Brand:Tamiya Part:#TAMIYA/70259
updated: 28-Jun-24

Take a relaxing swim and enjoy a healthy stroll! This is a craft set featuring a penguin, a popular aquarium animal that walks on the ground and swims leisurely on the water. The power of the mini underwater motor set on the body is transmitted to the crank wheel by the gearbox. Using a link mechanism, the rotary motion is changed to a reciprocating motion, and the flippers (wings) are flapping while the legs are alternately moved for a lively walk. When on the water, it lifts its head and swims using only the power of its flippers. Moreover, by adjusting the limiter on the belly rudder and the base of the flipper, it can turn counterclockwise or clockwise on both land and water. The key point is that most of the parts are easy to assemble, with just screws and fitting.

Specifications:

  • Height approx. 143mm (when standing)
  • length approx. 123mm
  • width approx. 172mm (when flippers are extended) when completed.

After playing, wipe off any water thoroughly, and be sure to remove the batteries.
