Tamiya 95720 Grasshopper Jr. Black Special 1/32 Mini 4WD on VZ Chassis  [95720]

Overview of the Grasshopper Jr. Black Special (Tamiya 95720)

This edition pairs the classic Grasshopper Jr. silhouette with Tamiya's VZ chassis in a single-color Black Special finish. The kit targets builders who want an authentic-looking Mini 4WD build without extensive tuning work, making it straightforward to assemble and display.

The VZ chassis is compact and laid out for easy construction and accurate proportions. It features familiar mounting points that preserve the car's factory-style appearance, rather than offering a platform optimised for heavy modification or competitive upgrades.

Assembly follows the usual Tamiya approach: parts require fitting, basic cleanup and finishing. The product is particularly relevant to collectors seeking a period-correct paint scheme and to modelers after a simple, faithful Grasshopper Jr. recreation.

The Grasshopper Jr. Black Special on the VZ chassis is best regarded as a display-friendly kit: it emphasises original styling and straightforward assembly rather than performance upgrades.
