Cartoon Vault: Cubix

Not long ago I showed a Cartoon from Argentina and mentioned briefly about the cartoon superpowers along with some lesser nations, but what about South Korea? Japan's closest neighbor and a country that can at least compete on Manga but what about cartoons? Well there's a good reason, today is about Cubix.

Connor likes robots and manages to encourage his father to move to the Robot City of the World, Bubble Town. This is where RobixCorp is, an organization who have perfected an Emotional Processing Unit to give robots human like emotions. (I've seen that enough times to know where this is going)
Connor joins a Robot fixing club called the Botties looked after by Professor Nemo's daughter Hela. Nemo is the head of RobixCorp but has been missing after a horrible accident with a potent substance called Solex.
Connor and his crew, which include token female Abby, annoying smart kid Chip & token fat guy Mong (Say what you like about Pokemon X & Y's tag-a-long crew but they have more personality than this lot) they find a robot called Cubix which is deemed unfix-able. He kind of resembles a mash up of thrown away Rubix Cubes, but before they get any further, Dr Wily, I mean Dr K the evil villain turns up and steals everyone's robots but this incident triggers the awakening of Cubix who defeats Dr K and his army of bad robots and the series repeats this formula for 25 more episodes.
If you've seen this show, yes it's a 4Kids property, and yes it's an early CGI, not a terrible CGI, certainly better than Gormiti's CGI attempt. Cubix is pretty harmless, it doesn't exactly evolve beyond it's set formula and the title robot Cubix is endearing enough to not be annoying with it's lack of speech, although credit to the Koreans for ending the show when Cubix got his full voice in the last episode, they saved us from pain. It ran for two years from 2001 and probably has a DVD release, I'd only watch it out of curiosity and a look at the Pokemon voice cast in full outside of anime.
I'm curious to see if South Korea can give me anything else to look at, while this isn't terrible, it's still a surprise from what I thought Korean animation would be like and I'm curious to learn more.
