'''Hubcap''' has a long rivalry with [[Brimstone (TF 2010)|Brimstone]], one that Brimstone is all too aware of. Hubcap disapproves of the way Brimstone bullies others, and the Autobots' efforts to counter Brimstone have resulted in several battles. Now that they're on Earth, Hubcap, who considers himself the new "king of the road," has decided to end Brimstone's behavior once and for all.<br />

[[Image:Titan 2-18 Hubcap_kidgloves.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Function: Mob Drive-By.]]<br />
Hubcap and [[Slap Dash]] were summoned to Earth by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime himself]] to join a new, covert unit (not even admitting its function to ''[[NEST]]'') led by [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]. As open battles were turning humans against the Transformers, Prime wanted to them to monitor the Decepticons, wait for windows of opportunity out of the public eye, and then hit hard and fast. <br />
<br />
Both agreed to this, but when [[Crankstart]], [[Brimstone (TF 2010)|Brimstone]], and [[Trenchmouth]] ran amok in [[Salt Lake City]], they had second thoughts: Hubcap wanted to take action, upset at letting the Decepticons cause such havok and viewing it as being out of control. Bumblebee had him stick to the plan though, and the unit hit the Decepticons in an isolated stretch of road, tearing through them; Hubcap personally blew Trenchmouth off the road. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.18|Shadow War}}<br />

Hubcap and his unit would be part of the Autobot/NEST team sent to take down [[Bludgeon (ROTF)|Bludgeon's]] [[Russia]] command hub. However, the Autobots were betrayed and ambushed, and Hubcap was struck down by energy shurikens from Bludgeon himself. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.20|Divided Loyalties}}<br />

<br />
:Hubcap transforms into a hot rod based on a 1930s-style car of indeterminate make, but most closely related to the Willys 77 (with some elements of its successor, the Americar). His feet appear to be based upon the iconic foot design of the Japanese mecha franchise ''[[Wikipedia:Gundam|Gundam]]''. Compared to other toys from the [[live-action film series]], his transformation consists of a mere three or four very easy steps.<br />
<br />
:Like most toys in the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline]], Hubcap features a standard Autobot [[insignia]] rather than the live-action movie style Autobot insigna.<br />
