Konghead 6x6 - six-wheel monster with classic cues

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.

G6-01 drivetrain - balanced power delivery

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.

Adaptive six-wheel suspension

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.

Bullhead-style shell with chrome accents

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.

Add 4WS for more nimble handling

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.

Choose tyres with open tread and softer compound for loose dirt and grass. The six-wheel layout benefits from extra contact patches, so wider tyres improve traction on soft ground.
After wet or muddy sessions, wipe down the chassis, let the gearbox dry, and check for water entry. Replace lubricant if water contamination is suspected to protect gears and bearings.
Select a motor and ESC rated for 1/18 scale use and the additional load of six-wheel drive. A mid-power brushless combo gives good torque and efficiency without overstressing gears.
Yes, the polycarbonate body is ideal for hobby paints and the included sticker sheet lets you personalise the Bullhead-inspired styling while keeping shell weight low.
