Tamiya 18008 - 1/32 JR Thunder Dragon Junior Model Kit Classic Mini 4WD

The Tamiya 18008 - 1/32 JR Thunder Dragon Junior Model Kit brings a compact wedge body that echoes full-size designs while keeping assembly simple. Built on the dependable Type 1 chassis, the kit balances display appeal with straightforward race potential for casual track sessions.

Type 1 Chassis Details

The Type 1 chassis gives the Thunder Dragon Jr. a robust platform that is easy to work on. Molded in black, the chassis pairs well with the kit's silver body. The snap-together construction removes the need for cement and lets hobbyists focus on setup and cosmetic touches.

Power and Setup Options

The model ships with a Type 130 motor that suits the car's scale and weight. Two selectable gear ratios provide options for speed or acceleration depending on the course. White wheels and black spike tyres deliver predictable grip across smooth lanes and modestly rough surfaces.

Presentation and Custom Work

Besides track use, the Thunder Dragon Jr. makes a tidy display model thanks to its recognizable silhouette. A sticker sheet is included so builders can personalise the finish and create a unique look for shelf or lane.

This Mini 4WD runs on two AA batteries, which you will need to supply separately.
Yes, you can fit alternate motors, but check physical clearances and gear compatibility with the Type 1 layout before swapping.
The snap-fit assembly makes it beginner friendly, though having done a kit before helps when adjusting gears and tyres for performance.
