Bumblebee (One)
From MediaWiki
| The name or term "Bumblebee" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Bumblebee (disambiguation). |
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 B.
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.
- 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.

As with the rest of his wave, B features an upgraded suite of standard body parts, with sturdier hinge joints and slightly more complex builds than their Generation 1 counterparts.
- B-127 includes the usual pairs of gripping fists and open hands, a laser pistol, and a two-studded connectable figure stand.
Notes
- Of all the main cast of Transformers One, Bumblebee has the greatest connection to his live-action film series counterpart: his name being given as "B-127" is taken from Bumblebee, and his helmet design (with its large "cheeks" and movable "antennae") bears resemblance to his appearance in that film; additionally, his overly-talkative nature is a meta-gag about his "future" self being best known for not being able to speak. Conversely, his battle mask resembles his Generation 1 counterpart's original toy.
- Despite the name being an alias used on most promotional material, Bumblebee is never referred to as such in the film itself, presumably to avoid confusing audiences who already saw him receive that name on-screen.
