Meaning of 銀星4型 in this sentence


The sentence is from dragon ball, the speaker is driving his car, chasing some
other guys. He just said "これじゃとてもおいつかん!"

> たしかやつらのより新型の銀星{ぎんせい}4型のカプセルがあっただろ!

I didn't find info on 銀星 in the dictionary. My guess is the sentence means
something like :

> They probably had a newer model of "type 4 stars capsule" (than mine)!

I'm also confused about the の after やつら, I would expect a (に)は instead...

**Edit :** Ok, on second thought, I think I misunderstood the particle より for
the adverb より.

I now think the sentence means something like :

> I was sure I had a "type 4 stars" capsule newer than theirs.




I think this would satisfy you. After having googled, since I don't have any
idea either, the word **銀星4型** is very likely to be borrowing the name of a
vehicle which a character called
**[Yamcha](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Yamcha)** is riding at in an anime
**[Dragonball](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Ball)**.

Here is a [**dictionary**](http://kaz.topaz.ne.jp/well/dragonball/terms.html)

>
> A new type **[Capsule](http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Capsule)** ( in
> English ) portable vehicle which Yamcha has.

I think the **[image would be like this](http://dragonballon.com/?p=164)** (
though the **type of the vehicle number ( name )** is different. So from the
**dictionary** of the Dragonball terms above, **once you "throw" the portable
capsule into the air**, the vehicle ( 銀星4型 ) shows up.

Wish you have good fun.
