Tamiya 94899 JR Slash Reaper Red Special - Compact Mini 4WD for collectors

The Tamiya 94899 JR Slash Reaper Red Special is a standout 1/32 scale entry in the Mini 4WD line. Built on the adaptable MS chassis, this kit combines modular construction with a striking red ABS body sculpted around the iconic slash-shaped silhouette, making it a solid pick for display or club racing.

MS chassis build and body styling

The MS chassis gives a tough, modular platform made from reinforced ABS to resist impacts during fast runs. It accepts a double-shaft motor for balanced power delivery while the Slash Reaper body keeps aero efficiency and visual presence in check.

Race-focused wheels and handling

Equipped with carbon-reinforced 4-spoke black wheels and large diameter hard slick tires, this kit aims to improve grip and straight-line stability. Black 16mm rollers help with cornering on typical track layouts, and the new sticker sheet allows straightforward cosmetic customization.

Upgrade route and gearing

There is a wide selection of Grade-Up Parts sold separately for tuning handling or speed. The 4:1 gear ratio offers a practical balance between acceleration and top speed, suiting both newcomers and seasoned builders looking to modify setup.

  • Scale: 1/32
  • Material: Red ABS, Black ABS
  • Motor: Double-shaft
  • Gear Ratio: 4:1
  • Wheels: Carbon-reinforced 4-spoke
  • Tires: Large diameter hard slick

How long does assembly usually take?

A straightforward build for this kit typically takes a few hours depending on skill level and whether you paint or apply stickers. Beginners should allow extra time for trimming and dry fitting parts.

What batteries and motor are required?

The chassis is designed for a double-shaft motor and runs on two AA batteries, which are not included. Use fresh alkaline or rechargeable AAs for best results on the track.

Can I tune this for competitive racing?

Yes. The MS chassis accepts many Grade-Up Parts for roll bar changes, reinforced stay parts, and upgraded rollers to tailor handling for specific circuits.

Is painting required for display pieces?

The body is molded in red ABS but many collectors prefer to add custom paint, decals, or panel shading to enhance detail before final assembly and display.
