The Tamiya Sonic Saber Premium offers a blend of classic Mini 4WD styling and a chassis suited to modifications. Based on themes from "Bakuso Kyodai Let's & Go", the vivid colour scheme is true to the original while giving tuners a dependable Super-II base to work from.
The shell is made in racing white plastic, shaped for efficient airflow and visual accuracy. Metallic stickers are supplied to recreate the original livery, enhancing appearance without impacting weight distribution.
The Super-II platform is moulded from black polycarbonate ABS resin to provide a light yet reliable frame. Key items such as the battery holder and rear stay are produced in metallic green ABS resin to match the kit styling and secure components. The chassis supports common performance upgrades for handling and drive efficiency.
Improving lap times typically involves motor swaps, tyre selection and refining gear ratios. The kit's default 3.5:1 gearing offers a fair balance between acceleration and speed, and the Type 130 single shaft motor supplies steady power for club racing or informal events.
The Sonic Saber Premium is suitable for those who want a display-worthy model that can also be tuned for the track. Its Super-II chassis and authentic styling make it versatile for hobbyists at different experience levels.
