Have you seen me?

_{This character or person needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.}

B-127 works in waste management in the lower levels of Iacon, and has done so for a long time. So long, in fact, that he hasn't spoken to anyone else in a while, and the isolation's kind of getting to him—he's built himself a group of imaginary friends to keep him company, and he talks way, way too much to fill the silence. Especially when he's unconscious.

His name is kind of clunky, so he's been trying out a few nicknames, like Badassatron; for the most part, people just call him Bee.

Maybe he'll figure out something better eventually.

Toys

One

• Bumblebee/B-127 (Robot Battlers, 2024)
  • Accessories: Energon sword, base

Based on his appearance in Transformers One, Bumblebee transforms from robot to Cybertronian car in only 3 steps. The figure can be placed on a base in order to perform action moves by sliding the finger slot.

• Bumblebee/B-127 (Prime Changers, 2024)
  • Accessories: Cannon, Energy blade, Transformation cog

Released as part of the Prime Changers line, Bumblebee transforms from a robot to Cybertronian sports car in 15 steps. His chest plate can be removed to reveal a transformation cog.

He has a slight design flaw: his feet have ankle tilt joints, but due to how the legs are designed, it can't really be utilized due to clearance issues by virtue of the position of the pin where the foot is attached to the leg protruding out.

Welcome back, Goldbug!

• Energon Glow Bumblebee (Energon Glow, 2024)

Released as a Walmart exclusive in the United States and in a few other select retailers across different regions, Energon Glow Bumblebee is an approximately Deluxe-sized toy, albeit slightly larger than his previously mentioned Prime Changers version. He also features simpler engineering, with a big portion of the toy's budget being instead dedicated to a light-up chest gimmick.

His paintjob is noticeably more gold-leaning (and in turn, more screen-accurate) than most other Bumblebees in the Transformers One mainline. Keeping in line with the 'Energon Glow' theme of the figure, his wheels, lower arms, and car roof are all molded in transparent blue plastic.

• Bumblebee/B-127 (Cog Changers, 2024)

Released as part of the first wave of Transformers One Cog Changers, Bumblebee transforms from robot to Cybertronian car with a press on the cog shaped panel located on his chest.

• Bumblebee/B-127 (Mega Changers, 2024)

Released as part of the rebranded "Mega Changers" line, this 12-inch Bumblebee figure transforms from a robot to a Cybertronian car.
