Overview of the Tamiya 56376 Scania 770 S 8x4/4 Gun Metal Edition

The Tamiya 56376 Scania 770 S 8x4/4 in Gun Metal captures the feel of a heavy-duty truck in a compact, buildable form. Its metal-look finish and precise panel detail make it a standout display piece after assembly.

Build Quality and Authentic Detail

This special edition emphasises finish and accurate components, reproducing the cab lines and chassis layout faithfully. The kit's parts fit cleanly, and the suspension layout is modelled to give believable movement under load.

Drive Layout and On-Road Behaviour

The 8x4/4 configuration provides realistic axle interaction and stable straight-line behaviour. The chassis accepts common servo and motor setups and reacts well to sensible weight and gearing changes for on-road running.

Scale Background and Design Roots

The Scania 770 S has a strong reputation in long-distance haulage for comfort and reliability. This model reflects those design priorities at scale, letting hobbyists keep a piece of that engineering in their own workshop.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/14
  • Drivetrain: 8x4/4
  • Finish: Gun Metal Special Edition
  • Chassis: Durable and realistic replica
  • Customization: High potential for upgrades

Tamiya 56376's Gun Metal Edition is a satisfying kit for those who enjoy realistic truck modelling and the opportunity to personalise electronics and trim.

Assembly time varies with experience, but allow several evenings for a careful build including painting and trimming; expect longer if fitting custom electronics and lighting.
The kit normally includes printed details and basic trim parts; many builders add aftermarket decal sets or custom paint to personalise the finish.
This 1/14 scale truck excels on smooth tarmac or concrete surfaces; it will also perform on compacted pathways but is not intended as an off-road model.
A careful hand with spray cans or an airbrush will produce excellent results; professional paint helps, but neat DIY painting can also look very convincing.
