- Bud Hansen is a human from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
Bud Hansen, Tim and Coby's younger brother, is a young boy, with all the exuberance and naivete that comes with. Though he's far from stupid, his imagination rules him. A fan of bad sci-fi movies and the Galactic Guardians, he doesn't just want to be a movie director when he grows up—he wants to be a movie director now. As such, he has a quirky flair for drama, though it's tempered by a sense of fair play.
Despite his years, Bud is able to be surprisingly mature and even somewhat wise when he has to be. This doesn't keep him from getting himself and the more foolish of his robot friends into some rather bad situations (like unprotected orbital reentry). Fortunately (or unfortunately), the Transformers don't seem to know enough about human development to apply the necessary butt-whuppins to prevent these minor disasters.
With his brother and their friend Lori, Bud assists the Autobots during their search for the Cyber Planet Keys. He has probably bonded the most with the geeky Mini-Con Jolt, who calls him "Bud-dude", after Bud insisted he stop saying "Master Bud". (Not that it's much of an improvement, dorkiness-wise.) He believes that if they wanted to, the Autobots could walk around in plain sight as long as people thought they were just fanboys wearing costumes. The sad thing is...he's probably right.

The older boys of the Hansen family were having a dirt bike race on a picnic. However, their friend Lori complained to Coby that they were ruining the peace and quiet, but Bud was able to calm Lori down (and butcher a classic metaphor at the same time.) A little while later, Bud noticed a strange humming sound along with a bright light in the sky. Soon after that, the kids noticed something falling from the sky, discovering that it was a giant robot at the bottom of a newly-formed crater. They hauled the robot out, and while repairing it the robot introduced himself as Landmine. After that, a talking plane swooped down from the sky and fired its missiles at the group, which Landmine blocked with its body. The plane was about to come around for another attack when a talking, flying fire truck came out of nowhere and rammed it, saving Bud and company, who were introduced to the rest of Optimus' team.

Bud doesn't trust the government because he's seen enough TV to know better. Smart kid!
