The Tamiya Slash Reaper is a Mini 4WD kit that marries an aggressive buggy body with a VS chassis aimed at agile handling. It suits modders and competitors seeking a responsive platform.
The body takes cues from off-road buggies, featuring pronounced lines and ventilation that help keep the motor cool and reduce unnecessary mass. The Gun Metal and Orange livery provides strong visual contrast for display or racing.
The VS chassis is compact and light, delivering a short wheelbase that enhances manoeuvrability on tight circuits. It comes with front 16mm rollers with rubber rings to aid stability, and the 4.2:1 gearing is aimed at a practical compromise between speed and control.
The Slash Reaper accepts a variety of motors, tyre choices and gear sets to suit different track surfaces and racing styles. Its shell is compatible with MS and Super-II chassis, allowing experimental setups for racers.
The kit offers snap-fit construction for an uncomplicated build that is accessible to beginners, while the pre-moulded colours make a tidy base for custom painting if desired.
The Tamiya Slash Reaper on the VS chassis is a versatile Mini 4WD choice for racers and collectors who value tuning options and distinctive styling.
