Fun to build, good quality 👍 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bugsy Tastic *by R***B on 10 October 2022* Excellent product, well packaged and promptly delivered. Would highly recommend. Had hours of fun constructing and decorating with my son. Great fun driving it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We love our Monster Beetle! *by M***T on 28 July 2017* This is tough as anything and handles pretty well. My 5 year old has taken over this now - and it's seen a massive amount of abuse, but never breaks and never gives up. The bodyshell is in a bit of a state, but the rest of it is brilliant. With a LiPO battery it lasts for ages - really ages and is so much fun down at the beach. We love it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya 58618 RC Monster Beetle 2015 - FastEddy Bearings Compatible with Tamiya Monster Beetle 2015 Sealed Bearing Kit - Tamiya 300053068 Electric Motor 540 Sport Tuned --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/47889937-monster-beetle-2015-rc-truck-1-10-model-building-kit](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/47889937-monster-beetle-2015-rc-truck-1-10-model-building-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
