That's definitely a possibility for mine, too. There's a Big Lots to this day right next to where the K-Mart used to be, about a block away from where my Dad worked. I'm sure he would have been the one to bring it home.
I have the Netflix Soundwave, but he's yellowed fairly badly already due to that weird plastic issue they were having at the time. If this one comes with Buzzsaw and/or another interesting cassette that I don't have, I may be tempted to replace him.
Puffer was close enough for me. Honestly I prefer that the two toys in the pack used the two different available toolings. I also love that all 4 uses of that basic mold have different headsculpts. It really sells them as unique characters.
You may be right. Looking up the bootleg, I found this review which mentions that it was sold at K-Marts. K-Mart was pretty much the only "department store" in my little town at the time, so it seems like a likely source.
Puffer should have been the Huffer mold in more-or-less Pipes' colors, but instead used the Pipes mold, so there's isn't much Huffer in the Puffer. In the end, very few houses were blown in.
