The Kyosho MINI-Z 4x4 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon brings authentic rock crawler action to your tabletop, living room, or off-road adventures in a compact format. The injection-molded, fully pre-painted body with numerous scale details sets new standards within the MINI-Z series and looks like a high-quality diecast replica. The thicker material also ensures high durability during demanding crawling use.

As a genuine Rubicon model, this Jeep® proudly displays the “TRAIL RATED®” emblem and impresses with authentic details: the iconic seven-slot grille with mesh backing, clear headlight, indicator and taillight lenses (LED-ready), black fenders, dark grille accents and the distinctive black hardtop – all perfectly replicated on a MINI-Z scale.

Technically, the MINI-Z 4x4 is based on a ladder-frame chassis (MX-01) with multi-link rigid axles , similar to those found in larger 1:10 scale off-road models – only meticulously miniaturized. Metal gears, solid steel links, a fully ball-bearing-mounted drivetrain, and a high-torque, specially designed motor ensure controlled power delivery and excellent climbing capabilities. The 4WD system with adjustable wheelbase (the Jeep uses 120 mm ) and six included pinion gears allows for gear ratios ranging from extremely slow crawling to faster scale driving.

A newly developed one-touch body mounting system allows for quick removal of the body without visible brackets. The redesigned dampers with 360° spring plates prevent the spring plates from coming loose off-road. The sophisticated Ackermann geometry of the front axle delivers the smallest turning circle in MINI Z 4x4 history – ideal for precise maneuvering in tight spaces.

As a ReadySet , everything comes pre-assembled and ready to drive: unpack, insert batteries and drive off.
