Hands down the most beloved Autobot after the great Optimus Prime, Bumblebee Transformer is bravely and fervently dedicated to the cause of any good Autobot. One of the smaller Transformers overall, Bumblebee more than makes up for his modest size with a certain fearlessness that has come to be regarded by his fellow Autobots as indispensable.
In Transformers 3 Dark of the Moon, Bumblebee was the official protector of the main human character, Sam Witwicky. Staying mostly true to his 1980s persona as an upbeat, human-friendly Transformer, Bumblebee underwent some drastic physical changes, all of which had the effect of making him a more believable warrior. Its alternative mode Volkswagen Beetle underwent a complete overhaul, all except the vibrant yellow color, to a modern Camaro.
His doubt, stemming from constantly trying to prove himself to his older siblings in the comics and cartoons, is largely filed in the Transformers franchise, and Bumblebee’s modified personality and battle acumen allow him to face off against people like Decepticon Barricade, defeating him comfortably.
Bumblebee’s alternate mode has become a significant weapon in Dark of the Moon, so much so that you never feel the need to “call in the cavalry” when encountering a serious threat, as the once-a-little yellow car. he seems more than capable of taking on the enemy, all on his own.
Although his loyalty and care for his Autobot teammates is unquestionable, Bumblebee seems more inclined to be with and care for humans. With an annoying larynx that can’t seem to be fixed, even with advanced robotic technology, he speaks using entertaining radio voices with a warmth and humor to humans that must irritate the rude Ironhide.
The Autobot, whom Bumblebee admires the most, is of course Optimus Prime; he regards the great Prime as an almost mythical figure. So much so that Bumblebee’s penchant for self-sacrifice for the sake of good is a conscious mimicry of Prime’s.
With the constant threat of the Decepticon threat, Bumblebee Transformer’s energy cannons and ever sharper fighting prowess are always ready to aid the oppressed; And although he is no longer just Sam Witwicky’s robot companion, he is always ready to be by his side at any moment.
Transformers: Age of Extinction delves deeper and deeper into the myths of Transformers, establishing the legendary Dinobots as part of the Autobot crew. In fact, it appears that Grimlock is more of an Optimus Prime loadout than any other, and this becomes incredibly clear as the movie opens.
