Meet the T-Rex Brothers
The story takes place in a world where dinosaurs act like people. The five T-Rex brothers are Bernie (blue), Bruno (pink), Bubba (green), Buck (yellow), and Bugsy (purple). They were all born with special powers. These powers help them fight crime.
Each brother's power is linked to a part of their body:
- Bernie uses his strong legs.
- Bruno has powerful arms.
- Bubba can use his tail.
- Buck has a mighty mouth and teeth.
- Bugsy has special eyes that can move things with his mind.
During the day, they are a singing group. They perform at the Dragon Company in Rep City. But when crime strikes, they hop into their special car, the Rexmobile. They battle "Big Boss" Graves, the main criminal in Rep City. His evil group is called The Corporation. It includes bad guys like Little Boss, Adder, Madder, Shooter, Axe, and the Doctor. The brothers' younger sister, Ginger, also sings with them. She doesn't know about their secret crime-fighting lives.
Some of the voices for the T-Rexes sound like famous old-time celebrities. These include Jack Benny, Art Carney, Bing Crosby, Humphrey Bogart, and Jimmy Durante.
