Do you daydream? Do you imagine yourself flying starships, fighting dragons, saving the world from giant robot invasions?
Meet Timothy James, a perfectly normal six-year-old. Like most boys his age, Timothy spends the majority of his free time pretending to be a member of Dash Lightrider’s Zoom Patrol or imagining he’s traveled back in time to join Skilrath the Celt on an adventure in the Valley of Doom.
One day, his father brings home a new beach towel for Timothy from the latest in a series of never ending business trips. While he never has time to spend with his son, Jim James feels he’s making up for it by bringing home presents. This latest one is from Maui and has a cornucopia of bright colors splashed all over it.
It certainly isn’t “cool” like the rocket he brought him from Florida or the Robowarrior he brought home from LA.
However, Timothy soon discovers this isn’t any ordinary beach towel. Not only is it alive, it comes complete with it’s own hyperdrive!
Within minutes, Timothy and the Towel are rocketing through the sky heading for... PLANET ZOOM!
Join Timothy and his Transgalactic Towel as they adventure in deep space, back through time, to other dimensions and beyond!
