The Dyipne (Japanese: ジプニー, Jipunī, also known as Jeepney in other languages) is a Mini 4WD REV car released by Tamiya in June 6, 2019, initially exclusive to the Philippines.

It was created to celebrate the 2019 Mini 4WD Asia Challenge that was held in Manila, Philippines.

General info

The Dyipne, as the name implies, is inspired by the Jeepney, an iconic form of minibus originally derived from the Willys Jeeps left by American forces just after World War II. As the Philippines' infrastructure was all but destroyed, enterprising Filipinos saw an opportunity with the surplus Willys MBs reportedly sold by black-market businessman Harry Stonehill and modified them for public transport, adorning them with kitsch decorations and gaudy paint jobs which lent the jeepney its unique, iconic appearance.

In line with real-life jeepneys, the Dyipne comes with flashy decals adorning the bodyshell. The sides show a silhouette of the driver and its passengers, along with the Lils Hobby Center logo, while three silver-coloured horse figurines are perched above the bonnet.

Standard variant

The standard Dyipne comes with a red bodyshell and silver roof. The decals include the "Asia Challenge" logo in brush script, and the Hyper-Dash Motor logo amongst other things, along with place names showing the jeepney's "route"–Quiapo, Makati and Parañaque,

The kit comes equipped with the metallic silver, small diameter low-profile A-spoke wheels paired with black low profile tires. The chassis frame and the A parts are molded in black and red respectively.

Silver Metallic

The limited Silver Metallic variant features a silver-plated bodyshell reminiscent of real-life jeepneys, and cyan flame-style graphics. The decals include "The Brickyard" and place names showing the jeepney's "route"–Makati, Mandaluyong and QC (Quezon City).

The kit comes equipped with the silver plated, small diameter low-profile A-spoke wheels paired with black low profile tires. The chassis frame and the A parts are molded in black and turquoise respectively.
