About product

The Mazda T600 in 1:24 scale from Academy

A kit in injection-molded polystyrene from the tooling Academy introduced in 2021. The subject is a three-wheeled light truck with a single wheel at the front, an enclosed cab and an open cargo bed. In the number of parts and in its breakdown it is a build suited to a beginner; the assembly is a matter of one longer evening, so it also serves well as a relaxing model between two more demanding projects.

The real subject

Mazda's three-wheeled trucks came about as a cheap answer to the postwar need for transport where a full-size truck was too expensive and too big. The T600 type had a small gasoline engine, a payload in the hundreds of kilograms and its strength was agility in narrow streets and in markets. The same design was also assembled in Korea, where it became one of the icons of motorization there in the 1960s.

Building and painting tips

The body has large single-color areas, so it pays to spray the base with an airbrush and to polish the surface once dry. Keep the chrome strips and the lights separate and finish them at the end. A truck will take discreet weathering: light dust on the cargo bed and wear on the edges of the step will turn a toy-like shape into a believable working vehicle.

Who will enjoy the model

  • collectors of unusual working vehicles
  • beginning builders of cars in 1:24
  • builders of street scenes

In the box you will find unglued and unpainted parts. Paints, glue and other accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Yes. The manufacturer places it among the undemanding builds, there are few parts and the fit tends to be trouble-free. Even a builder who has one or two car models behind them can manage it.

It was an economical solution of the postwar period. A single steered wheel at the front simplified the whole design and brought the cost down, while the vehicle carried a load that would otherwise have called for a far more expensive automobile.

It can, only expect more careful work with a brush or with a spray can. The large smooth areas of the body reveal every stroke, so apply the paint in thin coats.
