was developing experimental giant robot warriors to fight the allies during the
Second World War, but before his creations could see action, Allied bombs
destroyed the facility and killed him. A decade later criminals
discovered two of the surviving prototypes, #26 and 27 in the series, and used
the remote controlled robots to commit a number of crimes. Young Shotaro Haneda,
the twelve year old son of Dr.Haneda, did some investigating and discovered that
