I'm now faster, stronger, and smarter than the 1984 version of me, who I am totally not!

Huffer is a perennial complainer, even now that he's been upgraded and partnered with the Mini-Con Caliburst. One would think being stronger, faster, and more intelligent than ever before would curb his attitude, but those folks don't know Huffer very well. At least the Decepticons now have a second reason for hating him; not only is he annoying, but he can also kick their skidplates.

Power Core Combiners

• Huffer with Caliburst (Commander Class, 2010)

Part of the first wave of Power Core Combiners Commander Class figures, Huffer is a Scout-size rescue truck who transforms into a robot. Huffer can swap between his normal head and a larger head so that he can also serve as a torso for Power Core Combiner drone-limbs. His chestplate has a flip-up Mini-Con Powerlinx peg that allows him to use any Mini-Con as chest armor, though the nominal choice is his pack-in partner Caliburst. Huffer lacks standard peg (5mm) holes of any kind, instead wielding Caliburst via a mini-con powerlinking peg. His hands will hold smaller pegs, such as Classics Rodimus's cannon, however.

This mold was also used to make Crankcase.

Notes

• At BotCon 2010 Hasbro referred to Huffer as "the only Heritage character in Power Core Combiners" suggesting that they may view him as being the same character as Generation 1 Huffer (although in recent days Hasbro has been less than interested in distinguishing between continuity variants of its repeating characters so it's open for interpretation).

• There appears to be a running change apparent within the UK stock which has a fully yellow hood rather than orange suggesting he was originally to be the same colour all over
