Production notes
Big Guy was the world's first artificially intelligent robot, created by the government to fight on behalf of the planet, or so we thought... Big Guy is, in fact, just a suit with a man inside it pretending to be Big Guy's mechanic. However, the world's population was not to know Big Guy wasn't a robot because the government couldn't tell society that the technology wasn't yet ready.
Years later, however, Big Guy finds that he has been put into retirement and replaced by a new, young robot called Rusty, who genuinely has Artificial Intelligence, along with the mind and personality of a 10-year-old boy. However, he soon comes unstuck when he's given the task of saving the world from alien invaders and mad robot cults. This proves too difficult for him, and it's now up to Big Guy, who is called out of retirement, to save the day. But now he must show the young robot the ropes.
