I just watched the Voltron series on YouTube and remembered what a great anime it was.

Anyhow, I was thinking that the 5 lions would look more like lions if they had "manes." Princess' lion can have no mane, since lionesses do not have manes.

Anyhow, the manes for the 4 Voltron lions can be spikes or blades. Each lion can have one spike or blade on the top of its head sort of like a mow hawk. One blade will be in the shape of one backward-curved blade for the yellow lion, 3 spikes in a row for the red lion, one triangular-shaped blade for the green lion, and one forward-curved blade for the black lion.

The spikes or blades would be low in height so the lions don't look ridiculous. Maybe each lion can have a few smaller spikes or blades around their necks, one smaller spikes/blades on each cheek, and very small spikes/blades at the chin (like 4 in a row).

What do you people think? Is one spike/blade on the head enough or add more or leave the lions alone?

If you're gonna do the mane thing, then only the Black Lion should have a mane. This would be more representative of a pride of lions.

I'm against altering them much as it is, as you'll find most people here will be. We like our Voltron as he is. =)

Heh heh. If the lions had manes, then Voltron's head would resemble Vincent from the '80s show Beauty and the Beast... and he'd have hairy hands and feet. D'oh!

Leave them alone, manes would totally NOT go with Voltron.
