The Tamiya 70264 Walking Tyrannosaurus combines simple assembly with visual learning, making it useful for demonstrations of motion and gearing. Its blend of transparent plastic and wood highlights how internal parts interact when the model moves.
The clear plastic sections let you follow gears and linkages as they operate, while the wooden panels give a tactile build experience. A compact plastic gearbox with a built-in motor arrives pre-assembled, so builders can focus on fitting parts and finishing the model.
This model illustrates basic mechanical ratios and motion; the gear ratio is 280:1 which produces a walking speed near 4 cm/s. The wooden body is easy to decorate, so it doubles as a personalised display piece after construction.
