Jr K4 Tasche Vivid Special FM-A Mini 4WD by Tamiya 95699
This 1/32 scale Mini 4WD assembly kit from Tamiya 95699 uses the FM-A front-motor chassis and represents a distinct colour variation of the K4 Tasche line.
The Jr K4 Tasche Vivid Special carries a fluorescent pink and green paint theme with bright yellow dish wheels and a clear light-gray ABS body that keeps interior detail visible. The shell reproduces a compact retro pickup silhouette adapted into Mini 4WD form. The cabin accepts up to two driver figures (figures sold separately) and the kit includes metallic stickers designed for this edition.
The FM-A chassis features a front-motor layout with an emphasis on aerodynamics and a front-biased center of gravity, making it well suited to tracks with frequent changes in elevation. The underside provides straightforward motor placement and accessible setup points. Low-friction front skid and roller components reduce contact drag while thicker rear rollers help maintain directional stability on standard Mini 4WD circuits.
Assembly follows standard Mini 4WD kit procedures; body mounts and panel clearances match FM-A norms, and the clear body finish preserves painted or moulded detail. This release is presented as a finished-colour variation rather than a performance upgrade, so tuning references are limited to compatible FM-A standard parts.
