Classic Wheelie Fun Reimagined

The Tamiya 58242-60A Wild Willy 2 brings back the 1980s icon with modern WR-02 engineering, marrying nostalgic looks with updated performance for hands-on hobbyists.

How the Wheelie Bar Improves Stunt Control

Wheelie antics are the Wild Willy hallmark. The included wheelie bar helps you control lift and keeps the truck stable during long wheelies, making stunts more consistent on hard-packed surfaces.

Built for Rough Terrain

Oversized tyres and the robust WR-02 chassis allow the model to handle ruts, grass and gravel with confidence. The 2WD gearbox and 4-wheel independent suspension help maintain traction during aggressive runs.

Simple Build with Custom Potential

The styrene body in military green arrives ready for painting and decals, while the kit includes a 540 electric motor and a 2WD gearbox. Add a 2-channel radio, steering servo, an ESC, and a 7.2V battery to complete the rig.

Yes, the assembly follows a traditional kit format with clear steps. Basic modelling experience helps, but newcomers can complete it with patience and standard tools.
You will need a 2-channel radio, steering servo, electronic speed control (ESC), and a 7.2V battery plus a compatible charger to get the truck on track.
Yes, aftermarket tyres and rims that fit the WR-02 hubs are commonly used to tune traction and ride height for different surfaces.
Use Tamiya PS spray paints or other paints formulated for styrene, and follow masking for detailed liveries. Light coats work best to avoid runs.
