Dwayne's Wednesday Robot Romper Room


Jet Jaguar (aka  Jetto Jagā): In 1973's Godzilla vs. Megalon some Atlantean knock-offs called Seatopians get upset because the world has been testing nukes and destroying their underwater civilization. You cannot really blame the surface-dwellers because they did not know there was a race of aquatic humans hiding under the ocean. Anyhow, Seatopia decides to release their monster/god Megalon to deal with the world, but first they have to take out Godzilla. Therefore, they hijack a robot named Jet Jaguar to help give them edge over G. Ah, but Jet Jaguar's creator, Goro Ibuki regains control of the robot from a Seatopian who looks like a Japanese Oscar Wilde. Goro then instructs Jet Jaguar to help Godzilla. Jet Jaguar now becomes self-aware and then does the most remarkable thing ever… he programs himself larger. After a little Megalon smack-down, Jet Jaguar decides he preferred being a small mindless slave to Goro so he reprograms himself smaller and begins following the orders of his master.
