Tamiya 1/35 U.S. M561 Gama Goat 6x6 Cargo Truck Scaled Plastic Model Kit
Capture a Cold War Workhorse with the M561 Gama Goat, a Detailed 1/35 Tamiya Replica with a Driver Figure and Three Markings
Key Features
- 1/35 Scale U.S. M561 Gama Goat
- A unique articulated U.S. military truck of the Vietnam era
- The central articulation joint is movable after assembly
- Includes a driver figure and three marking options
- An excellent project for intermediate modellers
Overview
The M561 "Gama Goat" was a unique six-wheel-drive, semi-amphibious off-road vehicle used by the U.S. military during the Vietnam War era. Its nickname came from its designer, Roger Gamaunt, and its tenacious, "goat-like" climbing ability. This was made possible by its most distinctive feature: an articulated joint between the tractor and carrier modules that allowed them to move independently, conquering incredibly rough terrain.
This 1/35 scale kit from Tamiya is a detailed replica of the one-of-a-kind Gama Goat. The model accurately captures the powerful two-module form, and its key articulation joint is recreated using a poly cap to provide authentic movement even after assembly. The kit includes optional parts for a front-mounted winch, a posable windscreen, a driver figure, and a choice of three different marking options.
Features
The central articulation joint is recreated with a poly cap and provides authentic movement
Optional parts are included to build the model with or without a front-mounted winch
The front windscreen can be modelled in either the upright or folded-down position
A realistic driver figure is included to place in the cab
The complex 6-wheel suspension is realistically depicted with an uncomplicated assembly
Three different marking options are provided for various service vehicles
The model accurately captures the unique and powerful two-module form of the M561
