Mighty OrbotsMighty Orbots is the title character of the cartoon series of the same name that aired on Saturday mornings in the United States. Series summary Earth, now part of an interplanetary alliance, is under attack from Umbra, a gigantic bio-computer that lives inside the giant Shadow Star. Young genius Rob Simmons creates 5 robots with artificial intelligence to serve as the alliance's main defense. These five "orbots" each have distinct personalities and abilities. They can also join together to form Mighty Orbots, a giant robot that amplifies the abilities of each component. Series history Mighty Orbots was produced in the United States, as opposed to being a translated import from Japan, as were so many other shows of its kind. The show lasted only a single season. The Orbots - Tor provided the strength of the group, and served as Mighty Orbots' body. Tor's personality resembled a kind boxer -- no genius, but dependable and trustworthy. (Tor's head would retract inside his body to make room for Mighty Orbots' head.)
- Bort was the shape-changer of the team, and served as one of Mighty Orbots' legs. Bort stammered quite a bit, and came across rather nervous, but was the most versatile of the group.
- Bo was the weather manipulating Orbot, and served as one of Mighty Orbots' arms. Bo could appear insensitive and overconfident at times, but had the personality of a strong, reliable female. Bo was one of 3 female Orbots.
- Boo was the Orbot who could distort perception, and served as the other arm of Mighty Orbots. Boo was the shy ingenue of the team, although she wasn't shy in combat. Boo was another female Orbot.
- Crunch was the "glutton" of the team, and served as the other leg of Mighty Orbots, as well as the giant robot's primary energy source. Crunch could eat anything and everything, any time and all the time.
- Ono (or "Oh No") was the "mother hen" for the rest of the Orbots, and served as co-pilot and "key" for Mighty Orbots. Ono appeared to be a little girl, but she was second in command after the Orbots Commander, and everybody knew it.
- Orbots Commander was the only human of the team. Rob Simmons, the Orbots' creator, was secretly the Orbots Commander. Rob used a device to change his standard lab smock & clothes into the uniform and helmet of the commander.
