Tamiya 56351 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 6x4 - Detailed multi-axle scale truck

For model builders who value real-world truck detail, the Tamiya 56351 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 6x4 Full Operation Kit offers an absorbing build. The kit reflects the look and mechanics of the full-size Arocs, delivering parts and assembly that reward careful work and attention to detail.

Authentic mechanics and driving feel

The Tamiya 56351 recreates the Arocs cab and chassis with close-fit components and practical mechanical features. The 6x4 drivetrain and 3-speed gearbox give a realistic operation profile, and the suspension layout mirrors heavy-duty truck behaviour for varied surfaces.

Who will enjoy this kit

This kit suits hobbyists who like constructive challenges and scale finishing. It makes a satisfying display model after paint and detailing, and when fitted with appropriate electronics it handles realistically for running at local club meets or static shows.

Position in the Tamiya range

Against other Tamiya trucks, the Arocs 6x4 emphasises mechanical complexity and scale features rather than being a quick build. That hands-on focus makes it attractive to modellers who like to tweak drivetrains and suspension setups.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/14
  • Drivetrain: 6x4
  • Transmission: 3-Speed
  • Suspension: Metal leaf springs & friction dampers
  • Body: Detailed polycarbonate cab

The Tamiya 56351 Mercedes-Benz Arocs 6x4 provides a meaningful project for builders wanting realistic truck detail and mechanical interest. Its scale fidelity and assembly depth make it a rewarding addition to a modeller's stable.

Build time varies with experience and detail level, but expect several weekends to complete a careful assembly including painting and fitting electronics.
Yes, the chassis allows custom electronics. Plan servo placement and wiring paths early in the build to keep the cab and body tidy when finished.
The kit uses sturdy parts and metal suspension components, but like all scale builds it benefits from sensible use and occasional maintenance to keep moving parts in good order.
Polycarbonate-specific paints and careful masking give the best finish. Use hobby-grade paints designed for model bodies and allow proper curing before handling.
