Carisma Launches All-New 1/14 Mini 4XS Off-Road Buggy
This is a genuinely new launch (specific specs, price, story framing), but it's a 1/14 off-road buggy racing platform — squarely in Carisma's 'historically NOT covered' bucket (buggy/truggy bashers, non-crawler racing). It doesn't fit the show's scale/crawler focus, nor does it match Carisma's newsworthy patterns (licensed rally RTRs, scale crawler bodies, micro crawlers). As a major-brand kit outside scale coverage interest, it lands low within the major-brand kit range despite clear novelty.
