NARRATOR: Somewhere out in space live the Herculoids.

[theme music]

Zok, the laser-ray dragon!

Igoo, the giant rock ape.

Tundro, the tremendous.

Gloop and Gleep, the formless, fearless wonders.

With Zandor, their leader.

[skraaa]

And his wife, Tara and son, Dorno.

They team up to protect their planet from sinister invaders.

All strong! All brave! All heroes!

They are The Herculoids.

A perfect escape.

And now to find and destroy the ones

responsible for my imprisonment.

Zandor and The Herculoids.

It's been a long trip, Zandor.

- Yes, but we're almost home. MEKKANO: Stop!

ZANDOR: It's Mekkano. - So, we meet again, Zandor.

What do you want, Mekkano?

I have come a long way

to pay you and your Herculoids a debt, Zandor.

TARA: Zandor, what are they?

Mekko-trackers. Tundro, get Tara out of here.

Herculoids, spread out.

That takes care of the Mekko-trackers.

But I am still here.

The Herculoids will never stop the Mekko-stroyers.

I see them, Igoo.

Dorno, look out.

They have destroyed my machines.

But I am not through yet.

[whirring]

He's diving straight for us.

[roar]

He's coming in for another try.

[skraaa]

[pew pew]

[tzing tzing]

I will defeat them yet.

Zok took care of his power bore.

Yeah, but look what he's lowering now.

Nothing can stop my electro-smasher.

What happened? It just went out of control and crashed.

There's your answer, Dorno.

[babbling]

There goes Mekkano back to his cell.

Yes, Dorno, The Herculoids put him

right back where he started from.

For good this time, I hope.

[growl]

[skraaa]

[roar]

[swoosh]

[dramatic music]

Now, to see if you are ready.

Excellent. They are strong and thriving.

Now, let us see how they react

to a microscopic splinter of steel.

[crackle]

Success. [cackling]

I have created the perfect warrior microorganisms.

But first, a final test.

And that is to pit them against The Herculoids

in a fight to the finish. [cackling]

[zapping]

[choking]

- Zandor, what is it? - I don't know, Tara.

We're trapped in some kind of force beam.

[pew pew]

[tzing tzing]

[growl]

[skraaa]

[cackling]

Good. I have them all.

And I have reduced them to microscopic size.

Now, to place them in the culture

with my microorganisms.

Welcome, Zandor, to my micro world.

Torrak, why have you brought us here?

TORRAK: Because, Zandor, you and your Herculoids

are to be the first to battle my microorganisms.

And when you have lost, I shall reduce all living things

in the galaxy to microscopic size.

And enslave them with my microorganisms.

Now, let the battle begin.

[cackling]

Herculoids, spread out.

Good going, Gloop. Three out of three.

Yes, but stay alert. Torrak isn't through yet.

You are right, Zandor.

Let's see how long your Herculoids can last

against my microspores. [cackling]

Alright, everyone. Be on your guard.

[hiss]

Zandor, look.

[hiss]

DORNO: It's the microspores.

[hiss]

DORNO: They're all around us.

Zandor, help!

Tara! They've got her.

[growl]

[boom]

Tundro, your energy rocks.

[pew pew]

[plop plop plop]

It's no use. It just absorbs the energy.

[pew pew]

[pew pew]

[pew pew pew]

[boom]

That was close, Tara.

Zok's high intensity rays were too much for it.

[hiss]

[dramatic music]

Oh, no, you don't.

[growl]

[crash]

[boom]

Thanks, Igoo.

[babbling]

[babbling]

[zapping]

Gloop and Gleep are absorbing their energy.

Yes, Dorno.

If they could make connections

the microspores would destroy each other.

[zapping]

[boom]

[boom]

[babbling]

Come on, Herculoids. We're going to get out of here.

Tundro, set up your steam screen.

[whoosh]

[laughing]

My microspores should have finished them by now.

What? They're gone.

They've gotten away, but not for long.

For my terrible micro trackers will hunt them down.

And then destroy them. [cackling]

So far, so good. Come on, this way.

[roar]

[crackle]

[boing]

[tzing tzing]

[roar]

[growl]

That's what I call teamwork.

Right. Now, hurry. We've got to get to the micro transducer.

There it is.

And that button must activate it.

Gloop will lower me to the aperture.

And when I give the signal, Tara

have Tundro shoot his energy rocks at the button.

And, Dorno, you have Zok do the same with his rays.

Between the two of them

they might just be able to switch it on.

Okay, Gloop, let's go.

Now, let's get on to the aperture.

[babbling]

Perfect! Tara, Dorno, open fire.

[pew pew]

[pew pew]

[tzing tzing tzing]

Zandor!

That's right, Torrak, and your plans for conquest have failed.

We shall see, Zandor.

Alright. Stand by. I'm going to teleport you down.

[zapping]

They're safe, Gloop.

[pew pew]

But you're not, Zandor.

[pew pew]

[tzing tzing]

Gloop, jump.

[pew pew pew]

[tzing tzing]

[skraaa]

Zok, drive him off.

[skraaa]

[pew pew pew]

[crackle]

[kaboom]

[crackle]

Look, something's happening to Torrak's ship.

ZANDOR: It's shrinking.

Must be caught in its own micro beam.

[boom]

- It's gone. - And Torrak with it.

I wouldn't be too sure, Dorno.

But there's one thing we do know.

If it weren't for The Herculoids

he very possibly could have succeeded.
