Bombus bombus

Bombus Bombus's Long Beach 1999 appearance.

Bombus Bombus was a lightweight robot that attended the Long Beach 1999 BattleBots competition. It was a gold and black T-shaped robot. It was armed with a small horzontal spinning saw and a rear spike. Due to numerous electronic issues, Bombus Bombus did not compete in either of its matches.

Bombus Bombus was supposedly named after a species of bumblebee of the same scientific name.


An earlier version of Bombus Bombus also entered Robot Wars 1997 in the lightweight division as Finagler.
