Collector style Year of the Rat Mini 4WD by Tamiya 94612

The Tamiya 94612 Mini 4WD was released to celebrate the Year of the Rat in 2008 and features a memorable rat-headed driver figure. As a limited edition it attracts display collectors and hobbyists who prefer themed kits. The Type 1 chassis keeps the build simple and clear, making it suitable for those starting out in Mini 4WD modelling. The Falcon Jr. shell is supplied with a new sticker sheet that completes the model's playful aesthetic.

Designed mainly for display, the kit does include a motor to allow basic running when powered by two R6/AA/UM3 alkaline batteries (not included). The uncomplicated chassis layout is convenient for small adjustments and for keeping the model ready for occasional track use or showcase display.

Should I build or keep the kit boxed for collecting?

That depends on your goals. Keeping the kit sealed preserves its collector value, while building it allows you to enjoy assembly and display. Both approaches are common among fans.

Are replacement parts available for the Type 1 chassis?

Some standard Type 1 parts and common spares like gears and axles can be sourced from hobby suppliers. Availability varies by part and age of the kit, so check specialist retailers for exact matches.

How do I keep the decals looking their best?

Apply decals on a clean, painted surface and press them flat to remove bubbles. Seal with a thin coat of clear model lacquer if you plan to handle the car frequently.
