Humba Wumba appears in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''. Due to the lack of a need for transformations, her new role is selling pre-made vehicle blueprints and vehicle parts to Banjo. She also frequently appears in the different worlds to give challenges to Banjo. In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts|Nuts & Bolts]]'', she appears to be the sex appeal of the game. She wears yellow tight shorts with a small tied up top to cover herself, and it looks a lot like Mrs. Parker's from the movie Friday. She appears in [[Nutty Acres]], [[LOGBOX 720]], and [[Terrarium of Terror]]. | Humba Wumba appears in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]''.

*Her appearance changed drastically between ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts|Nuts & Bolts]]'', more so than any other character. Apparently, Rare decided to make Humba Wumba seem much less like the stereotypical Indian and more like a modern [[wikipedia:Native Americans in the United States|Native American]].
