The Koala Racer sports a playful shell complete with a koala driver figure, finished in a soft green and sky-blue palette with bamboo highlights. The figure arrives pre-painted and mounted, adding character without extra modelling work.
The VS chassis offers a short wheelbase and lightweight white ABS construction that helps with quick direction changes. Service points like hinged gear covers and simple battery holders make upkeep straightforward for regular track use.
This kit comes configured for a Type 130 motor and uses a 5:1 gear ratio as its baseline. It runs on large diameter narrow yellow wheels with green arched tyres, and you can fit a variety of Grade-Up Parts to enhance speed or cornering.
Compatible with standard Mini 4WD layouts, the Koala Racer responds well to basic tuning tweaks. Altering tyres, weight balance and upgrade components helps adapt the car to different track surfaces and lap strategies.
Tamiya 18093 balances a collectible appearance with a chassis that is easy to tweak, ideal for enthusiasts who enjoy both display and track time.
