The Tamiya 95678 Jr Mini 4WD Santa Claus combines a festive paint scheme with the agile VS chassis. Ideal for hobbyists who enjoy themed builds that can also be set up for club track days.
This edition uses metallic green bodywork paired with a ready-made Santa figure for instant display appeal. The red chassis elements and white A parts provide contrast, while red rims and white tyres maintain the seasonal colourway. Decorative metallic stickers add motifs like bells and snowflakes.
Engineered for low mass and a short wheelbase, the VS chassis helps the car change direction quickly. Black-molded A parts deliver rigidity, and the supplied gold lightweight wheels with arched large-diameter black tyres improve traction and responsiveness. The 5:1 gear ratio balances speed and handling.
Out of the box the kit includes a Type 130 motor, but racers often fit higher output motors, select track-specific tyres, and tweak gearing to suit surface conditions. Compatibility with Super-II and AR parts opens more tuning avenues.
Tamiya 95678 Jr Mini 4WD Santa Claus is a versatile kit that blends novelty styling with a platform suited to tuning, making it a practical choice for the Mini 4WD scene.
