They are definitely the most uncommon Quasar cone/fin sets.
The non-clipped opaque white fins/cone are the most common and existed in bagged Quasar kits far longer than the chrome ones in boxed Citation Quasar kits.

The first rocket kits my father and I built/launched were the bagged Quasar and Patriot kits.
Bought both at Toys-R-Us one Saturday in 1978, built both that day, launched both on that Sunday. The Patriot was painted but less decals on first launch. Quasar launched on A8-3, Patriot on B4-2. I was all of 7 years old that summer and remember it vividly like yesterday.
