Description
Construct and animate the Tamiya Roboticraft Series No. 9 Mecha Tiger Walking 4 Legs. This Tamiya roboticraft mecha kit builds a walking tiger robot with movable front and rear legs. A motor, crank, and link rod work together to create its characteristic backward leg movement. The clear yellow body and feet, paired with a transparent gearbox, provide the completed model with an eye-catching mechanical look.
Designed for practical, hands-on building, the kit uses inset and screw fasteners, while rubber tubing makes the wiring easier to manage. Select from four walking patterns and enjoy around two hours of operation from one alkaline AA battery. Recommended for builders aged 10 and above, this project is an engaging introduction to robotics, mechanical systems, and imaginative model making.
