Tamiya 94652 Savanna Leo Gold MS Chassis Collector Kit  [94652]

Savanna Leo Gold on the MS chassis for collectors

The Tamiya 94652 Savanna Leo Gold stands out in the Mini 4WD lineup with its gold-plated body mounted on the sturdy MS chassis. This release balances eye-catching looks with practical performance features that appeal to both display collectors and track-oriented hobbyists. It retains the dependable MS components from the original Item No. 18623 and includes large dish wheels plus 16mm rollers to help keep the car stable at speed.

MS chassis layout and balance

The MS chassis uses a three-piece detachable design for easy access during maintenance and tuning. With the motor positioned mid-chassis, weight distribution is more even, aiding stability through corners. The reinforced N-02 nose adds durability, while the 4:1 gear ratio combined with the Type 170 motor provides predictable power delivery.

Build notes and battery requirements

This kit assembles without glue or cement, making it approachable for builders of all levels. It runs on two R6/AA/UM3 batteries, which are not supplied. Painting is optional but can personalise the model, and basic hand tools are sufficient for assembly.
