Robox Background . RoBox is being enviro - friendly hero robo of faced with redemption human . Box is huge and two thousands feet taller than a skyscraper is . He is have rubber arms falling off and blinding evil threats with special lighting eyes for scaring a giant enemy . Biggest recycled rubber boots make a safe protection of cardboard - type body . Because recyclable , is always convenient for the fighting party and also to level evildoer hideouts . He is human flawed robot with human soul and manmade insecurities . Heroic Boxing . The year was 2002 . The aftershocks of 9 - 11 sunk America into a dark slump of fear , anxiety , and financial stress . The entire world was a ball of paranoid nerves . Making matters worse , Dr . Cube ' s Posse was on a winning streak , Kaiju heroes were losing Battels left and right , and Hero T - shirt sales were at an all time low . Just when it seemed that things couldn ' t get any worse , Kung - Fu Chicken Noodle murdered the heroic Club Sandwich at Warsaw Wafu Fun in Brooklyn , NY . America ' s confidence in all that was good and just was lost . In a time when many Americans yearned for safety and security , the Big Battel scorecard failed to provide proof that good could surmount evil . The country was in need of a confidence boost , so the Kaiju Commissioner met with Mr . President about how to handle the situation . Both powerful men agreed that America needed a new Kaiju Hero , and in hopes of boosting national morale , the American public would be called on to lend a hand in the creation of the next great American Hero . News of the heroic savior traveled fast , and the entire country was abuzz with hope and newfound pride . The Kaiju Commissioner threw his heart , money , and public relations savvy into creating the newest meta - Hero . The Commissioner ' s public relations department decided to make the creation of the new Hero the most celebrated event of the year . An endless stream of press , public appearances , parades and old - fashioned rallies swept the country . At 8 p . m . on August 20 , the Commissioner publicly revealed plans for the new robotic hero . The televised event unveiled America ' s next superhero , RoBox , and unleashed the greatest American phenomena since Pac - Man Fever , RoBox Rabies . While the nation applauded the decision to create a new Hero , no one wanted to pay for it . The post 9 - 11 economic climate was horrendous and the budget for the fabrication of America ' s next great Hero was set at $ 337 . 63 , plus whatever Robo Dynamics ' resourceful R & D staff could carry out of the basement of Kaiju Headquarters . It was unclear how Robo Dynamics would be able to craft the greatest American Hero on such a shoestring budget . Still , Robo Dynamics was known for working miracles with pennies . Dr . Nikolai Orekhov , an extremely innovative and resourceful scientist , led the creation of RoBox . The forward - thinking Robo Dynamics technologist had long been a supporter of recycling and turned the daunting budget problem into an opportunity to champion the use of recycled materials . Dr . Nikolai decided on a classic rectangular box design and armed the robo - hero with two versatile appendages that could be fitted with an arsenal of weapons . Not only did the " Slinky Dink " - like arms make young children laugh , but they were also extremely dangerous with an armory of weapons that ranged from titanium razor - sharp claws to smart - missile launchers . The enviro - robo - hero made his glorious Kaiju Big Battel debut at Roxy Rampage NY , defeating the infamous Kung - Fu Chicken Noodle in seconds flat . Backed by Dr . Nikolai , RoBox unleashed a powerful attack and pinned the deadly Soup in under four minutes with an unconventional move that would later be dubbed the Reverse Defragmenter . Unfortunately , RoBox ' s combat capabilities quickly deteriorated after his debut victory over Soup . His cheap parts and labor were a slow poison and eventually disabled the promising hero . Robo Dynamics responded with a series of upgrades and reinstalls . Dr . Nikolai personally logged 1 , 291 hours on various customer service support lines . The effort was barely noticed however - - RoBox was no match for Soup in a rematch Battel at First Fight Out . Losing both arms as well as his head , RoBox was nearly destroyed in just three minutes . America was shocked , " How could the great American Hero be defeated by a Chinese factory worker turned mutant Can of Soup ? " The finger pointing , blaming , and scapegoat slaughter was quick and dirty . No one wanted to claim responsibility for the failure of an American Hero . Eventually the blame was passed onto the recycling plant that provided the raw materials for RoBox . To this day the recycling industry is still recovering from the crippling public backlash . The US Government , the Kaiju Commissioner and the American people were foiled by the fact that RoBox could not withstand the rigors of repeated Battels . Sure , RoBox had a great looking design , a lovable human element , a ton of great press , and fabulous ratings from Neilson , but the hype fell hard when RoBox was put to the test . America was disappointed , and unable to face the facts . The entire country turned its back on its own creation . RoBox was the embarrassing son of America . The pressures of high hopes , overblown hype , and mass - abandonment were almost too much for RoBox to handle . American society ' s inability to be accountable for the shortcomings of its failed made - in - the - USA hero practically destroyed the fragile digi - ego of RoBox . But RoBox was programmed with the " American ends in ' I Can ' " code , and was determined to fight the country ' s collective guilt - trip , shame , and alienation . RoBox vowed to continue fighting evil until he becomes the hero America wanted . Otherwise , like a true hero , RoBox pledged he would die trying .
