Bud Hansen

Bud Hansen is a human in the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.

You kiss in my story.

Bud Hansen, Tim and Coby's younger brother, is a young boy, with all the exuberance and naivete that comes with. Though he's far from stupid, his imagination rules him. A fan of bad sci-fi movies and the Galactic Guardians, he doesn't only want to be a movie director when he grows up -- he wants to be a movie director now. As such, he has a quirky flare for drama, though it's tempered by a sense of fair play.

Despite his years, Bud is able to be surprisingly mature and even somewhat wise when he has to be. This doesn't keep him from getting himself and the more foolish of his robot friends into some rather bad situations. Fortunately (or unfortunately) the Transformers don't seem to know enough about human development to apply the necessary butt-whuppins to prevent these minor disasters.

With his brother and their friend Lori, Bud assists the Autobots during their search for the Cyber Planet Keys. He has bonded probably the most with the geeky Mini-Con Jolt, who calls him "Bud-dude" (after Bud insisted he stop saying "Master Bud").
