TAMA MBA52RZBNS-CI 50th Anniversary Ltd Ed Starclassic Mirage 6-Piece Drum Set, Crystal Ice

Since the 1970s, acrylic drums have been sought after for their unique sound and sleek look. Over the last two decades, TAMA has released limited edition acrylic drum kits of our own, starting with the Starclassic Mirage in 2007. To commemorate TAMA’s beginnings, the Starclassic Mirage will return as a limited edition 50th Anniversary model.

Characterized by strong attack and thunderous tone, Starclassic Mirage’s seamless acrylic shells deliver unmatched sound and stunning looks. In addition to its controlled, punchy, and rich sound, acrylic remains unaffected by changing climates, making it perfect for use in any environment.

The darker Black Nickel shell hardware perfectly complements the clear shells, ensuring that audiences and drummers alike will be instantly captivated by their stage presence.

Features

Seamless Clear Acrylic Shell

Acrylic drums have been coveted since the 1970s for their uniquely aggressive tone — strong attack, thunderous low-end, and a punchy clarity that cuts through any mix. The Starclassic Mirage takes this further with seamless acrylic construction, meaning no seam joints that could compromise structural integrity or consistency. The result is a shell that resonates evenly across its entire surface, delivering that signature acrylic tone at its most controlled and powerful.

Climate-Resistant

Unlike wood shells that can be sensitive to humidity and temperature shifts, acrylic remains dimensionally stable regardless of the environment — making it particularly well-suited for the Malaysian climate, where fluctuating humidity is a constant reality.

Black Nickel Shell Hardware

The darker Black Nickel finish on the shell hardware doesn’t just look striking against the crystal-clear shells — it’s also a durable, premium plating that holds up well over time. The contrast between the clear acrylic and the dark hardware is one of the most visually distinctive looks in the Starclassic lineup.

Die-Cast Hoops

Die-cast hoops are more rigid than standard triple-flanged hoops, giving you tighter contact with the drumhead for more precise tuning, a more focused tone, and consistent response across every lug.

Star-Cast Mounting System 

TAMA’s Star-Cast system suspends the tom shell within the mount rather than clamping directly onto it, allowing the shell to vibrate freely on all sides. The toms ring openly and sustain naturally — nothing is choked by the mounting hardware.

Iron Cobra 600 Hardware Kit (HV5WN)

The bundled HV5WN hardware kit is a professional-grade package built around TAMA’s Iron Cobra 600 series. Included is the HP600D Iron Cobra 600 kick pedal with its changeable cam system for customisable pedal action, the HH605 Iron Cobra hi-hat stand, the HS80W Roadpro snare stand, and two HC83BW Roadpro boom cymbal stands with Quick-Set Cymbal Mates for fast setup. Every piece is double-braced and built to the standard this kit deserves.
