Fomo

Fomo is a member of the Techie Team from BotBots.

I didn't want to lose the lens cap, so I put it on right before we started filming!

Fomo loves being the center of attention. Sometimes, it's through performing daredevil feats. Others, it's by being an "influencer", recording and editing the action that's sure to get their fellow BotBots' energon pumping through thrills or bouts of raucous laughter. This Bot never stops seeking the next hit video to share with everyone!

Part of the Gamer Geeks squad, Fomo and his squadmates hijacked the mall's security systems every night to keep the little bots' shenanigans a secret from the humans.

When Burgertron and the Lost Bots accidentally revealed the BotBots' existence to the mall's night security guard Dave, almost every Bot in the mall shunned them. Mall Than Meets the Eye Fomo, however, was begrudgingly willing to work with them to make some "BotVids"... not because he liked them in any capacity or cared about improving their reputations, but because his influencer lifestyle meant that he needed a constant flow of content to feed to the other Bots, and he had to get it somewhere. He recorded and edited each of the Lost Bots' vids to their specifications, and each one stunk. He was not shy in letting them all know it too. When Burgertron discovered that Dave had set up (well, tried to set up) a series of traps to capture the BotBots, he convinced Fomo to record them braving and dismantling the traps... well, after they rebuilt the traps to actual working order. With the traps now set and Fomo recording, the Lost Bots dismantled the affair with incredible style and grace, even working in evading Dave at the last second. Fomo told them he'd just recorded the best BotVid ever, and soon the Lost Bots rushed to see the results: not them foiling the traps, but instead Sprinkleberry D'uhnut slipping on some oil Dave had spilled near the traps, repeated over and over set to goofy music. And the other BotBots' peals of laughter seemed to prove his choice of video right. Womp-womp! (Never) Be Yourself

Notes

Cartoon Fomo's camera mode.

• Fomo's name comes from an acronym that stands for "Fear Of Missing Out". It also rhymes with GoPro, a popular brand of sports camera.
• Fomo's static art is slightly mirrored compared to their toy. This causes the square around their lens eye to be put on the opposite side, yet their buttons and the camera viewport arm is still on the proper side as their toy.
  • Their cartoon appearance is based off the static art, with not only the lens eye on the same side. Additionally the red and green buttons on their chest match the stock arts horizontal lay out as opposed vertical on the toy.
• Like several characters in the BotBots cartoon, Fomo's gender is different from the toy's original bio from Hasbro's website. In Fomo's case, the original toy bio uses feminine pronouns, while the cartoon depicts the character as male.
