      Storyline

      Did you know

      • Trivia
        The series drew a lawsuit from the toy company, Tonka, on the allegation of basing the cartoon on their GoBots franchise, which was adapted from Bandai's Machine Robo line. Although that lawsuit proved to be baseless, the legal complications led to Mighty Orbots being canceled after one season.
      • Quotes
        • Oh No: Oh, no! We're being pulled into the sun!
        • Narrator: You said it, Oh No, and unless Mighty Orbots comes up with something fast, there'll be a hot time in the ol' star cluster tonight!
