Tetsuwan Tantei Robotack is the last installment on Toei's Metal Hero franchise. It aired betwen March 8, 1998 and January 24, 1999.

The plot follow the adventures of Robotack, a detective robot dog send to earth to find the treasure of his home land "Harappa Land": The Landtool. He later joins a kid called Kakeru and joins the boy's uncle, Kaoru Sugi, in his Private Investigation business.

Just like the previous series, B-Robo Kabutack, Robotack had never seen a DVD except for the Direct-To-Video Crossover movie with Kabutack. Unlike the Kabutack movie, the Robotack movie hasn't been subbed in english by any fansub group. However, it's easy to find the RAW on Torrent sites. The Soundtrack of the Show has been released on CD too.

The show did get a VHS release. However, like Kabutack, no rip of those had been uploaded on the internet, and the tapes are very hard to come by. As a result, episodes of the show are very sought after among Tokusatsu fans and collectors.

Some pictures of the show have surfaced.
