The Tamiya Konghead 6x6 on the G6-01 platform blends retro monster truck looks with practical modern engineering. Based on the Bullhead aesthetic, the kit delivers an approachable six-wheel driving package for backyard runs and local track sessions.
The G6-01 chassis features a narrow monocoque frame and a gear-driven layout that pushes torque to all six wheels. Its sealed gearbox helps keep grit out so differentials and gears remain reliable even after muddy outings.
Each wheel uses an independent double-wishbone setup with friction dampers to keep all six tyres in contact with uneven ground. The arrangement improves straight-line stability and helps when climbing gradients up to 40 degrees.
The polycarbonate body echoes Bullhead lines and arrives with a sticker sheet and plated chrome parts such as air cleaners and exhaust tips. Combined with deep rim chrome wheels, it presents a striking profile on the trail.
For sharper cornering, owners can fit a 4-wheel steering system with additional R/C gear. This upgrade is helpful when navigating tight layouts or confined running areas.
The Tamiya Konghead 6x6 G6-01 provides a rewarding build and a distinctive driving feel for hobbyists wanting a six-wheel platform that is both practical and characterful.
