Machine Robo

Buggy Robo is a sometimes heroic mechanoid of the Battle Clan who turns into a dube buggy. Initially a bandit working for Bug Newman, later became an ally in the war against the Gandora. Because of his mechanoid nature, Battle Robo does not need to breath oxygen and is resistant to extreme cold, but is vulnerable to intense magnetic fields. His weapon of choice is his Ionoid Supersonic Cannon.

Reception

Fifteen years before the Gandora invasion of Cronos Battle Robo, Buggy Robo, Rury and Supercar Robo were students at a martial arts Dojo run by Rury's father when it was visited by Master Kirai Stol. These events are recalled by Rury in Machine Robo: Revenge of Cronos episode 13, "Jet! Defeat the Double Death Blade!".[1]
