Buzzer-Bot is a Go-Bot Protector from the Go-Bots continuity family.
Aww...freak out!

Buzzer-Bot is the "most clever" of the Go-Bots. What this says about the average I.Q. of Go-Bots in general is unknown.

Generally, Buzzer-Bot acts as backup for other Go-Bots operating on Earth, manning the scanners in the Go-Pod and alerting them to the various dangers they face. He does occasionally go out in the field, using his flying ability responsibly to help others.


Fiction

Go-Bots cartoon

Voice actor: Alessandro Juliani

Buzzer-Bot was chosen by the Go-Bot Council as "the most clever" of the available Go-Bots to join the Earth's Go-Bot Team on their mission to help Earth.

Toy bios

Buzzer-Bot was always rushing around to help people, and is known as an expert at solving the most difficult problems firmly and fairly. Any disagreements between the Gobots got solved by him!

Unfortunately was unable to fly except in wasp form. Initially, he could only transform if you helped him. Later he switched to a bike mode, using that and his keen eyesight to be the first to be aware of and respond to trouble. When he returned to wasp form, he upgraded this eyesight to highly developed light-up tracking system and retained his super-speed. Finally, he took up a convertible fun, and loved it so much he raced around like crazy!

Trivia

  • Buzzer-Bot seems to be a slight homage to Beast Wars Waspinator. Normally, it'd be a pretty tenuous homage, but then they went and made a Buzzer-Bot who turns into a motorcycle... just as Waspinator's spark was used to power the motorcycle Vehicon general Thrust in Beast Machines. Could still be a coincidence, granted, but....
  • Then again, Waspinator wanted to name the Predacon ship "Buzzer-Bot," but he lost the fight to "Beak-Bot." Curiously, Megatron appears to prefer Buzzer-Bot to Darksyde. Dawn of Future's Past
  • In the Go-Bots cartoon, Buzzer-Bot's speech is accompanied by a series of electronic beeps. He's the only Go-Bot they do this with.
