Buzzer's second card used a sticker to cover the middle section, and the copy was edited to remove any mention of Buzzer's psychotic anger.

Buzzer's fourth card was revised once again, this time striping out any mention of "the biker gang phenomenon."
Buzzer's fifth card matches his fourth card, with the exception of the usual revisions for 1986: 1985 figures featured peach file cards in 1985 and gray file cards in 1986. The 1986 cards also feature an H-1 marking.
