ChunGiant Robots are cool!

Ever since I watched my first episode of Lost In Space, I can remember my awe and fascination with the robot. Even at 4 years old, I thought Will Robinson was the luckiest kid in the world.
That was until I saw Gigantor. He was three stories high, made of steel and had a rocket-powered back pack for flight. Best of all, he was remote controlled. Little Jimmy Sparks had complete control over this gargantuan metal monster. In fact, whoever had the remote was Gigantor's master. I used to imagine having my own Gigantor - having control over that incredible power. I would dream about using my robot to stomp on bullies or any one who crossed me. I know it was extreme but it was fun!
There have been other giant robots since then including, Transformers and The Iron Giant.
Some of these were used for good and some were wickedly evil. That begs the moral question. Just what would you do with a giant robot? Would you try to save the world or would you use it to rob a few hundred banks? Maybe you might like to ride it into space or take over a country. Whatever the fantasy, let’s see if good or evil prevails.
