What happens

Doraemon: Nobita and the Steel Troops (ドラえもん のび太と鉄人兵団, Doraemon Nobita to Tetsujin Heidan) is a 1986 Japanese animated science fiction action-adventure film based on the seventh volume of the same name of the Doraemon Long Stories series. The original plot was written by Fujiko Fujio. Alternate titles include The Platoon of Iron Men, or The Robot Army. The film pays homage to many anime series featuring giant robots or "mecha", most notably Gundam and Mazinger. It is the seventh Doraemon film. In 2011, the film was remade as Doraemon: Nobita and the New Steel Troops—Winged Angels. The film is partly based on the 1980 chapter "Handmade Robot Rampage". An English dub was produced and released exclusively in Malaysia by Speedy Video as Doraemon - Nobita Tetsujinheiden. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
