Tamiya 95468 Laser-Gill Super-XX Special Mini 4WD Race Kit  [95468]

Laser-Gill Super-XX Special Overview

The Tamiya 95468 - Laser-Gill Super-XX Special is a standout Mini 4WD chassis built for racers and collectors who want a mix of style and function. Drawing inspiration from the Mini 4WD comic "New Generation Racer Mini 4 Kids," the bodywork features a shark gill motif that gives the car an aggressive, track-focused profile.

Visuals and Bodywork Details

The body comes in prism blue with eight gill-like slits that aid the aerodynamic look, and metallic stickers accent the finish for added contrast. These visual touches make the model both a display piece and a serious contender on the track.

Chassis Build and Materials

This kit rides on the Super XX chassis, prized for its strength and balance. The main frame is molded in carbon fiber-reinforced nylon for improved toughness, while a metallic gray ABS nose guard and rear roller stay help protect high-impact areas.

Performance Upgrades and Tuning

There is plenty of scope for tuning: large-diameter dark blue tires and fluorescent green wheels are fitted for traction and stability, 14mm rollers with rubber rings improve cornering, and included 4:1 speed gears let racers adjust top speed versus torque. The motor is supplied, allowing focus on gearing and handling mods.

Assembly Notes

Assembly uses a snap-fit construction aimed at easing the build for newcomers while still giving experienced hobbyists room to tune. Note that the kit needs two R6/AA/UM3 batteries, which are sold separately.

The Tamiya 95468 - Laser-Gill Super-XX Special mixes distinctive aesthetics with a durable Super XX platform, making it a versatile pick for racers who want a solid base for upgrades and track tuning.
