We investigate under which conditions an equivariant fiber bundle whose base, total space and fiber are GKM manifolds induces a fibration or fiber bundle of the corresponding GKM graphs. In particular, we give several counterexamples. Concerning the converse direction, i. e. , the realization problem for fiber bundles of GKM graphs, we restrict to the setting of fiberwise signed GKM fiber bundles over n-gons whose fiber is the GKM graph of a full flag manifold. While it was known that any such bundle is realizable for a CP¹-fiber, we observe that new phenomena occur in higher dimensions where realizability depends on the twist automorphism of the GKM fiber bundle. We classify possible twist isomorphsims and show that realizability can be decided in terms of our classification.
