The Tamiya 19024 Jr Fun-Vroom serves as an accessible Mini 4WD kit that emphasises straightforward construction via the EZ chassis. It combines authentic buggy styling with a compact build that lowers the barrier to entry for new hobbyists.
Influenced by full-size off-road buggies, the body offers a rugged silhouette that reads accurately at 1/32 scale. The smoke-colour plastic keeps the appearance neat while allowing modellers to observe the internal layout and gearing.
The EZ chassis is designed to be built without cement or screws for the main frame, making assembly quicker. It employs a central double-shaft motor arrangement akin to Mini 4WD PRO kits and provides accessible battery replacement via the underside of the chassis.
With only a handful of parts, assembly generally requires side cutters and tweezers. The car runs on a single AA cell and will travel roughly 1 metre in about 3.6 seconds in stock form, offering manageable speeds for practice and friendly track events.
Compact, approachable and well styled, the Jr Fun-Vroom is an effective entry-level Mini 4WD that balances easy assembly with an honest buggy appearance.
