===Bumblebee===
A scout under the command of Optimus Prime, B-127 was part of the final battle for Cybertron — a battle that ended with the Autobot position overrun by the Decepticons and necessitating a full-scale Autobot evacuation of Cybertron. As part of this evacuation, Prime tasked him with a reconnaissance mission to the distant planet of Earth—its location hidden from the Decepticons—in the hopes that the scout could establish a base for the Autobots to regroup and strike back. Launched off-planet aboard an escape pod, B-127 crash-landed in California in the year 1987, having the bad fortune to land in the woods where Sector Seven agent Jack Burns had been conducting a training exercise.
Trying to flee the hostile humans, B-127 quickly scanned a jeep alternate mode to make his escape and fled through the woods until he was cornered outside of an abandoned mineshaft. Despite his best intentions to assure the humans of his good intentions, the Autobot scout found himself attacked by the Decepticon Blitzwing. Believing that B-127 knew the whereabouts of Optimus Prime and his forces, the Decepticon grappled with the little Autobot in an attempt to get him to speak; when his foe retorted that he would never disclose Prime's location, Blitzwing "made it official" by ripping out B-127's voice box and grievously injuring him by hurling him off a cliff. Before the Decepticon could execute him, however, B-127 emerged triumphant by jamming one of Blitzwing's missiles into the Decepticon's superstructure, blowing Blitzwing to smithereens.
His voice box damaged, his memory cells offline, and his body failing, the critically wounded B-127 was able to limp to a nearby riverbank, and before entering stasis he was able to scan a new disguise: a Volkswagen Beetle. It was in this form that B-127 remained for some time while he recovered, and at some point the derelict car found its way to a run-down salvage yard in Brighton Falls, where it was sheered and left to rust.
In August of that year, B-127's derelict form caught the attention of Charlie Watson, and while trying to start the car she triggered the Autobot's radio, broadcasting a signal that inadvertently reached the Decepticons Shatter and Dropkick on Saturn. Several days later, on her eighteenth birthday, yard owner Hank allowed Charlie the car as a birthday present if she could get it to start. After fixing the engine, Charlie drove her new car home, and while repairing the car her investigations inadvertently revealed B-127, still wounded, mute, and amnesiac from his battle on Earth. Inspired by the buzzing noises of his broken voice box, Charlie named him "Bumblebee."
The next morning, Sally Watson used her daughter's car to drive the family dog to the vet, with Bumblebee almost revealing himself to a panicked Charlie as she tried to catch up with him. That afternoon, Charlie took him to a nearby beach to teach the Autobot that he couldn't reveal himself to other humans, and during a subsequent walk in the woods Charlie wound up activating a garbled hologram of Optimus Prime, jolting Bumblebee's memory and reminding him of Prime's final battle on Cybertron. His continual attempts to communicate with his broken radio inspired Charlie to replace it with the radio from her late father's Chevrolet, and Bumblebee's curiosity about her old diving tapes and records prompted Charlie to open up about the passing of her father and her difficulty coping with his death.
As Bumblebee played with his radio, the noise attracted the attention of Charlie's neighbor Memo, and after swearing him to secrecy the pair went for a drive in Bumblebee, with the two humans realizing that Bumblebee was trying to use the radio to communicate. Following an antagonistic encounter with Tripp Summers at a cliff-diving party, the trio decided to get revenge by pranking her house; Bumblebee got carried away while egging her car, however, and wound up destroying it entirely. Their hasty escape caught the attention of Sheriff Lock, and Bumblebee was able to easily evade the sheriff's police cruiser during the subsequent police chase.
Realizing that she couldn't drive Bumblebee the next morning, Charlie left him in the garage while she went to work, though Bumblebee's curiosity soon got the better of him, and his clumsy exploration of the Watson home had him inadvertently destroy the house's interior in the process, while his experiments with an electrical outlet led to a massive energon surge. His destruction of the house caught the attention of Memo, who called Charlie home from work to deal with the problem. Though Memo was able to coax Bumblebee back to the garage to lie low, they were unable to clean up the house before Charlie's parents arrived, and the ensuing argument led to Charlie leaving home in Bumblebee... running into a Sector Seven ambush in the process, the agency having tracked Bumblebee thanks to his energon surge.
Bumblebee transformed to robot mode to carry Charlie to safety, and although he was able to outmaneuver the humans he was ambushed by Shatter and Dropkick, who took the little Autobot prisoner. Their interrogation revealed Prime's hologram; armed with the knowledge that the Autobots were on their way to Earth, the two Decepticons left to call in their army to finish off their foes—but not before blasting their prisoner.
