The Z Wing Magnum (Z ウイングマグナム) is a Mini 4WD car released by Tamiya in 2014. It is the 7th entry in the Magnum series.
It is features in Bakusou Kyoudai Let's & Go! Return Racers! as the race machine for a boy named Tsubasa, who happened to have meet the now grow-up Go Seiba from the original series.
General Info
The Z Wing Magnum features the fully-cowled body that covers all the wheels. It has the body colors that are dominated by blue and silver, with some of the red on it. There's the large rear wings to provide downforce to the rear wheels. The car is equipped with R/C-type low-profile tires with the neon-green Saber-Premium-type 5-spoke small-diameter wheels.
On the front, the kanji Tsubasa (翼) is engraved on it.
By cutting out certain pieces of the body and applying the sticker included with CoroCoro Aniki volume 2, the alternate form Wing Magnum that resembles a F1 car can be replicated (coincidentally, Go Seiba is also a F1 racer by the time Return Racer! starts)
The gold-plated version of the car was also included in the limited edition of the first volume of the manga. Both the bodyshell and the wheel are gold-plated, and instead of the normal stickers it came with the special designed clear stickers.
In the manga
The machine, the Wing Magnum was originally purchased and later tuned by Tsubasa himself (with the original chassis intact). However, the Wing Magnum suffers from stability issue on cornering during the first few races with Peter's Diospada. Motivated by Tsubasa's determination, Go Seiba modified it into Z Wing Magnum by adding the front piece made from the scrapped part of his wrecked F1 car salvaged by Jun.[1]
