The Tamiya 95066 Astralster Aluminum Metallic Special is a refined Mini 4WD from the PRO Series that appeals to display collectors and track enthusiasts alike. Designed by Kota Nezu, its silver-coloured metal-plated body gives a clean, showroom appearance.
As a 1/32 scale model the Astralster uses an MS chassis with mid-mounted motor placement for improved weight balance. The chassis is moulded in black and fitted with matte black metal-plated wheels and low-profile tyres to enhance stability. The kit includes a 130 motor and a 3.5:1 gear ratio to provide a dependable performance base.
The kit is well suited to tuning and cosmetic changes, letting hobbyists try upgrades and setup variations. Assembly is straightforward and only requires simple tools such as a small Phillips screwdriver and plastic modelling side cutters, suitable for both newcomers and experienced builders.
