Mammoth Dump Truck - construction themed Wild Mini 4WD

The Tamiya 17013 Mammoth Dump Truck brings a construction vehicle vibe to the Wild Mini 4WD range, combining a bold truck body with straightforward assembly suited to modders and collectors alike.

Scale Truck Styling and Features

The body captures the look of heavy haulers, with a pronounced dump bed and rugged proportions. Its appearance makes it a standout piece for themed displays or workshop shelves.

Durable Chassis and Powertrain Layout

The specialised Wild Mini 4WD chassis emphasises robustness and simple assembly. A centrally placed motor drives both axles through a sidewinder gear setup, offering consistent behaviour on simple track circuits.

Building Tips and Custom Options

With snap-fit components and no glue required, the kit is approachable for newcomers. While not optimised for racing, the Mammoth Dump Truck is ideal for cosmetic mods and themed builds. The large tyres are mainly an aesthetic choice that reinforces the off-road look.

Specifications

  • Body Style: Truck Type
  • Chassis Type: Specialized for Wild Mini 4WD
  • Tire Size: 52mm Diameter, 31mm Width

The Tamiya Mammoth Dump Truck is a great pick for those who enjoy creative paint and detail work on a simple, robust platform.

Yes, the snap-fit nature and clear parts layout make it friendly for a first build, though painting may add complexity for newcomers.
The large tyres give a rugged look but the model is not designed for harsh off-road use. Light grass or compacted dirt is fine, but rough terrain can stress the chassis.
Use hobby acrylics or spray paints for even coverage. Masking the dump bed and adding weathering washes will enhance the construction theme.
Wheel and tyre swaps are possible if replacements match the axle and hub dimensions. Check fitment before committing to aftermarket parts.
