Help Identify this transformer!

I found this guy at Target in a Scout Skystalker package!? Obviously someone had returned him in Skystalkers package as it was taped up and had no instructions. I purchased him anyway because he intrigued me and I figured I could identify him in the galleries. So far I haven't found him. Can anyone in this great community help me? Anyway, I can't figure out how to post photos in here so I'm linking to a Picassa page with the photos uploaded to it, hope that it works.

It's a Cybertron Armorhide mold, that part's obvious. I'm going to guess that it's the Target exclusive Movieverse Armorhide. Either that, or someone returned a Pretender Motormaster :shock:

Yes, this is the Target exclusive Armorhide.

Nice little TF. If you don't have him already, this isn't a bad find.

Matchbox (I think, might be hotwheels) has a line of little trucks the same size as him with transforming trailers.

I bought a black trailer for him from that set and he looks great in truck mode and transformed with his trailer base.

He's also been repurposed in fiction as Shattered Glass Huffer, good catch!

Here's a pic of my finished trailer for Cyb. Armorhide:

The stickers are from Reprolabels, the little trailer dollies are chopped up forearms of a McDonald's Happy Meal toy...
These are the ones I had used when I made my Armorhide trailer...

The only things I *had* to do was peel the stickers and trim down the peg so it can fit inside Armorhide's 'hitch'.
I recall seeing the trailers in the stores recently, but I think it was under a different name, but still the Hot Wheels branding!
