The android boy, modeled after Tobio Tenma (known as Astor Boynton III in the black-and-white American version), was created by his father, who was the head of the Institute of Science in the year 2000. This remarkable creation not only boasts the strength equivalent to 100,000 horsepower—later upgraded to 1,000,000—but also embodies the gentle and kind nature of a child. He possesses what are famously known as his "seven amazing powers": the ability to fly using jet propulsion, fluency in multiple languages, advanced analytical capabilities, eyes that function as headlights, super-sensitive hearing, concealed weapons within his back, and an inherent sense to distinguish between good and evil individuals. Moreover, he is equipped with an integrated Geiger counter and a shortwave communication system.
