Buck Grunt is the youngest son of General Buzz and the late Lyla. He has two older brothers, Ripp and Tank.

Biography[]

Life leading up to The Sims 2[]

Studious and smart, Buck is serious but also nice, and has an A+ in school when the game begins. He is the nicest member of the Grunt household, with 9 nice points. He also has a good relationship with his acquaintance Jill Smith, despite the feud between his family and hers.

Overall, Buck gets along with his family, but is somewhat distant from Tank and General Buzz. According to his bio, his accomplishments are largely ignored by his father. He is overweight when the family is first played, and is 4 days away from becoming a teen. He wants to be a pet stylist to the stars, although there is no such career or level in any job. When he becomes an adult, he will be voiced by Stephen Kearin.

While Buck has dark blue eyes, he carries the recessive allele for grey eyes. He has short blond hair. Buck wears a red T-shirt over a yellow long-sleeved shirt, with khaki green shorts and sandals. He has the same clothing and hair color as Strangetown townie Samuel Riley. Like Jill, Buck has a hidden Popularity aspiration token which can be viewed in SimPE. Other pre-made toddlers and children have this quirk, though these children's aspirations can be changed when they become teens.

Strangely, if Buck's appearance is extracted with SimPE to Body Shop, he will be thin instead of fat. This is also the case with Antonio and Claudio Monty. The reason for this is because he will have the fitness texture for thin Sims when he becomes a teen instead of the one for fat Sims. This will become more apparent when he becomes an adult. This implies that he was originally thin and his fitness level was subsequently modified with a program like SimPE.

The only way for him to have the fitness texture for fat Sims without hacks is by having him workout until he becomes thin, and then have him overeat until he is fat again. This also happens with many other pre-made Sims in The Sims 2. The prima guide suggests that General Buzz should train him on the obstacle course, in which case Buck will be able to become thin.

Life leading up to The Sims 2 (PSP)[]

In The Sims 2 for PlayStation Portable, his father and brothers make an appearance, yet Buck does not. The reason for this is unknown.

Life leading up to The Sims 4[]

An official Maxis recreation of Buck and his family was uploaded to the The Sims 4 Gallery on February 28, 2019, marking the 19th anniversary of The Sims. Buck is friends with everyone in his family and is close to mastering the Mental skill. He carries incomplete homework in his inventory. He will become a teen in 13 days.
