Story
[edit]In the Sarbylion galaxy, there is an organization named D.I.C.E. (an acronym for DNA Integrated Cybernetic Enterprises) to help those in need. Among them, F-99 is the only unit composed entirely of children. Often being trivialized by their young ages, DICE member use RADOC to summon the Gild suit (Gild jacket) to help them to gain some respect among suspicious locals. When a problem arises, DICE is called to the rescue. With their Dinobreakers which can transform from Vehicle Mode to Dino Mode, the DICE team can always get the job done.
D.I.C.E. is sometimes compared with Thunderbirds, not only because of the rescue theme, but also the GTR catchphrase, which means "Good to Roll" (some prefer it as "got the request").
In the Japanese version of the show, D.I.C.E. stands for "Dinobrakers Integrated Cybernetic Enterprises."
