Playmates Toys To Release Classic Voltron

Pak Hanu

Bigbadtoystore has updated with official pre-orders for a new Classic Voltron release by Playmates Toys.  For those who are unaware these lions are based on the original Voltron: Defender of the Universe series. The first season of the series ran from September 10, 1984 to November 27, 1984, being adapted entirely from Beast King GoLion. However, due to overwhelming popularity of the Lion Force Voltron a second season was commissioned, and aired the following year from October 21, 1985 to November 18, 1985. Yet, the original lions would return 13 years later in Voltron: The Third Dimension, which served as a direct sequel to…

Review: Legendary Voltron Week Day Six- Voltron

Pak Hanu

Today is the final day for Legendary Voltron Week on my channel as we look at the full combination of Voltron. Today we will be looking at the combined form of Voltron.  The individual lions may be limited in their functionality on their own, but they work well together when they fully form Voltron.  Most of the articulation utilizes the articulation of the lions, which works decently for the main form of Voltron.  While I am okay with the articulation on the figure mostly, however I am just glad a Voltron…

Hello Hero Club, this is Darkon633 and I am back with another toy review.  This week we will be looking at the Deluxe Playmates Toys Voltron during Legendary Voltron Week.

Voltron Week – Day 6: Voltron Legendary Defender Deluxe Voltron Review

Billy "TaJa" Doyle

For Day 6, we assemble our Legendary Lions to form Voltron, Defender of the Universe! This new incarnation is a hefty 16″ inches tall and now activates further sounds within the Black Lion featuring dialog between our pilots, the other paladins besides Shiro. However, the Deluxe Voltron does have significant flaws! There is quality issues among the toys where Blue’s and/or Yellow’s front legs cannot endure the weight of the combination as the heels; it is a rare occurrence that is now being noticed further by the fandom too. Another…

Voltron Week – Day 5: Voltron Legendary Defender Black Lion Review

Billy "TaJa" Doyle

For the fifth day in Voltron Week one should expect it to be the Legendary Black Lion, which completes the team of lions! This new Black Lion for Legendary Defender features lights and sounds, a new gimmick for practically any Voltron thus far. However, it is not a new gimmick seen with toys, so the assumption that sounds/ voice clips featuring dialog from the show not be accurate is obviously there. Especially if one either uses the “Try Me” function before purchasing and opening the toy! Yet, for its overall…

Voltron Week – Day 4: Voltron Legendary Defender Red Lion Review

Billy "TaJa" Doyle

The fourth day features the final limb of Voltron, the Red Lion who is currently piloted by Keith. Now, for original fans of the series this is one of those crazy changes that at least makes sense since back in the day he always wore RED! The design is the same as Green, but the minor changes made for Red are still wonderful. Hell it features my favorite signature cannon via design.
