But the Kumamon Mini 4WD isn't just about looks. It features the “Super II Chassis,” which is known for its durability and expandability. Mini 4WD enthusiasts will understand how superior this chassis is! In addition to the chassis, there are plenty of attachment holes for bumpers and rear stays, so you can customize it to your liking.
Another highlight is the red 3-spoke wheels and small-diameter tires, which also reflect Kumamon’s image. The attention to both visual consistency and performance is impressive! Of course, it comes with a 4:1 gear ratio motor, so the speed is just right. Even beginners can enjoy it easily, which is a great feature.
When assembled, the size is 150mm in length, 97mm in width, and 44mm in height. It’s compact, yet it has a strong presence. Best of all, it's a snap-fit model, so no glue is required, making it easy to assemble. Even with minimal tools, you can get it running right away, which is great for Mini 4WD beginners.

By the way, for those who don’t know, who is “Kumamon”? Kumamon is a character created in 2011 to celebrate the opening of the Kyushu Shinkansen, born from Kumamoto Prefecture. Originally, Kumamon was slim, but after indulging in Kumamoto's delicious food, he became chubby! The design was created by art director Manabu Mizuno, and Kumamon's black body is inspired by Kumamoto Castle. He truly represents Kumamoto!
