Offroad (CW)
- Offroad is a Decepticon from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Offroad is a new recruit to the Stunticons, and he is yet to be trusted by his teammates. Luckily, his experience operating in extreme conditions gives him the opportunity to gain that trust, by taking on all the treacherous missions that his new comrades steer clear of.
Normally, this distrust between Offroad and his teammates could be considered a hindrance to the combination process, but where Menasor is concerned, that's probably just a drop in the ocean...

Offroad and the rest of the Stunticons were created in response to the failure of a Decepticon campaign to acquire Autobot superfuel. Realizing they needed a strong ground force, Offroad and his kin were created by modifying Earth vehicles with Cybertronian technology, and then bringing them before Vector Sigma to be imbued with the spark of life. The Autobots brought the Aerialbots to life at the same time, and the Decepticons found themselves on the losing side until the Stunticons merged into Menasor. The Decepticons lost nonetheless, though they acquired the key to Vector Sigma as a consolation prize. The Key to Vector Sigma, Part 1

- Decepticon Offroad (Deluxe Class, 2015)
- Combiner Wars Offroad is a new-mold Deluxe Class figure which transforms from a 4x4 double-cab pickup truck to robot and back! As a Combiner Wars Deluxe limb he will be able to combine with any Voyager Class toys released as part of the same subline but is, of course, intended to be combined with Motormaster, Breakdown, Drag Strip and Dead End to create Menasor. Offroad includes a collector card featuring his packaging art.
- Offroad's toy began life as an update of the Triggercon Ruckus,[1] and as such features a head and sculpted detail drawing inspiration from the character. The decision to make him a new character instead was reportedly due to a combination of name unavailability and Hasbro concluding that Ruckus didn't make that much sense as a Stunticon anyway.
- He was retooled to create First Aid.
