    why did you make 2 threads about This?

    anyway, yes, but it's fairly rare, or parts were swapped.

    If I remember correctly, just like the generation 1 Hotrod which first came with metal toes then was replace with plastic. I think Takara also did the same with Targetmaster Hotrod when it was release later....

    All original Targetmaster Hotrods had rubber tires and plastic toes. There are no Hotrods with plastic tires(regular or reissue). The Hotrods were regular with metal feet, regular with plastic feet, and finally targetmaster with plastic feet. If you have one thats anything different then you have either a reissue or a parts sway. Also here is more info from Fred's Variant page
    Hotrod:
    Type 1 regular version, large thigh stickers, metal toes (japan)
    Type 2 regular version, large thigh stickers, plastic toes (japan)
    Type 3 tm version, large thigh stickers, plastic toes (taiwan)
    Type 4 tm version, small thigh stickers, plastic toes (taiwan)
    Type 5 reissue (regular version) reverted molding, metal-toes (China)
    Type 6 reissue, targetmaster version (in-process)

    One other thing to check on this. If your TM Hot Rod has a painted chest, instead of a sticker, then you have the TFC Reissue. (type 6)
