Machine Robo: Battle Hackers (マシンロボ ぶっちぎりバトルハッカーズ, Machine Robo: Butchigiri Battlehackers^?) is a Japanese animated television series produced by Ashi Productions. It ran on TV Tokyo from June 3, 1987 through December 30, 1987. It is a loose sequel to Machine Robo: Revenge of Cronos, as the Stōl siblings and Triple Jim aren't in it. The villainous Gurendos' names and appearances are a parody of Japanese juvenile delinquent gangs. Hero R. JeTan has a "collar" reminiscent of a Japanese student's uniform.
