Originally a Diaclone, released in both Japan and Italy. Recently reissued by Takara as a female character. Yee-hah!

"My Red Tracks has no Hasbro copyrights but it has a rubsign...and I got him from the states...which one do I have?" The rubsign and the TF stickers suggest it's the MB TF version. The Japanese Diaclone Stingray just says "TAKARA JAPAN". No dates. The TraSformer Pre-TF Stingray will have the same copyright with dates as above. The way you tell them apart is the accessories or the presence of a rubsign and the stickers. See those stickers your TF Tracks has on its wings? There is a square. Well on the Diaclone/TraSformer version, instead of a square there is a "D" for "Diaclone", and also on the hood of your Tracks there is an Autobot insignia in the flames. Diaclone/TraSfomer says "CS" for "Corvette Stingray". (Fred, this is where you insert your info.) =) (Editor's Note: Don't look at me; you're doing fine on your own...)
Also, the Japanese version has an extra long handgun which means it cannot be held by Tracks facing totally forwards. The TraSformer and TF Tracks have the regular shortened gun. |