Thanks to Charlie and Memo jury-rigging one of Sector Seven's electrical guns, the two were able to blast enough electricity into Bumblebee's systems to bring him back online, the reboot restoring his memory cells in the process. Cornered by Sector Seven agents, a weakened Bumblebee only found the strength to fight back after watching Agent Burns manhandle Charlie, blasting the humans until Charlie was able to talk him down; despite his human friend's belief that they needed to hide, Bumblebee set out to stop the Decepticons, bringing Charlie with him.
The pair raced through the streets of Brighton Falls, accompanied by Charlie's family and pursued by more Sector Seven agents, until they reached the radio antennae that Shatter and Dropkick had repurposed into a makeshift Cybertronian relay to contact the Decepticon fleet. Bumblebee leapt into action immediately, killing Dropkick by tearing him apart with a chain and rescuing Agent Burns's disabled helicopter from crashing. As Charlie tried to manually disable the Decepticon relay, Bumblebee was able to narrowly prevent Shatter from taking her down, and as the pair battled in the dry dock below Bumblebee was able to blast the dam holding back the ocean, allowing the rush of water to fatally crush Shatter against a ship. With the Decepticons vanquished, Charlie dove into the water to guide Bumblebee back to shore, and as the pair recovered from their ordeal Agent Burns, having realized the error of his ways, allowed them to leave before his reinforcements arrived.
His memories restored and his body healed, Bumblebee drove Charlie to the Golden Gate Bridge to say his goodbyes so that he could reunite with the other Autobots and continue his mission on Earth. After thanking his human friend for helping him find his voice, Bumblebee scanned a passing Camaro and drove off, meeting up with Optimus Prime on the bridge and driving away. In the woods that night, Prime commended the scout for his bravery as the pair watched more Autobots arrive on Earth.
===Transformers: Rise of the Beasts===
Seven years after Optimus Prime and the other Autobots had arrived on Earth, Bumblebee was laying low in New York, maintaining a low profile until the Autobot leader sent an order for Bumblebee and all of the other Autobots to meet up at their base of operations. Bumblebee arrived at the same time that Arcee had arrived, seeing that fellow Autobot Mirage had in fact taken a human, Noah Diaz, to their location and revealed himself to the human. Optimus Prime arrived shortly thereafter and made the plan for the Autobots to rely on Noah and Mirage to get the Transwarp Key in order to head home to Cybertron, the young Autobot was placed in the same position as Optimus and Arcee to wait around the mainland to the Museum on Ellis Island.
While waiting for Noah to retrieve the Transwarp Key, Bumblebee spoke to Optimus on the matter of humans, the young Autobot in belief that not all humans are bad. While Optimus would agree that one human (Charlie Watson) had treated Bumblebee well, Optimus stood firm on his belief and added he did not want Bumblebee going to drive-in theaters anymore after the young Autobot said that Optimus "can't handle the truth."
Bumblebee's wait was cut short when the Terrorcons arrived on the scene, and he rushed into battle alongside the other Autobots to face the threat. When Optimus was overpowered by the Terrorcon leader, Scourge and Battletrap, Bumblebee rushed in with Optimus's battle axe, but the young Autobot was impaled on Scourge's arm blade, and soon was blasted by Scourge's cannon, the Terrorcon leader shortly ripping Bumblebee's insignia off his head.
Bumblebee's body was carried away from the Museum by the other Autobots, and was kept hidden until the Autobots would enlist the help of Stratosphere to get to their next location, Peru. Arcee looked over the body alongside Optimus, suggesting an Energon transfusion could revive the young Autobot. Bumblebee's lifeless body was kept in the care of Stratosphere for the time being, eventually being placed in a village nearby the city of Cusco with the Maximals.
The leader of the Maximals, Optimus Primal, revealed that there was Energon in the area, but it was currently inert and would not be of use to revive Bumblebee. The Autobot remained lifeless until the arrival of Unicron through a transwarp gate. The activation of the gate caused the Energon in the area to ignite and flow, reviving Bumblebee in time for his arrival to the final battle.
Bumblebee arrived in time to reinforce the Autobots, skydiving out of Stratosphere as he would shoot at the multiple Terrorcon pods containing Scorponoks as well as the multiple Freezers that had pinned Optimus to the bridge. His fall was intercepted by the Terrorcon Nightbird, but he overpowered her, initially using the Terrorcon as a shield against Scourge's shots before the young Autobot impaled Nightbird's spark with one of her own wings, destroying her as he landed.
Bumblebee assisted Noah in the final battle, and upon the defeat of Scourge, Bumblebee's insignia was returned to him by Optimus, though Optimus soon ordered Bumblebee and all the others to escape as the Autobot leader prepared to destroy the Transwarp Key. Bumblebee drove off in his upgraded off-road Camaro alternate mode, carrying Elena Wallace in him as he and the other Autobots and Maximals escaped.
Bumblebee then returned to America alongside the other Autobots via Stratosphere.
