Nanomech

Nanomech is the Codon Stream's DNA sample of a Nanochip.

Kevin describes Nanomech as "not like anything Ben has turned into before” because Nanomech is part human, part drone and thus makes him a hive mind-based organism (so he is a Human/Nanochip hybrid).

Appearance
Nanomech is about an inch tall at full size. He has gray skin with a green circuit like design on it. Nanomech possesses green wings and as well as one large, green cyclopean-eye. He is composed of carbon/silicon-based mechanical body and has triangular feet. He also wears the Omnitrix/Ultimatrix symbol on his chest.

From a normal sized perspective, when Nanomech speaks, he has a squeaky little voice, but from anything of his size's perspective, his voice is very deep.

 * Nanomech is currently Ben's smallest alien.
 * Nanomech is Ben's second new alien to first appear in a live-action movie (the first being Eon) and the first new alien to be unlocked in a live-action movie to be used in the animated series, though Ben never turned into Eon in the series.
 * During the Birthday Bash in Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall, players could get a Nanomech helmet that looked like his live action movie version. But after Ben 10: Ultimate Alien premiered, it changed to match the cartoon version. This item has been re-released as a code item (ironically the code was given out the same episode Nanomech first appeared in the cartoon).
 * Nanomech is similar to Chromastone as he has lines all over the body, one eye, a thick neck, a dark color and thin arms and legs. He can also project beams like Chromastone.
 * In Video Games, Kevin had to shoot Nanomech through a straw even though Nanomech could fly over.
 * Kevin states he can't take Nanomech seriously because of his voice.
 * In Ultimate Aggregor, Nanomech used the quote "fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee".
