Robots
2008-2009
Bumblebee |
Status: Operational Features: Bumblebee’s vocal chords were never fully repaired after the battle but he was key to the success of the team during the 2008-2009 season. His main claw and side claw were able to pick up objects or push them around. At first, he had an extendable long arm mechanism that was removed because of its lack of usefulness. Bumblebee’s powerful armaments were hidden beneath his black and yellow decor. |

Status: Operational Features: Evergreen Destroyer 2009 , or ED-2009 for short, is able to comply in much less time than fifteen seconds.
