Tamiya 56335 - 1/14 Scale Mercedes-Benz Actros 1851 GigaSpace Model Truck Kit  [56335]

Tamiya 56335 Actros 1851 GigaSpace brief for hands-on builders

The Tamiya 56335 Mercedes-Benz Actros 1851 GigaSpace is a finely rendered scale kit representing Daimler AG's iconic truck series. It is aimed at hobbyists who value authentic proportions and functional modelling elements in a 1/14 build.

Exterior fidelity and interior trim

This kit reproduces the truck's strong profile and service components with attention to authentic placement and scale. Interior detailing includes metal transfers for badges and plated parts that lift the appearance beyond standard plastic finishes.

Robust ladder frame and trailer coupling

The ladder frame chassis uses aluminium side channels with resin cross members to provide a solid platform, and the included coupler allows linking to separately sold semi-trailers. A front-mounted motor connects to the rear drive through propeller shafts for reliable propulsion.

Suspension engineered for realism

The suspension layout features metal leaf springs and friction dampers, complete with O-ring seals to extend service life. This setup reproduces the feel of a full-size truck, helping the model handle uneven surfaces and turns with confidence.

The Actros 1851 GigaSpace by Tamiya is a quality scale project that rewards careful assembly and paintwork, offering both display appeal and functional driving characteristics once completed.
