Description:
Huffer with Caliburst (Commander Class, 2010)
Part of the first wave of Power Core Combiners Commander Class figures, Huffer transforms into a long-nosed semi truck cab of undetermined, probably-made-up model. He also has a secondary "power up” mode, in which he forms a super robot torso; in this configuration he can use the drone-limbs from any 5-pack set to make a new super-robot. 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 5mm holes of any kind, instead wielding Caliburst via a Mini-Con Powerlinx peg. His hands will hold smaller pegs, such as Classics Rodimus’s cannon, however.The first release of Huffer featured a bright orange hood, a running change was quickly instated that switched the hood to the same yellow-orange color as the rest of his body. Both versions are pictured at right.This mold was also used to make Crankcase and Assaultmaster.During the period between December 26 2010 and January 31 2011, Hasbro ran their "Supercharge Your Holidays” promotion: for every $20 spent on Hasbro-branded product, customers could receive a free, random product from a list provided by Hasbro. Among the items on the list was "Transformers Combiners & Speed Stars Mini Vehicle”. According to this discussion thread on Allspark.com, Huffer with Caliburst was one of the figures distributed.
