Background
Biography
Bumble Blast started life as a humble beehive in the Radiant Mountains, where for ages the bees made the most sweetest, most magical honey in all of Skylands. When Kaos heard about this "super honey", he wanted all of it for himself and soon launched an attack on the peaceful Bees. But when his minions arrived to plunder everything the bees had created, they were met by Bumble Blast. He alone had been home to the bees and considered himself their protector. Using the power of the magic honey, Bumble Blast valiantly battled the evil minions, who felt his powerful sting that day. Afterward, Bumble Blast roamed Skylands as a protector of nature, where he soon joined with the Skylanders.

Trivia
- He, Swarm and Hot Dog are the only Skylanders with bee related moves.
- He, Trigger Happy, Shroomboom, Hot Dog and Fire Kraken all have their tongues hanging out if the honey drooling out of his mouth counts.
- His "beezooka" slightly resembles the Beeshooter from Plants vs. Zombies Adventures.
- Although his upgrade descriptions say that his "beezooka" shoots bees, the insects that he shoots sting more than once so it is more likely that he shoots wasps or hornets.
- They also might be magical bees, or this could just be an exaggeration. They could also be a species of bees that stings more than once.
- Although his upgrade descriptions say that his "beezooka" shoots bees, the insects that he shoots sting more than once so it is more likely that he shoots wasps or hornets.
- The Life elemental symbol can be seen on the side of Bumble Blast's shoulder.
- In his character trailer, there is an error in which the symbol for the Earth element appears next to his name instead of the Life element.
- His catchphrase, "The perfect swarm", might be a play on The Perfect Storm.
