Plot
Philip Lowel, after stopping a local crime, is invited into Lenny Jon's laboratory where he introduces three new robots known as the Dronemen. Unbeknownst to them, a disguised soldier sent by Vel becomes aware of the Dronemen and reports it to Vel and Ultio. Ultio strategizes a plan to steal the Dronemen and use them to destroy Philip. At night, groups of Vel's soldiers posing as laboratory staff snuck into the lab and managed to steal the three capsules containing the Dronemen. Philip, as Robotman, attempts to stop the soldiers from escaping, but fails.

Vel sees the arrival of the Dronemen capsules and immediately orders to set the robot's programming to serve him only. Meanwhile, Philip and his crew discovered the disguised soldiers via security footage, leading Philip to believe that Vel has returned. A week later, Lenny sets up a sting operation to find Vel's whereabouts. During the search, the members of the operation were attacked by the Dronemen, but not before Philip intervenes. Philip fights the Dronemen but is unable to defeat them all. The Dronemen surround Philip in order to finish him off, but Philip manages to escape using a distraction, but not before the Dronemen descend into a nearby cave.

Philip heads back to Lenny's lab and tells him about the Dronemen and the cave, leaving Lenny to suspect that Vel and Ultio had gone undercover. Meanwhile, when Ultio asked what he'll do with the Dronemen after Philip is defeated, Vel plans to dismantle the Dronemen, saying that they were only programmed to defeat Philip and nothing else. Unbeknownst to Vel and Ultio, Kester overhears their conversation and tells it to Hideki and Benson. In fear of being destroyed, they had unknowingly gain their independence and decide to turn against Vel and search for shelter before being attacked by Vel's soldiers. Philip arrives in time to save them and takes them to Lenny's lab, where Benson offers their help. Despite some doubts from Lenny, Judith, and Ashley, they decided to upgrade their bodies and remove Vel's programming while Philip gets a new body with enhanced abilities.

Now fully prepared, Philip and the Dronemen soon heads into Vel's hideout and battle him and Vel to prevent their army from attacking the city. Vel, using his enhanced powers, manages to subdue Philip and prepares to kill him when Lenny and his crew creates a diversion by killing Vel's army using remote explosives. Distracted, Philip uses it as an advantage and manages to subdue him. Ultio prepares to kill the Dronemen but ends up exploding due to his armor malfunctioning. With only Vel left, Philip and the dronemen use their beam attacks, disintegrating him before they escape the hideout.

Philip and his crew celebrate at the beach for their second victory, though Philip assures them that Vel and Ultio are gone for good. He soon tells the Dronemen that they're part of the family now, as long as they use their powers for good. In a mid-credits scene, an excavator approaches his boss and shows him a wheelbarrow filled with the remains of Vel and Ultio's equipment. He's then told to destroy them with the shredder as the excavator soon brings the wheelbarrow to a nearby shredder.
