Tamiya 94968 - Shining Scorpion Premium Red Super-II Classic

The Tamiya 94968 Shining Scorpion Premium Red Version revives a classic Lets & Go! look in a compact Mini 4WD package that appeals to both display collectors and hobbyists who enjoy modest upgrades. The Super-II chassis pairs with the bright red bodywork for a distinctive presentation.

Performance Base and Visual Details

The Super-II chassis provides a reliable base for this model. The kit includes a 130 motor and a 3.5:1 high-speed gear set that suits higher speed runs on straightforward layouts. An ABS body with updated sticker sheets gives a faithful red finish, while 26mm black low-profile tyres on red 5-spoke wheels complete the build.

Collecting and Modding Considerations

Designed mainly as a collector piece, the Premium Red Version still allows for basic modifications to improve handling or speed. Red-moulded parts such as the battery holder, rear stay, side stays, and stabilizer head maintain a consistent look while letting experienced builders make selective upgrades.

  • Scale: 1/32
  • Body Material: ABS Plastic
  • Motor: 130 included
  • Gear Ratio: 3.5:1 High Speed Gear
  • Tires: 26mm black low-profile

Is this kit authentic to the original series styling?

Yes, the model draws its design cues from the Lets & Go! era and the included sticker set helps recreate the original red-themed look faithfully.

What level of building skill is required?

The kit is suited to hobbyists with basic modelling experience; assembly is straightforward with common modelling tools and patience for decal placement.

Which consumables are not included?

Batteries are not included. You will need two AA batteries to power the model, and optional paint or glue if you intend to personalise the body finish.

Can this be upgraded for better lap times?

Simple upgrades like tyre selection, motor swaps, and fine gear adjustments can improve lap times, though competitive builds often require deeper component changes.
