Tim Dean was the creator of Super Alien Hero Buddies, a children's TV show. While his show was clearly inspired by Ben's aliens, Tim denies any such involvement and claims his show is purely original. It was revealed that he has always been a fan of Kangaroo Kommando, even though he had become enemies with him due to Dean's show becoming more popular than Kangaroo Kommando. He was kidnapped by Kane North and was saved by Ben as Wildvine when he was about to be dropped into a cauldron of boiling chemicals.
