Impossible Toys

Development

Impossible Toys announced the Mini Charger line on their web site in July 2013.[1] Preorders for the individual toys web up a few days later on TFsource.[2]

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

Reception

The moonbase2 podcast for July 15th, 2013 discussed the Micro Chargers in the news. The hosts thought they were cute.[3]

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.
