A diaper-wearing toddler with a mohawk named Maxwell "Fantastic Max" Young has adventures in outer space with two of his toys: FX, a pull string alien doll from a planet called Twinkle-Twinkle, and A.B. Sitter, a C-3PO-like android made of blocks.
A.B. is frustrated because Max never listens to him, so he suggests that Max create a new plastic parent -- and he does.
A toy manufacturer named Sticky Wicket can't think of a new idea for a toy, so he steals FX and pretends to have invented him.
Max is bored when he has to spend all day in a day care center, so he takes his baby friends into space.
FX's cord gets pulled out of shape and ruins his voice, so the gang goes back to Twinkle Twinkle in search of his doctor to fix it.
Max takes A.B. and FX to colorless planets (literally) with crayons, but after they meet color lovers Alan and Neil, things get out of hand.
The gang visits an interplanetary circus and discover that the ringmaster had kidnapped the animals and are making them perform against their will.
Max is bored with fairy tales until the gang goes into storybook world. Things are fine until FX's mischievous cousin comes along and makes everyone dance to music--which distracts them from their duties.
Zoe gets plagued with Nasal Bathrobe, the virus from Osirus, on the day of her birthday party. Max and company have to capture the virus or else never go into outer space again.
Zoe grows a giant carrot for a vegetable competition, but the carrot, named Rooty, appears to be alive. He enlists Max's help to save him from a rabbit named Fatso, who wants to eat him.
A pair of astronauts mistake Max for an alien. Now it's up to AB, FX, and even Zoe to save him from the press.
Max's father buys Max a toy dragon, which Max names Stitches, and FX brings him to life. The gang take Stitches through time via the rocket, but Stitches is a baby at heart, which gets him into trouble.
FX is deeply homesick so he ponders going back home to Twinkle Twinkle, but Max is reluctant to let him go.
It's Halloween, and Max is tired of staying home and missing out on the fun. So FX's trouble-making cousin XS takes the trio to Terrorforma, the spookiest place in the universe.
Ben videotapes Max's latest trip into space, and he blackmails Max into letting him come along on the next voyage in exchange for his silence.
Max's latest babysitter turns out to be Hoo Jipson, a famous outer space rodeo star.
Christopher the Plumber comes and dismantles A.B., taking everything but his head, and it's up to Max and FX to track him down and recover the parts.
While visiting Buckyland theme park, Max and company encounter a friendly family of rats who are desperate for food, and they in turn do what they can to help.
Max attends a film festival with himself as the main attraction.
The gang goes after the tooth fairy after s/he takes Max's tooth from under his pillow and doesn't leave him any money.
Max's constant crank telephone calls result in a long bill, and he has to work at an interplanetary phone company to pay it off.
After an accident, A.B.'s foot squeaks, so the gang travels to Ireland -- otherwise known as ""Leprechaun Land"" -- to find a good cobbler. The cobbler they find is a leprechaun named Blarney Fife, who is trying to keep the map to Leprechaun Land's pot of gold from a greedy sneak named Pete O'Moss.
