Before the plan can be executed, however, an attack by the Glorft forces the human resistance to send Megas back in time before proper preparations are made, but the timedrive is accidentally damaged in the attack and, as a result, sends the now-crippled Megas (its head was blown off in the attack) all the way back to the 1930s. Megas languishes in a New Jersey
junkyard until it ends up in the hands of two slackers, Coop and Jamie, around the year 2000. Coop turns Megas into a hot rod project by repainting it with a new, flaming paint job, replacing its head with a classic muscle car and naming it XLR, for eXtra Large Robot.
Kiva goes back in time to retrieve Megas, and when she finds she is unable to pilot it because of Coop's modifications, she grudgingly decides to train Coop how to pilot Megas, who is now the only person who can pilot it. However, the Glorft have followed her through time and, much to Kiva's chagrin, it is now up to Coop to defend Earth from the Glorft and other various threats to the Earth; if he doesn't accidentally end up destroying it first that is.

Synopsis
In the distant future, Earth is fighting a losing war with an alien race known as the Glorft. In order to save the planet, the human resistance steals a prototype giant robot from the Glorft and modifies it, renaming it Megas (Mechanized Earth Guard Attack System). The idea is to use a time-traveling device called a timedrive to send Megas and its pilot, Kiva, back in time to the Battle of the Last Stand, which was the last major offensive fought by humanity against the Glorft. Humanity lost that battle, but the members of the resistance, particularly Kiva, believe that Megas can tip the scales and hand the Glorft a decisive defeat.Before the plan can be executed, however, an attack by the Glorft forces the human resistance to send Megas back in time before proper preparations are made, but the timedrive is accidentally damaged in the attack and, as a result, sends the now-crippled Megas (its head was blown off in the attack) all the way back to the 1930s. Megas languishes in a New Jersey
