Development

Hub was released in February 2014 with his groups name changed to Minicars.

Fictional biography
Everybody likes Hub. He's friendly, and is generally a nice, fun, affable bot to be around. On the other hand nobody actually trusts Hub. It's not his devotion to the cause that's the concern (mostly), but his ulterior motives for his friendship and jokes and the like. He is at his core a con artist, and everyone's a bit on their guard around him. Some think he's this way to cover for deficiencies or to stay in a position well above his actual aptitude level... or maybe he just likes tricking people.
