Tamiya 18072 - Fire Dragon Premium VS Chassis Revival

The Tamiya 18072 Fire Dragon Premium brings back the iconic 1988 silhouette with modern updates on the sturdy VS chassis. This kit appeals to collectors and hobbyists who want a showpiece that also has potential on race day. The Fire Dragon Jr. shell is molded in eye-catching metallic red ABS for a polished display finish, while the VS chassis comes in metallic gray to give a solid, race-ready base.

Performance Details

Included is a Type 130 motor matched with a 4.2:1 gear ratio to deliver reliable running characteristics. The large-diameter fluorescent pink wheels and black spike tyres provide strong traction and stability across many track surfaces. Low-friction black rollers help reduce drag in corners, making setup tuning straightforward for competitive runs.

Customisation and Display

The kit contains a new metallic-look sticker sheet so builders can personalise the Fire Dragon Premium with period-correct decals. Snap-fit assembly keeps construction simple for all experience levels, and the detailed styling ensures it remains a standout in any Mini 4WD collection. Note that two AA batteries are required for operation and are sold separately.

Assembly is snap-fit and beginner friendly, but basic tuning like roller alignment and tyre seating will improve on-track performance.
The VS chassis accepts common Mini 4WD hop-ups such as low-friction rollers and higher torque motors; the kit already includes a Type 130 motor and stock gearing.
Keep the gear area clean, check tyre condition regularly, and ensure rollers spin freely to maintain consistent lap times.
