| His arms and shoulders sit slightly lower and closer to his torso, giving his arms a longer appearance. Bubs is now drawn with shadows and highlights, including a gleam in his left eye and special shading on his teeth; in some toons his legs are shaded as well. The colors of some outlines have been adjusted, most noticeably on his mouth.
His voice sounds slightly more raspy, and his teeth are also a little lighter and move more freely when he talks.

In various toons from [[do over]] onward, his belt curves around his stomach more.

| This is the current design.
| 2007
| Various toons from [[Happy Dethemberween]]; various [[Strong Bad Emails]] starting with [[nightlife]]
| Bubs' arms are slightly shorter. His head is shaped slightly different. His shading has been adjusted, appearing variably lighter, darker, or nonexistent since [[virus]]. His belt curves around his legs in more toons now.
His arms are animated in a different manner. Rather than bending on a single elbow joint, his entire arm moves in a smooth "bendy" curved manner as he gestures.
