Tamiya 70259 - TAMIYA WALKING & SWIMMING PENGUIN
Features
This assembly kit creates the Walking and Swimming Penguin, which waddles on land and swims in the water. The submarine motor powers its legs via gearbox as it moves, and in the water the model raises its head and swims with its flippers. Use its rudder to apply direction. Includes everything needed for easy snap-fit/screw-together assembly.
- Submarine motor mini
- Cement not required
- Stickers for eyes, beak and body included
Flippers power the penguin in the water. Use the limiters at the at their base to apply direction.
Changing the rudder angle also lets you apply direction.
This model takes inspiration from Humboldt penguins, and the water resistant stickers in the kit take care of body markings and facial features.
Why not give your penguin a fresh look with a different color or expression?
*Always wipe down the model and remove batteries after use.
