Windblade is much like Bumblebee in that her true talent isn’t really on the battlefield, even if she is more than capable of holding her own in battle. As she made a new home on Cybertron while trying to aid Metroplex, Windblade would ultimately find herself rising through the ranks of government, becoming one of only a handful of people in charge of the major decisions of running Cybertron.
While there, Windblade found a new purpose in life: as a Cityspeaker, she was capable of talking to Metroplex, the massive city-sized Transformer all the other Cybertronians were living in, since the rest of the planet was too wild to inhabit yet. When the Camiens were called back to Cybertron in the hopes of reconnecting with their homeworld, one of several Camien delegates transported to Cybertron was Windblade. On Caminus, Transformers generally knew peace and weren’t troubled with matters of war…until they made their return to Cybertron. No, unlike nearly every other Autobot on this list, Windblade was born on the planet Caminus, one of a few worlds colonized by Cybertron prior to their second civil war when they were on an expansionist kick. Windblade is one of the newest creations and additions to the Transformers universe, and placing her here is slightly cheating as well, as she isn’t technically an Autobot. Popular and charismatic he is, but powerful he simply isn’t. Aside from that, Bumblebee’s small stature doesn’t lend itself to incredible feats on the battlefield. Unfortunately, the counter to that is he’s sometimes too nice - when Optimus found himself in prison and Bumblebee was left in charge, his unwillingness to take charge and do what was necessary caused the Autobot army to split into multiple factions each with their own intentions. Bumblebee is considered one of the most trustworthy and likeable members of the entire Autobot army, which is why he’s often given such key leadership positions. He even became part of the council to watch over Cybertron once the war ended and both sides realized the planet was inhabitable once more. Enraged the Decepticons literally forced him into doing something despite their claims of being for the people, Bumblebee took up with Optimus Prime’s group from then on.Īfter that, he worked alongside Optimus Prime for years, even becoming the leader of the Autobots multiple times when Prime was sidelined or captured. Long before the Decepticon war ripped apart Cybertron, Bumblebee worked as a courier, until he was dragged into the conflict at its earliest stages when a Decepticon transmission tricked him into delivering a package to a factory that turned out to be a bomb. As one of Optimus Prime’s oldest subordinates, one thing we can say about Bumblebee is that he’s loyal.
