An image has just surfaced over the internet showing what seems to be our possible first look at Transformers Deluxe Road Ranger.
As usual, take this with a grain of salt until we find an official or reliable source. Road Ranger looks like an orange and black redeco of the Kingdom Huffer mold, possible inspired by the E-Hobby exclusive Road Ranger from 2004. We also have a better look at Puffer, a blue and white Pipes redeco which we had seen an image before. The image features 2 molds of each character, one in robot mode and another one in alt mode.
So far we know these figures should be part of a new Transformers Kingdom Golden Disk Collection which we had previously reported while back in March.

Mfw hasbro will never do a box set of all the Venezuelan/ Argentinian Huffers using the kingdom mold.

I think it's called Argentina.

At this point we need a Huffer repaint sub line tbh.
I don’t know if I’m joking…

I wonder if the full reveals for Golden Disk are for Pulsecon.

If we finally got a tap out from it…

Puffer is going to feel like a faded version of Pipes with a different chest color. Ranger has a dark color chest that is kinda similar to the color of Huff's chest. If the accessories were in a more neutral color so they look good on either figure the set would be perfect.

Technically, they should both be using the Huffer mold to be G1 toy accurate. But choices had to be made for parts diversity.

I like these two, but wish they would swap body molds. Puffy really should be using the Huffer body and Ranger would be fine using Pipes.

Honestly, if Hasbro want to release Cliffjumper, Brawn, Gears, Windcharger, Cosmos, Huffer and Pipes in all their outlandish South American variants I'm down for it.
Would love to see the all blue with metallic fleck Pipes next.

Having all three Ultra Class Powerglides, the Hasbro Universe White Deco (renamed Hothouse), the Takara Red Deco, as well as the 2009 Walmart red deco, as well as Combiner Wars Powerglide, I’m ok with him having a break.
I’m definitely with you on Gears though.

Road Ranger is beautiful

I don't feel that way, its got much more color variation than Pipes.

It's not the 80s anymore and I think they still have the same mentality. As long as it sells. It's a business

Road Ranger yes, the Puffer figure, I dunno. That is just some random "we got this color plastic leftover, well just toss it in the mold" vibe. From the 80s, when they just didn't give a F about whatever went into the packaging as long as parents bought it for their kids. It has an official transformers logo slapped on it!.

The six pack from Ehobby that contains Road Ranger also has Bug Bite, so he is already counted for as a selects exclusive.
-Bad Boy, a pearlwhite-darkblue redeco of Powerglide (decepticon)
-Path Finder a Blue-Yellow redeco of Cosmos
-Small Foot a yellow-red redeco of Swerve.
-Treds a green Warpath. (decepticon)

Not gonna lie, the first time I glanced at a picture of Road Ranger I wondered why Hasbro was doing a Capitan Huffy toy…
