Bo: Why are you always at the Great Forge?

Axe: Hmm... getting new armor.

Bo: Every day?

BUMBLE-LUMBA: Uh-oh! I gotta get back. Thank you for ordering, and we look forward to your next call. Have a safe day.

NANCY: Here’s your spinach, mushroom, and eggplant, enjoy.

EXCELINA: Oh! I gotta go! Nancy, please finish this table for me. Have a safe day sir.

SFX: Beep beep

ARMORAXE: *groan* So much for my rockin’ day.

As you may have guessed, the Samurai Pizza Bots are, much like Darkbind, more combinations of franchises that were never meant to meet. They’re Transformers, Autobots in particular, mixed with the stars of Punchy’s favorite anime, the Samurai Pizza Cats. As previously mentioned, is about three cats who are pizza delivery men by day and crime fighters at night. Chris rewrote that to be a quartet of Transformer robots who are pizza delivery trucks by day and Chris’s personal army… also by day.

The SPB’s get the call and get ready to report for duty at the mayor’s office. First up is Son-chu, the Transformer based on Chris’s own car, as previously mentioned. This was Chris’s ‘94 Ford Escort that he was driving at the time of the comic. Son-chu isn’t actually a Samurai Pizza Bot in the comic,  he’s Chris’s personal car and his title is “Leader of the CWCville Autobot Defense Squad”. His robot form is described as having “BatteryBlue/Yellow combination” of paint colors (Battery Charge Blue being Chris’s favorite Crayola crayon; he would later name his infamous Hyperdimension Neptunia CPU Goddess in its honor) and is described as having a “Strong personality under his hood”, despite the fact that he’s barely in the comic and shows no personality whatsoever. His introduction here shows his garage door opening to reveal him.

The green car is Bumble-lumba, as you may have guessed he’s a green Bumblebee. His vehicle form looks nothing like the movie version of Bumblebee that he is supposedly based on, rather he’s closer to the original animated Bumblebee, who was a Volkswagen Bug. Out of the five, Bumble-lumba is the one Chris put the least love into, barely getting more of an explanation than “he’s a Samurai Pizza Bot”.

And then, there is Excelina, obviously Chris’s equivalent to Arcee. She is likely named in honor of the star of Chris’s favorite show, Excel Saga. Her vehicle form is a motorcycle. “Nancy” there is mentioned in the CWCipedia addendums to be a hologram used by Excelina to deliver the pizzas, who for some reason despite not having a corporeal body to do so (why doesn’t she just hire a pizza delivery girl to work with her?) Chris also goes back and forth on how she fights - sometimes she’s “strong fisted” and sometimes she uses “sniper style.”

Axe: You too.

Armorer: HotMando01?

Axe: ForgeLady77?

Armorer: It is me.

Bo: You two know each other?

Axe: Yes, from a hate chat group about you.

Bo: About me?

Axe: You are irritated.

Armorer: Oh, really? How can you tell?

Axe: You're cleaning your cookie baking gloves on your skirt.

Armorer: They are not cookie baking gloves.

Axe: Have you ever tried to bake cookies?

Armorer: Put on your helmet.

Not only they were both theorized to be the spies, the traitors, but it's such a funny crack shipp.

The Armorer falling for the first one who doesn't obey her and Axe falling for the leader of the cult he hates.

A lot of comedy potential.

Bo: *turns to the Armorer*
