Dont know if these are rare or not to be honest, the only difference is that one the back of the box it says tonka where "now there are no limits" used to be. i have the tonka versions of rescue mission, global defence, afterburner and choplifter. i would think only the very serious collector would collect these box variations, for me personally its about playing the games, not looking at the box-art, so i dont bother with that stuff.

I beleive Tonka games were only released here in the US. I think most US SMS are from Tonka, as I have many.
