The Kyosho Inferno MP11 body comes in three pre-cut versions, designed to save 1/8 nitro buggy drivers time between heats. Kyosho now offers a clear non-decorated version, a printed white version and a fully pre-painted version in the official MP11 colours.

Three finishes for the Kyosho Inferno MP11 body

The first set, part number IFB028H, comes clear and undecorated: the classic base for those who paint their own body. The white IFB028HW version arrives printed in a single colour, ready for custom markings. Finally, the IFB028HC1 set is factory painted in the house MP11 livery, with matching decals.

The first two versions include the decal sheet and the window mask film. On the pre-painted part number, the window mask is logically not supplied since the decoration is already applied.

1.0 mm polycarbonate built for racing

All three bodies are vacuum-formed in 1.0 mm thick polycarbonate, a generous figure for 1/8 off-road. The aim is clear: to take contacts and bad landings without tearing, while retaining the stiffness needed to keep aerodynamic downforce consistent over the length of a main.

Pre-cutting is the real selling point of the set. Body outlines, wheel arches and access openings are already done at the factory, removing the most tedious — and riskiest — step in preparing a nitro buggy.

Price and availability

The IFB028H and IFB028HW sets are announced at 5,280 yen, while the pre-painted IFB028HC1 version is listed at 6,380 yen. At European dealers, the white body is found at around €38.75 and the painted version at around €44.08. All three part numbers are listed as available from Kyosho.
