox in action helps builders understand how rotating motion converts to reciprocal motion, making it a practical project for STEM projects and mechanical curiosity.

Specifications

  • Material: Pre-cut wood
  • Motor: RE-140
  • Gearbox: Crank-arm, pre-built
Assembly time varies with experience but many users complete the build in a few hours thanks to the pre-cut parts and pre-built gearbox.
A hobby knife, fine sandpaper and wood glue are recommended to tidy joints and ensure smooth movement; no special tools are required for the gearbox.
The kit includes an RE-140 motor and a working crank-arm gearbox; experienced builders can adapt linkages or add cosmetic changes, but structural modifications require careful fitting.
