Tamiya 95678 - Jr Mini 4WD Santa Claus on VS Chassis - Festive Racing Kit  [95678]

Summary of Tamiya 95678 Jr Mini 4WD Santa Claus

The Tamiya 95678 Jr Mini 4WD Santa Claus merges a holiday-themed shell with the compact VS chassis, offering both display charm and practical upgrade routes for performance minded hobbyists.

Bodywork and Decor

The model uses a metallic green bodywork alongside a factory-fitted Santa figure. The red chassis components and white A parts provide contrast, while the red wheel finish and white tyres keep the seasonal look consistent. Metallic sticker elements add festive motifs such as bells and snowflakes.

VS Chassis Characteristics

The VS chassis is prized for its lightweight build and shortened wheelbase, which aid manoeuvrability. Key A parts are produced in black for toughness. Supplied gold lightweight wheels and large arched black tyres help maintain stability, and the included 5:1 gear ratio offers balanced performance.

Modification Paths for Track Use

Although fitted with a Type 130 motor initially, the kit supports upgrades to faster motors, different tyre compounds, and gear modifications to suit different circuits. It is also compatible with many parts from Super-II and AR chassis families for expanded tuning options.

Tamiya 95678 Jr Mini 4WD Santa Claus offers a neat mix of seasonal looks and a flexible chassis that appeals to both collectors and racers planning upgrades.
