Overview of the Jr K4 Tasche Vivid Special by Tamiya 95699
The Tamiya 95699 kit is a 1/32 scale Mini 4WD assembly that sits on the FM-A front-motor chassis and represents a vivid colour variant of the K4 Tasche series.
The Vivid Special livery uses fluorescent pink and green with yellow dish wheels and a clear light-gray ABS body that leaves interior detail visible. The compact retro pickup styling has been translated into a Mini 4WD shell. The cockpit supports up to two driver figures (sold separately) and metallic stickers that match this special finish are included.
The FM-A chassis adopts a front-motor layout with aerodynamic tuning and a front-biased centre of gravity that handles tracks with changes in height well. The underside layout makes motor installation and basic adjustments straightforward. Low-friction front skid components and rollers reduce lateral drag, while thicker rear rollers add directional stability on conventional Mini 4WD circuits.
Assembly follows standard Mini 4WD kit procedures; body mounting points and panel clearances conform to FM-A conventions, and the transparent body finish keeps painted or moulded detail visible. This is a colour and finish variant rather than a specialised race kit, so tuning notes remain within FM-A compatible parts.
