- BuggyMan is a Renegade from the GoBots continuity family.
BuggyMan is a Renegade who transforms into a dune buggy. Cy-Kill considers him a competent officer, one with good judgement and an appropriate level of initiative. He likes talking in the third person and has a collection of insects, worms, and arachnids.
Fiction
Kre-O comic
BuggyMan was sent flying to the air along with Chromedome by Brawl's assault on a pile of bricks. Or he might be jumping in to kung-fu kick Brawl, it isn't explicitly clear. New Military Unit Combaticon! Bruticus, Combine!
Renegade Rhetoric
Cy-Kill often put BuggyMan in command of a Thruster. Cy-Kill also thought BuggyMan would be able to utilize Clutch's obsessive personality to good effect. Renegade Rhetoric, 16/10/2015
BuggyMan kidnapped Dr. Turgenova as part of a three-pronged assault on the Guardians' Space Hawk production capabilities. Renegade Rhetoric, 19/10/2015
Timelines
The Buggyman is one of the odder, and creepier, Renegades and one Small Foot had once flattened in a fight, but someone decided to put him in the team meant to save the whole universe from destruction anyway! With his new, stronger Transformers-emulating body and an array of icky insect drones, he was attached as navigator to the second cross-dimensional team. His first act on meeting the first team was to have to confirm he wasn't Bug Bite using a fake name.
While Admiral Man-O-War and Path Finder clashed over strategy, the Buggyman sent his drones to scout the area. Path Finder's plan of enlisting Autobot aid was given a boost when the Buggyman announced he'd located the 'bot base nearby. Sunrise
Notes
- As with Bad Boy, Path Finder, and Treds, Buggyman, and Man-O-War's designs in "Spatiotemporal Challengers" are based on prototype versions of Generation 1 Mini Vehicles—in Buggyman's case, a red version of Beachcomber. (We're pretty sure red Beachcomber wouldn't have had Buggyman's rather toothy mouth, though.)
- Kre-O BuggyMan, like all the other non-toy Kreons, uses existing parts in his design, including wheels on his feet and Trailcutter's helmet.
Foreign names
- Japanese: Buggyman (バギーマン Bagīman)
