This item is an injection-plastic racing car model kit. It requires both cement and painting to complete or use.
To commemorate the New Year, Tamiya has released this "Year of the Ox" Mini 4WD model, complete with ox driver (looks more like a standard cow to me)! In the Chinese zodiac (which also works in Japan!), 2009 (Heisei Year 21) is indeed the Year of the Ox, and every year Tamiya releases a themed model like this. Fun! The kit features a white injection plastic body with black chassis and black rubber tires. Wheels are yellow. Stickers are included for detail. Snap-fit assembly; no glue is required. Features a midship layout and three-piece chassis. Double shaft motor is included; two AA batteries are required but not included, and the required tools (screwdriver, side cutters for plastic, and a modelling knife) are also not included. Mini 4WD cars are made for racing specifically on Tamiya racing circuits.
