Alright, here are my headcanons.
First off, Astro, Atlas, Cobalt, Uran, and Pluto are robotic pseudo-organisms, which are artificially-made beings that mimic the bodily functions of organic life forms to a near-microscopic level
Atlas: Atlas is a robotic pseudo-organism created by Dr. Tenma and Dr. Yamanoue. He was subjected to cruel, traumatic experiments throughout his development. This caused Atlas to gain a strong, deep-seated hatred toward humanity. As an act of revenge on Tenma, He breaks out of his testing chamber and murders Tobio, Tenma's son. Further in the canon, Tobio (now known as "Astro Boy" or "the Mighty Atom") and Atlas become bitter enemies.
Tobio/Astro: Tobio, as always, is the deceased son of Dr. Tenma. He was brutally murdered by Atlas, and was his first victim. However, his death didn't last forever. By combining Tobio's DNA and Atlas' "genetic" data, Dr. Tenma was able to create a near-perfect pseudo-organic duplicate of Tobio, which also inherited Tobio's past memories and personality traits. Most other parts of his backstory, such as the circus story arc, remain canon. He eventually meets Dr. Oshay, and goes to live with him as a sort of "adopted son". Once Tobio became a hero, many civilians began to call him "Astro Boy" or "the Mighty Atom". Tobio (now called Astro) became a protector because throughout both of his lives, he believed that all lives are worth protecting. He doesn't want anybody to befall the same fate that he did when he was human. He, like all other iterations of Astro, is kind, respectable, and has a strong sense of justice. However, he suffers minor depression, knowing that he will never be human again.
Cobalt: Cobalt was a test version of the pseudo-organic Tobio duplicate; He is also Astro's "older" brother. Much like Astro, Cobalt was created by combining Tobio's DNA with Atlas' genetic data. However, unlike Astro, Cobalt doesn't have any of Tobio's memories. Initially, Cobalt looked very much like Tobio, but thinner, slightly taller, and with more pointed hair. Cobalt, unlike Tobio, was interested in joining the military, and wanted to join it in order to help people. Tenma, after a few months, sent Cobalt to the Ministry of Defense, where he was modified into his current, terrifying visage by Dr. Yamanoue. He eventually meets Astro, and goes to live with him and Dr. Oshay. Much like the original 60's iteration, Cobalt is kind and loyal to everyone around him, including his siblings. However, he isn't as bright as his younger brother. He also tends to be rather gullible, being easily manipulated by criminals into doing illegal activities. This eventually leads to him gaining trust issues.
Uran: Uran is Astro's younger sister. She was created by Dr. Oshay using Astro's cybernetic "genome" as a base. She was then presented to Astro as a gift for his birthday. Uran has rather remarkable abilities, such as indefinite limb rotation, and most impressively, regeneration. She can instantly regrow any limbs or parts that have been severed from her body. If she is cut vertically in half, both halves will regenerate and turn into two separate duplicates of the original.
