Lunch Box classic built for rough tracks

Since its 1987 launch the Tamiya Lunch Box 58347 has been a favourite for modders and collectors. Its distinctive boxy van body perched on chunky tyres gives an unusual silhouette that stands out at club runs and casual meet ups.

Bodywork made for personalisation

The styrol shell is resilient and takes paint exceptionally well, so modelers often create unique liveries. The body doubles as a creative platform, letting you build a visual statement as well as a capable machine.

Durable layout for dependable runs

The ABS bathtub chassis is designed to absorb knocks, while the front swing axle independent setup and rear rolling rigid section deliver stable handling. A sealed rear gearbox with differential supports smoother turns on varying terrain.

Tyres that boost capability

Fitted with 115mm by 71mm monster tyres, this Lunch Box gains ride height and traction for grass and gravel. The included wheelie bar also helps control stunts and keeps things entertaining at events.

Fits a range of skill levels

From newcomers starting out to experienced drivers hunting a nostalgic kit, the Lunch Box suits both. It runs on a Type 540 motor with a high performance ESC included for immediate track time and tuning potential.
