Default Is there a Tiburon Hotwheel?

Ok,I know that this is a silly question. But did Hotwheels, or Matchbox, or any toy car maker make any RD Tiburon toys? I've found that Hotwheels did make a GK one, but not an RD1 or 2.



Any help would be great. Even if the answer is that there is no answer.



Want a new toy for my desk.

Yeah...there were die cast cars of RD1's from Korea. I have a red one sitting in a box collecting dust. There's also a bunch of GK's, Accents (larger Rally edition ones), and Gen Coupes too, which I have a whole bunch of.

I've found the GKs, and the Accents online, but not the RD1. Did they ship the RD1s to the states or is e-bay my best bet for that? Don't really want a Gen Coupe, but hotwheels makes a few different versions of that, I have one for my son already.

Its a larger die cast...not the size of a hot wheel. The doors and hood open. Some dealers were able to get them a long time ago, but I got mine from Sam (owner of Shark Racing) waaaaay back in the day, like around 2000/2001.

Ah, the size really isn't an issue. Would actualy like the larger one with all the detail . I've gone to their website and did the "contact us" maybe I'll get lucky.
