The English tune, with a length of over two minutes, was composed by Guido & Maurizio de Angelis, while the lyrics were written by Ted Mather and performed by Rita Irasena and Emilio Aragon.

The series is set on the distant past, and depicts nomadic extraterrestrial humanoids which are heading towards planet Earth on a spaceship resembling a galleon.

Set in the distant past, the plot revolves around a group of nomadic miniature extraterrestrial humanoids known as the Bobobobs, who live in a part of the universe far away from the planet Earth.

One crew of these Bobobobs, led by Bob Wouter, the captain, sets sail in the Bobular Quest, their spaceship, described as a "galleon with a protective dome".

In several countries, Bobobobs merchandise was produced, including tie-in books, and episodes of the series were released in both PAL and NTSC formats of VHS.
