CyberoidsHerculesHercules is one of United FOX's top-of-the-line TitanWorker series. The Hercules is a fully functional worker robot resembling a human in every way. It allows the pilot to control it as if the pilot is controlling him or herself. Thus, the Hercules became a high-priced, distinct model purchased for precision work on vessels.
CyclopsWith the success of the Hercules, the British company, United FOX, decided that it would be wise to create a combat version for the military. However, the combat version never caught on. Seven prototypes were made and demonstrated. The performance was excellent but the government simply did not have the budget to spend on purchasing exotic CombatTitan which could not deliver the fire power offered by other, much more crude, models. Soon after, the production was discontinued. 
Basically, the Cyclops is exactly the same as the Hercules except a faster and newer engine is installed to allow agility and other features required in combat. The battery capacity has also been increased to allow longer use. New synthetic skin have been created to absorb solar energy for the Cyclop to stay self-reliant on missions. Unfortunately, the solar cells provide lesser protection to penetration. Other than that, BackPak, FlightPak, and other combat equipments have been created to outfit the Titan. The BackPak (BP-004) module is capable of carrying a cannon pod, a combat staff, a long-range communication module (UF-CM-63), and a FlightPak (FP-011). The communication module has an effective range of 273 kilometers. The Tri-pin Projectile Cannon Pod, TP-PCP-013, is United FOX's latest invention in its field. Though it looks like a pistol, it could actually be used as a multi-burst machine gun. The cannon pod utilizes United FOX's newest technology, the triangular shaped bullet with a tip in the front. It allows maximum penetration and still delivers the fire power after exploding. The new bullet is small, doubling the capacity of the pod. Bullet is loaded directly into the gun. Thirty bursts per load. Afterward, the pod must be returned to the BackPak, which carries an additional 180 bullets, for reloading.  The Multi-Purpose Combat Staff, MCE-027, is specifically designed for Cyclops. It is United FOX's way of showing the world the potential of the Cyclops. During the demonstrations, the staff is used to compare the Cyclops' agility to humans. At first, the staff appears to be half the length of a regular staff and almost unusable. But the staff is more than meets the eyes. With a electronic signal, the cylinders on either side of the grip extends to create a full-length staff. The staff is best used by pilots whom are skilled at Asian fighting techniques. Send another electronic signal, and two elongated cones pop out from both sides of the cylinder. A pilot could use these along with the staff for more devastating effect. These cones are high-power explosive rockets that may be launched from the staff. The rockets will not be activated until launched, thus the pilot can be sure that it will not explode in hand-to-hand combat. As with the cannon pod, reload must be done in the BackPak. Ten additional rockets may be stashed in the BackPak for reload. Additional equipment are also available from United FOX. Custom orders are accepted.
