Hyper Dash! Yonkuro[]
The Rise Purge Emperor.
Due to the explosion caused by Kill Crow's Night Seek Trigger inside the Tamiya Plamodel Factory Shimbashi shop, Yonkuro's Emperor got its chassis busted and became unusable, forcing Mr.Sumeragi to secretly replace the car with the new one, while masqueraded it as a Emperor with different chassis without Yonkuro's knowledge. According to Takei on his Twitter[1], this form is refers to as Rise Purge Emperor (ライズパージエンペラー).
During the race in the first course of the Dark Dominion Castle (Which is Shinkuro's house that has been taken over by Dark Dominion), the 'Dragon's Forest', the 'Emperor' got ram multiple time by the likes of Super Dragon Jr, Fire Dragon Jr, Thunder Dragon Jr and Saint Dragon Jr. released by Mr.G. The bodyshell of the 'Emperor' eventually began to break apart (In reality, the parts that disguised it as a Emperor began to fall off from the main bodyshell), causing massive speed loss. Fortunately, Shinkuro's car, the Shooting Proud Star, arrived with the Shooting Container Booster that contains the reinforced parts for Yonkuro's 'Emperor'. The 'Emperor' had now become the Rise-Emperor with the reinforced parts equipped. Yonkuro eventually managed to pass the first course thanks to the new car.
It has the MA Chassis made of carbon-mixed nylon plastic.

It has the significant skill "Eagle Feather", which increases speed at 5 percent, tire friction at 15 percent, off-road at 15000 points and efficiency at 10 perecnt. The hologram-sticker version of the body was also available.

Trivia[]
- In the 2nd issue of CoroCoro Aniki, the Rise-Emperor has the different design. This is because Tamiya and Hiroyuki Takei (the car designer and manga author of Hyper Dash! Yonkuro) hasn't finalize the car design at that time.
- As shown in the 3rd issue, Takei made 2 different sketch designs for the Rise-Emperor and each of them has different color schemes (One being the unnamed, orange and black color scheme, while the other one (Later known as 'Type-T') has silver and orange color scheme). The more traditional Emperor/Horizon-styled color scheme was chosen for the finalized car over the others.
- It is so far, along with Shooting Proud Star, God Burning Sun, DCR-01, Cannon D Ball and Dancing Divine Doll, are the only MA Chassis car in the regular lineup to be equipped with large-diameter wheels.
- The sketch designs shown in the 3rd issue of CoroCoro Aniki has the original wheel design. It was however scrapped for unknown reason.
- The promotional version of the Start Dash Topgear Duel Masters TCG card, which was included in issue 4 of CoroCoro Aniki, depicts Topgear in the golden armor that resembles part of the Rise-Emperor's body.
- It is chosen to be the cover car for 2016 season of Tamiya Japan Cup. It is the second car from Hyper Dash! Yonkuro to be chosen as a cover car, following Shooting Proud Star from last year's Japan Cup.
