- Puffer is an Autobot from the War for Cybertron Trilogy portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
After the quantum surge caused a time vortex, Autobots Pipes and Huffer were fused into Puffer, and alongside GoBot Road Ranger, were pulled to prehistoric Earth.[1] Despite their rather bizarre origin, they can still tussle with the best of them.
Toys
War for Cybertron: Kingdom
- Autobot Puffer / Autobot Road Ranger (2-pack, 2022)
- Accessories: 2 pipe blasters
- War for Cybertron: Kingdom "Autobot Puffer" is a retool of the Huffer from the same line, packaged alongside fellow retool Road Ranger in "Chapter 1: Through the Vortex"[1] of the "Golden Disk Collection". Puffer is based on Pipes's original toy, with new shoulders, forearms, hands, wheels, chest, crotch, head, accessories, and an additional transformation step to turn the cab upside down in robot mode. They transform into a cab-over truck in 16 steps, and the pipe blasters can store on the back or smokestacks. Their robot mode is covered in 5 mm ports as part of the C.O.M.B.A.T. System/F.O.S.S.I.L. Technology. They also have a torso transformation joint that functions as an ab-crunch.
- As an extra feature, Puffer can tow Earthrise Optimus Prime's trailer (or any of its redecoes), a carryover from Huffer.
- The two-pack is an Amazon and Hasbro Pulse exclusive in the U.S., and exclusive to Hasbro Pulse in Canada and the U.K.
Notes
- Puffer is based on a European variant of the G1 Pipes toy, which was the original Huffer toy in Pipes's colors. The name of the Kingdom figure is a fan nickname for the figure (a portmanteau of Pipes and Huffer, you see.)
