Tamiya 18603 - 1/32 Nitro Thunder YLW Fin Mini 4WD Finished Model Collector Display  [18603]

Tamiya 18603 - 1/32 Nitro Thunder YLW Fin Overview for Collectors

The Tamiya 18603 - 1/32 Nitro Thunder YLW Fin Mini 4WD Finished Model comes fully assembled and painted, making it a strong pick for shelf display and showcase collections. Built at 1/32 scale on the MS chassis, it uses a three-part detachable layout and a mid-ship motor arrangement that helps deliver a balanced stance and sensible tuning potential. The tough ABS body draws on Nitro Thunder and Nitro Force buggy styling, so it stands out whether displayed or taken out for a casual run.

Chassis Layout and Build

The MS chassis under this model is arranged for practical flexibility. It houses a double shaft motor that transmits drive directly to both front and rear wheels, removing the need for a propeller shaft. Batteries sit on either side of the motor to centralise mass, and the modular front and rear sections can be swapped with Tamiya Tune-Up Parts to change handling characteristics for different track styles.

Upgrades and Fitment

Although sold as a finished display piece, the Nitro Thunder YLW Fin is compatible with a wide selection of Tamiya Tune-Up Parts, letting hobbyists refine handling, trim weight, or tweak aesthetics. Typical upgrades include motor, tyre, and chassis tuning parts to suit either display or occasional track use.
