"Spare me the theatrics. You made your demands clear. It's a shame my Cyclopian Guards are unable to answer. But then, even if they were, what would you really expect them to say?"
Meta-Cooler in Dragon Ball Z: The Return of Cooler


Cyclopian Guards, known as Robot Soldiers (ロボットへい Robotto Hei)[1] in the Japanese version, are robots that appear in Dragon Ball Z: The Return of Cooler. Cyclopian Guards were created by the Big Gete Star and serve as a part of Cooler's army while attacking New Namek.[2]

Appearance[]

The Cyclopian Guards are extremely large in size (roughly twice that of Piccolo). True to their name, each Cyclopian Guard has a small head with a singular red eye and a heavily armored body somewhat resembling that of final form Frieza and final form Cooler. They have large torsos with elongated shoulder plates, long blaster arms with transforming appendages for gripping and fighting, and feet with large digits for walking and skidding across ground.

Personality[]

"*BEEP, BOOP*"
— Cyclopian Guard quote in Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle

According to Meta-Cooler, the Cyclopian Guards are mute and deaf, meaning trying to reason with them is useless, although he implies that it would still have been useless even if they were not deaf/mute. In the relevant Dokkan Battle story event, Cooler adds that they are incapable of showing mercy and that reasoning with them is impossible. For their Super Attack quote and story dialogue, they are capable of making generic robot noises. In Dragon Ball Heroes, the guards are shown to be able to speak.

Cyclopian Guards are attacking Namekians when the Dragon Team arrive on New Namek. Piccolo, Gohan, and Krillin battle with the guards while Goku picked up his fight with Meta-Cooler. During the battle, Piccolo realizes that the guards are made with incredibly hard metal and instructs Gohan and Krillin to focus all of their energy on their point of attack to deal a critical strike.

Once this is realized, they have no problem easily piercing the armor of the Cyclopian Guards. Because of their sheer numbers, Gohan, Krillin, Master Roshi, Oolong, and Yajirobe are all eventually captured. After being pounded by thousands of bullets, Piccolo eventually uses Hyper Explosive Demon Wave to obliterate all of the remaining guards and heads off to find the others.

Films

The Cyclopian Guards are all very strong, each being able to swat Gohan and Krillin around, as well as put up a decent battle against Piccolo, who had previously fused with Kami. They are able to transform their right arms into Ray Guns, coils, and machine guns. They also have a mechanized release that contains giant nets used for capturing the opposition. All are seen being able to fly. The metal that makes up their bodies is also quite resilient and durable, causing Krillin, Gohan, and Roshi to bruise or comically injure their hands from simply punching them. However, Piccolo is able to destroy them with his Makosen Flash.

Equipment[]
