Bonz-Eye
Bonz-Eye takes everything very seriously. Maybe too seriously. Okay, definitely too seriously. This katana-wielding warrior lives by a code of secrecy so secret that she never tells anyone that she lives by a code of secrecy. She puts incredible value in her physical skills, and guards her emotions fiercely under a veneer of utter calmness and sardonic wit.

Lost Bots!
Bonz-Eye decided to join Dimlit's group of Lost Bots on their quest to see if there were tribes out there where they fit in better.
As the group visited various stores in the mall, Dimlit and Bonz-Eye went to the home-and-garden store as they thought it might be where they fit best. They realized the Shed Heads weren't for them after Rootwing and Slobber Rock invited them to go outside to garden, since they're indoor bots.
Bonz-Eye later returned with the other Lost Bots to Lost and Found, where all the Lost Bots played together. Lost Bots!

Bonz-Eye was originally a potted bonsai tree for sale inside a home and garden shop, but somehow ended up in the mall's Lost and Found department. Later, she was brought to robotic life by the mysterious energon cloud that gave rise to the BotBots, and ended up as one of the Lost Bots, who stayed in the Lost and Found, unseen by humans and other BotBots alike. Lone Bot and Carb
She "greeted" Burgertron when the lost Hunger Hubs member found himself in the Lost and Found, and by "greeted" we mean "attacked him with her sword". Though she was wary of the stranger, his tales of hundreds of other BotBots divvied up into themed squads where everyone had a place to belong piqued her interest and need to figure out her past, and joined him and the other Lost Bots in their first outing into the wider mall. She played lookout for the hideous flesh creature that threatened the BotBots' very existence... and quickly determined that the being was no threat, being impossibly unaware of the loud electronic train the Lost Bots had hijacked. The creature (Dave) eventually noticed when the train made it up the escalator to the upper-floor food court, and the Bots changed to their "disguised" modes to prevent detection, having been warned about the Sacred Rule of the Mall prior, aware the flesh being must never know the little bots exist. Unfortunately, Burgertron transformed into a burger, and Dave immediately moved to consume the free food he'd found. Dimlit leapt to smack Burgertron out of Dave's grasp, and in this brief moment of distraction, Bonz-Eye and the other Lost Bots jumped from the train to find a new hiding place. Dave left to return the train to the lower floor, and as he did, the other BotBots revealed themselves to Burgertron and the Lost Bots, having seen everything. The Sacred Rule broken, Burgertron was kicked from his squad, and the other squads shunned the newcomers. Now five in number, the Lost Bots returned to the Lost and Found, believing they could repair their reputation and re-join the other BotBots in time. Mall Than Meets the Eye
Bonz-Eye grew to realize that while the other Lost Bots each had a squad they felt they "belonged" to, she couldn't think of any that felt right to her. Overhearing Burgertron talking about the "Dark Side of the Mall", she figured that such a mysterious and supposedly-dangerous place was surely where a squad of mighty warriors like herself would live, so she set off on her own to investigate. At first she only found dimly-lit stores, one of which had a number of irrationally creepy dolls whose distressing voiceboxes were way too easy to set off, totally weirding her out. Even weirder, Dave had arrived at his favorite bench in the mall in the Dark Side's main hall, and prepared to post a picture of himself enjoying a tasty expensive macaron he'd bought... a macaron that turned out to be Lady Macaron from the Sugar Shocks! Bonz-Eye quickly set off the dolls, which set Dave off into a paralyzing panic as he flashed back to the horrors of Clown Camp, and Bonz-Eye rushed to Macaron's rescue. But it turned out Macaron didn't want rescuing, and with a stream of insults, set off to explore the Dark Side despite the dangers. Bonz-Eye was forced to both distract Dave and pull Macaron away from the various temptations, eventually ending up in the very store where she had first been for sale, now empty and decrepit. The somber sight of the abandoned bonsai tree display made her realize that there was no squad where she "belonged", that she was one of a kind, a discovery that gave even the sardonic Lady Macaron pause. Determined still to get Macaron back to her store safely, Bonz-Eye pushed a tray of stale pastries from a cart into the main path, having long learned Dave's eat-and-sleep habits, and the two snuck out while a pastry-sated Dave snored away on his favorite bench. Back at the candy shop, a now-serious and softer Lady Macaron explained that she had let herself be bought because she wanted to get away from the rest of her squad for a few, and that being alone didn't have to be a bad thing. Bonz-Eye returned to the Lost and Found, greeted warmly by her fellow Lost Bots, and mused on her future. Lone Bot and Carb

- In the cartoon, her sword is formed from the small red flag posted in her alt-mode's planter-box.
