:''Jazz is an [[Autobot]] in the [[Transformers Animated]] [[continuity]].'' [[Image:Jazzanimated.jpg|thumb|right|200px|When push comes to shove, you've gotta do what you love, even if it's not a good idea!]]

Though a member of the [[Cybertron Elite Guard]], '''Jazz''' is a bit of an independent thinker. He's reluctant to disobey orders, but he has more of an appreciation for the finer things than his compatriots. This is evidenced in his better choice of vehicle mode disguise, a "sweet ride" drawn from Earth culture. He is also a Robo-Ninja, like Prowl, although his training is more progressed. Instead of ninja stars, however, Jazz uses a pair of [[wikipedia:nunchaku|nunchaku]]. He seems to be the only one of the Elite Guard willing to learn, and fits in with the Earth team pretty well.

He is ''incredibly'' cool.

{{spoiler|The Elite Guard}}
[[Image:Freaked jazz-1.jpg|thumb|left|Crap, a [[Sari|human]] in a [[Spike|leading]] [[Rad_White|role]]!]]
Jazz accompanied [[Supreme Commander]] [[Ultra Magnus (Animated)|Ultra Magnus]] and [[Sentinel Prime (Animated)|Sentinel Prime]] to [[Earth]] to retrieve [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]]'s crew and the [[AllSpark (Animated)|AllSpark]]. When Magnus ordered Jazz to activate a [[force field]] around [[Elite Guard ship|their ship]] to prevent [[Human|organic]] contamination, Jazz expressed interest in getting a closer look at them. This caused Sentinel Prime to warn Jazz that the organics would eventually spit acidic goo that would melt through his body armor and destroy vital [[circuitry]]. Jazz was...less willing to meet the organics after that.

When [[Sari Sumdac]] managed to sneak aboard their ship, he tried to send her out without provoking her. When she realized that Jazz was afraid of her, she tried to scare him. After [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead]] explained that Humans were harmless (and [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] explained that Sentinel Prime was a jerk), Jazz accompanied the Autobots to a Sumdac manufacturing plant that was going haywire. Jazz and Prowl managed to keep the AllSpark-powered drones away from Sari and Optimus long enough for Sari to shut down the assembly line. He and Prowl traded several martial arts-centered quips throughout the battle, talking about [[Metallikato]] moves like the "[[Five Servos Of Doom]]" attack. {{storylink|The Elite Guard}}

:Jazz transforms into a car that looks similar to [[Jazz (G1)|his G1 counterpart]]. His exhaust pipes turn into nunchucks. With the character's stronger martial arts skills, this means he is supposed to be the Bruce Lee to Prowl's ninja. He looks every bit as cool, if not more, than his second cousin twice-removed (you know, [[Jazz (Movie)|the dead one]]). He even has headphones.

Bumblebee (Animated)

2007-12-27T20:04:50Z

12.217.100.40: He likes his name! He does. It doesn't sound silly or emasculating. He's yellow and black! And on Cybertron, bumblebees aren't cute, fat little winged insects that spread pollen. They're badass!

{{disambig3|Bumblebee}}

{{coming soon}}
:''Bumblebee is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Transformers Animated]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:Bumblebeeanimated.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Little. Yellow. Different.]]
'''Bumblebee''' the youngest, yellowest, and most energetic of the Autobots, and he's quite convinced he's the coolest thing on four wheels. A hyperactive wisecracker, he has a tendency to bite off more then he can chew. It's a good thing he's often found palling round with Bulkhead. Still, Bumblebee is good people, even if he seems to get on [[Ratchet (Animated)|Ratchet's]] nerves all too easily.

He's a repair-bot. He's not programmed to for this kind of action! Obviously, that doesn't stop him.

Don't, for ''any'' reason, call him short.

He likes his name.

==Fiction==
===Transformers Animated cartoon===
:''Voice actor'': [[Bumper Robinson]]

[[Image:AniBee-SG.jpg|thumb|left|200px|[[Rattrap|We're all gonna die]], aren't we?]]
Bumblebee can save [[Sari Sumdac|a little girl]] from a rampaging slug creature and retain his cheerfulness and good humor while doing so. He also calls [[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus]] [[Optimus Primal|"Big Bot"]]... sounds [[Cheetor|familiar.]]

His hands can transform into laser guns, which he uses for welding, and he has a [[Bumblebee (Movie)|strangely familiar]] [[faceplate]]—probably also for welding. Not for battles. But IF he gets into battles, despite the fact that he maintains that he's a repair-bot and not programmed for combat, he can slide the mask into place and put those lasers to good use.

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2008)

: Bumblebee will be yellow, look a bit like the little car from ''Lupin the Third'' (and a little like a smart car), and have these cute little rocket booster pods that can go on either side. It seriously looks to be the cutest Transformer ever (right up there with [[Moon (BWII)|Moon]]). He cheats a bit in robot mode, with a fake car roof chest. He will not have a faceplate on the toy. Just a smirk.
