History[]

The Iron Giant was created by an advanced civilization on a distant world. He went out into space, and eventually crash-landed in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Maine in the year 1957. It is not known what his purpose was, or why he went (or was sent) out into space. However, what is known is that he is a giant, walking weapons system.

During his crash-landing, the Giant suffered a blow to the head, which dented it and apparently reset his programming, leaving him with a childlike understanding. He wandered the forests of Maine, looking for sustenance (metal, in his case), and eventually was discovered by a young boy named Hogarth Hughes.

At first, Hogarth kept the Giant hidden from governmental authorities, with the help of junkman Dean McCoppin. Hogarth began educating the Giant, teaching him how to talk, and about morality. Eventually, when the Giant saw a toy gun being fired at him, he reacted by firing back, showing Hogarth and Dean that his original purpose was as a weapon.

Eventually, the presence of the Giant was discovered by the U.S. Government, which sent military assets to destroy him. The Giant reacted defensively, and showed his clear superiority to everything in the human’s arsenal, with the possible exception of a nuclear bomb. Hogarth appealed to the Giant’s sense of morality, and ended the confrontation.

However, an ICBM was fired at the Giant’s location, which was in the middle of the town of Rockwell, Maine. To save the lives of all the humans, the Giant flew into space and collided with the missile, detonating it, and saving the town. Afterwards, it was discovered that, though damaged, the Giant had survived the nuclear blast and was reassembling himself.

Weapons and Equipment[]

The Iron Giant is equipped with six different kinds of armament that are far superior to any human weapons. The armaments themselves use an unknown type of energy that seems to enable virtually limitless ammunition.

Laser Eyes - The Iron Giant can shoot lasers out of his eyes that effortlessly blast through metal.
Arm Cannon - The Iron Giant's right arm can retract to reveal a massive cannon that shoots explosive green energy.
Tri-Scorpion Cannons - Three scorpion-like tails appear out of the Iron Giant's back, and target enemies with a spotlight to shoot green energy at them.
Energy Claw - The Iron Giant's left arm can retract to reveal a second cannon, this one with a claw. It shoots a ball of energy that vaporizes targets on contact.
Laser Spin Gun - A spinning disc on the Iron Giant's rite arm that, when pinched with two needles, shoots a barrage of lasers.
Energy Cannon - The most powerful weapon in the Iron Giant's arsenal. A chest-cannon that shoots a massive ball of energy that explodes in contact, resulting in effects similar to those of a nuclear bomb.

Fallout 4[]

3d artist Matthew Swanton has created a mod for the video game, Fallout 4, which replaces the robot Liberty Prime with the Iron Giant. However, the Iron Giant is only there in appearance, and does not have access to any weapons that Liberty Prime doesn’t. He also acts the same as Liberty Prime.
