Looking through my gi joe items I came across blueprints for the Bugg. On the blueprints it indicated the Bugg as B.U.G.G. I checked around to see what the acronym stands for but could not find it. Anyone have an idea what it stands for as even yojoe did not even have the info. Any help would be appreciated.

The toy designers never did give the acronym any words to detail the meaning.
Over the years, I've just pretended B.U.G.G. actually stands for: Bathysphere Undersea & Ground Guardian

Similarly I often have wondered if WOLF stood for anything.

B.U.G.G. is not the only one. It has company in the field of missing acronyms.
What about the Cobra S.T.U.N.? I just pretend that it means: Split Turret Unconventional Neutralizer
