At the end of the 1970s, NBC, which was looking for a showpiece content to compete with ABC's "Galactica" TV series in the U.S., decided to make "Buck Rogers" a TV series against the background of ABC discontinuing "Galactica" broadcast despite its high ratings. The special effects were done by David Gerber and Wayne Smith under the direction of D. Trumbull, and the prop design was done by SW production artist Ralph McCulley and others. The SFX for the preceding "Galactica" was also under the direction of D. Trumbull, and the team of John Dykstra, who was already independent, worked together, and prop parts from "Galactica" were appropriated and used as the subject matter.

The story takes place in 2018, after Judgment Day, when "Skynet," ruled by autonomously awakened AIs, launched a nuclear attack on humanity. John Connor, who has become the leader of the Resistance, takes command on the front lines of the battle against the Machine Army, which is further strengthening its equipment to eliminate all humans. In a time loop setting, Marcus Wright works with Kyle Reese, who becomes John Connor's father in the near future. He was once a powerful cyborg created by fusing machines and living organisms as research material for Skynet. The Harvester is a giant mecha that harvests the human survivors alive on the ground. Marcus Wright, having lost the memory of his own creation, is now fighting Kyle Reese and the giant Harvester. The mecha that separates from the Harvester leg and relentlessly pursues it is the Moto Terminator.
