Summary of the Proto-Emperor Premium Black Special

The Tamiya Proto-Emperor Premium Black Special blends a classic anime-inspired livery with practical race chassis mechanics. The black body and gold decals create a striking presentation while the Super-II platform provides room to tune handling and speed.

Style and shell construction

Crafted from Black PS, the bodyshell is light and impact resistant. Metallic sticker detailing is included to emphasise the car's retro racing lines and to give a sharp finish on completion.

Details of the Super-II chassis

The Super-II chassis evolves the earlier Super 1 concept with reinforced bumper areas, a rear stay that locks with rotating switches and a screw-secured cover for extra stiffness. Its Yellow ABS construction offers a reliable base for competitive setups.

Modification potential and racing setup

Equipped for a Type 130 motor and a 4.2:1 gear ratio, the car is ready to run out of the box. Typical upgrades include different motor types, precision bearings and lightweight hollow tyres to lower mass and improve lap times.

Track compatibility and handling advice

This kit suits most Mini 4WD tracks. The supplied large-diameter narrow wheels and yellow arched tyres provide dependable traction and help maintain stability through technical sections.

The kit uses the Super-II chassis, which is designed for durability and easy modifications like reinforced bumpers and screw-fastened covers.
Yes. The default 4.2:1 gear ratio is a good all-round setting, but swapping gears to suit specific track layouts is a common improvement for better acceleration or top speed.
Begin with tyre choice and motor selection. Fit low-friction bearings and test different gear ratios, then adjust ride height and weight distribution to dial in cornering balance.
No painting is required for function. Parts are moulded in base colours, and decals are supplied. Painting is optional for those who prefer a customised appearance.
