Following on from other recent announcements we get to hear about a new car & chassis type. This new car is called the 'Raizzan' and is a GT/Super Car type body. One of the main changes here is that it comes with a black smoked colour body and the optional body panels which result in a dual Translucent Black and Cherry Red body. There are other new features as well which are detailed in the description below I found, although this is possibly of course always open to change as the release approaches.
Description
In addition to the MS and MA chassis, we are delighted to announce the third new chassis with a doubleshaft motor from the Mini 4WD PRO Series; this time, the ME chassis inspired by the words “midship”, “evolution”, “easy” and “enjoy”. Inheriting ease of assembly from the MA chassis, the ME chassis is lightened by an ergonomic design. Designed by Japanese designer Kota Nezu of znug design who conceived Item 18634 Astralster (MS), Item 18640 Raikiri (MA) and Item 18100 Eleglitter (VZ), the Raizzan body features a monocoque frame and removable panels inspired by high-end sports cars. Raizzan can be written as “雷斬’’ in Chinese characters and – like the Raikiri (雷切) – the name is inspired by a legendary sword that appears in Japanese mythology. This kit is a committed design which would make a superb full size car and opens the door to endless possibilities for Mini 4WD.
New ME chassis
The ME chassis is a compact, lightweight and efficient design powered by a double-shaft motor in the center. （About the same weight as FM-A and MS chassis.）
A parts are lightweight ABS plastic, which makes the model lighter.
Plastic bearings are P parts from the VZ chassis for efficient drive.
An outstanding combination of rigidity and flex ensures the ME gives a fluid drive.
Front and rear bumpers are screw-attached and can be removed when customizing or displaying the car.
Very solid motor attachment ensures minimal drive loss.
Includes a type 130 double-shaft motor
The model features a 3.5:1 gear ratio.
About the Model
This is a Mini 4WD model assembly kit. Length: 156mm, width: 97mm, height: 40mm.
The ME chassis is molded in black ABS plastic and paired with black ABS plastic A parts.
The low and wide body molded in tinted smoke color ABS plastic provides superior aerodynamics via air intakes and outlets.
Detachable fender and cowling parts are molded in red ABS plastic.
Its sharp headlights draw inspiration from birds of prey such as the peregrine falcon and the eagle, and the car should catch the eye with its sharp design cues around front and rear lights, and fenders which look like a bird with spread wings.
Newly designed T-spoke wheels (gold color) are paired with small diameter low-profile tires (black).
Separately sold figures can be installed when the model has an open top.
Two R6/AA/UM3 batteries are required (separately available).
