A new test shot has appeared on Yahoo Japan for a clear Tagetmaster Hot Rod. This item is being offered by the same seller who was also selling the giant resin Unicron and other clear Generation 1 items. This auction, for Hot Rod with both his regular guns and also his Targetmaster Firebolt, suggests that this and the other clear items are all quite possibly products made during the run of Takara’s Transformers Collection bookstyle reissues.

Nice, but sadly I don't have an extra $700.00 laying around.

Was there every any doubt that the toys were from the Transformers Collectors Edition line?

Ok, so I'm guessing this is some rich dude who is off loading his collection in auctions. Looking to be making quite a bit of dough off them. I think this clear Hot Rod is pretty cool. Too bad I can't afford it.

Yes, the bookstyle TFC reissues…
I remember now going on ultraconvoy's website and seeing the clear Convoy/Optimus Prime he had from the TFC set.

Well, that definitely confirms these being from the TFC reissues… that's the only HR to have both his guns and TM… actually, the clear TM is kinda cool.
