Scale Haulage Done Right with the Tamiya Mercedes Benz Arocs 56357

The Arocs name is synonymous with heavy haulage and Tamiya's 56357 special edition brings that character to the model bench. This 1/14 scale kit pairs an authentic appearance with a build aimed at long-term use and upgradeability.

Painted Cab and Protective Finish

The cab arrives pre-coated in TS-8 Italian red while the tipper bed features TS-17 Gloss aluminum, both finished with urethane clear for longevity. This approach reduces painting time and keeps the factory finish looking good during normal use.

Solid Chassis Design for Realistic Duty

Constructed around a 3-axle ladder frame with aluminium side channels and resin cross members, the truck bed combines metal subframes and resin panels to retain detail without excessive weight. Twin rear axles powered by a TR mighty-tuned 35T deliver authentic hauling performance.

Compatible Electronics and Movement Options

The Electric Actuator Set (56545) adds functioning bed motion and the model accepts MFC-03 (56523) or MFC-01 (56511) modules for lighting and sound. The built-in 3-speed gearbox is intended for use with a separately purchased 4-channel R/C transmitter.
