We've got a bunch of new images from Adult Swim's upcoming Titan Maximum, a new stop-motion-animated series from the Robot Chicken guys, who take on Voltron and similar beloved 1980s giant-robot anime shows.

The new show, arriving on the cable network in the fall, is set a hundred years in the future, when Saturn's moon Titan is defended by Titan Force Five, an elite squadron of young, brash pilots whose spaceships combine to form the giant robot Titan Maximum.

Here's how the network describes the series:

As the series opens, the team has been disbanded due to budget cuts, but must hastily reassemble when a former team member turns rogue and tries to conquer the solar system with an assault of giant monsters. Now, the fate of humanity rests in the hands of a team of dysfunctional misfits commanding a rustbucket robot.

Titan Maximum is created by Robot Chicken producer/co-head writer/director Tom Root and executive producer/co-creator/writer/director Matthew Senreich, and executive producer/co-creator/writer/director Seth Green will voice the show's villain. All three will executive-produce the new series. Created in conjunction with ShadowMachine Films' Alex Bulkley and Corey Campodonico, the series also features the voice acting of Breckin Meyer, Rachael Leigh Cook, Dan Milano and Eden Espinosa.

Titan Maximum premieres Sept. 27 at 11:30 p.m. ET/PT on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.
