The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Muscular Movie-Star Power! Straight out of the classic 1997 Let's & Go!! WGP movie, the Gun Bluster XTO is back and better than ever in this "Premium" release. Featuring a distinctly muscular, fully-cowled body with an angular cockpit and a split rear wing, it commands attention on the starting line. At Hobby Hideaway, we highly recommend this kit for fans of the manga and anyone who wants an aggressive, wide-stance machine paired with the incredible jumping stability of the modern FM-A Chassis.
Advanced FM-A Front-Motor Stability The original Gun Bluster ran on the Super FM chassis, but this premium update brings it into the modern era with the FM-A (Front Midship Aero) Chassis. By placing the motor at the front, the car’s center of gravity is shifted forward. When tackling the steep slopes and jumps on our track, this nose-heavy weight distribution naturally forces the car to level out in the air, ensuring a smooth, planted landing every time. The chassis also features a streamlined underside that makes motor swaps quick and easy without removing the body.
Key Features & Technical Specs:
Iconic Fully-Cowled Body: Molded in blue ABS resin with dedicated metallic stickers featuring the classic yellow and red geometric flame designs.
FM-A Chassis Layout: Front-mounted motor design for superior stability on tracks with frequent elevation changes.
Striking Wheels & Tires: Equipped with vibrant red spiral 6-spoke wheels and small-diameter black low-profile tires for explosive acceleration.
High-Speed Gearing: Includes a 3.5:1 high-speed gear ratio to dominate the straightaways.
Track-Ready Hardware: Comes completely color-coordinated with a blue chassis, blue low-friction A-parts, a front skid bar, and 8mm thick rear rollers.
Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: The combination of a front motor and small-diameter wheels gives the Gun Bluster XTO Premium incredible torque and acceleration right out of the corners. Because the FM-A chassis is so stable over jumps, you can focus your early tuning on cornering speed. We recommend upgrading the standard 8mm plastic rear rollers to larger 19mm aluminum rollers on a rigid FRP or Carbon rear stay—this will widen your stance and keep that muscular body flying through the turns smoothly!
