Plot[]
Taking place in Civic City, boy scientist Buzz Conroy and his father Professor Conroy fight super villains with the aid of a powerful heroic robot named "Frankenstein Jr.", or "Frankie" as Buzz usually calls him. But instead of looking like Frankenstein's monster like the name would suggest, Frankie is more reminiscent of the title character of "Gigantor" and the giant robot of "Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot". Buzz built Frankie, and activated him with an energy ring.
