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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe central articulation joint is recreated with a poly cap and provides authentic movement\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eOptional parts are included to build the model with or without a front-mounted winch\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe front windscreen can be modelled in either the upright or folded-down position\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA realistic driver figure is included to place in the cab\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe complex 6-wheel suspension is realistically depicted with an uncomplicated assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThree different marking options are provided for various service vehicles\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe model accurately captures the unique and powerful two-module form of the M561\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenuine Tamiya Product\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale: 1\/35\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eLength: 170mm (6.69\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidth: 62mm (2.44\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeight: N\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ePieces: N\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecal Schemes: 3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkill Level: Intermediate\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncluded Items\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Model Kit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Driver Figure\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Decal Sheet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Instruction Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRequired Items\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eABS Plastic Safe Paint\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eModelling Glue\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Tweezers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Scissors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Modelling Knives\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Modelling Files\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAMIYA","offers":[{"title":"Hobbies Direct","offer_id":40426575855817,"sku":"10033179","price":60.37,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0024\/9803\/5810\/files\/5695d2b89bc24f469b0f5be3fc49ce09.webp?v=1761772907","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.com.au\/products\/tamiya-1-35-u-s-m561-gama-goat-6x6-cargo-truck-scaled-plastic-model-kit","provider":"JB Hi-Fi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
