Story
The Herculoids are the giant pets of the space barbarian family Zandor, Tara and their son Dorno. Laser dragon Zok, space rhinoceros Tundro, rock ape Igoo and the shape-shifting Gloop and his son Gleep help their masters in their fight to keep their planet safe from invading robots, mad scientists and mutants of all sorts. Zandor, Tara and Dorno have many ennemies from space: the Faceless People, the Destroyer Ants, the Raider Apes, the Mutoids, the Arnoids, the Zorbots, the Mekkano mechanical men and the Ogs, a strange form of vegetable life.
