In sept previews mag there is a picture of the voltron toy on page 435. stating it is due to ship in december and will be 149.99

It was post-poned several times but I'm looking forward to having it.

You can find it for $127.49 at Alter Ego Comics

Hmm. With shipping it's 135 and a chunk of change. Same price it would be from my comic shop. I'll just order it through them and not worry about shipping.

Hey guys,

I'm new to the boards, but I'm a huge Voltron fan! Like the rest of you, I've been waiting patiently for the DVD set to come out, but have been tiding myself over with the comics.

Since this is the official site for Voltron, thought I would let you guys know of a site I've found that has a good review of the toy as well as some AWESOME pictures aslong with some of mine at the bottom:

I also started to add some little touches to mine and the results are .


Here is a pic of my Yellow Lion with the added touches.

Thanks for the link. Some great pics there. Love the ones of Voltron holding the Spinning Laserblade and the Blazing Sword.

Very nice shots! Could you go more into detail as to what you did paint wise on each lion? I'm thinking of doing the same for my show piece.

The Board Princess bids you welcome to the Kingdom, SDFcommander! And thank you for the wonderful link! I must admit...after comparing the pictures to my Voltron Diecast model from the 80's...I think this one seems pretty sweet looking!

Thank you for the information! And because of your kindness... my most trusted Black Lion Knight, KiethBlackLion (KBL for short) will make sure you have lush accomidations here in the Castle. KBL is our resident Parody Master, and on the side, he keeps track of the Guests in the Castle. Wouldn't want to lose anyone. Without a map... a person can get lost! :wink:

Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the Madness.

Wow, nice review! Thanks for sharing the link, SDFcommander, and welcome in.

I wish I had known www.scifigenre.com was selling them, and for less than $149.99 - I just found out that one of my very good friends who lives in North Carolina is the customer service person for this site!

(If anyone does buy from scifigenre.com, say hi to Janelle for me!)

Many of us get lost even with a map. Allow me to introduce myself, I am the Official Voltron Board's one and only King of Voltron Parody. A title given to me by the members of the Official Voltron Board. My screen name is KiethBlackLion (yes, 'Keith' was spelled incorrectly on purpose) but most on this board simply refer to me as KBL.

Anyway, welcome to the boards, SDFcommander. *checks his log book* The new wing still isn't completed yet. *goes and bops the construction foreman on the head with a rolled up newspaper* In the meantime, we can give you a room on the 10th floor, east wing, third door on the left. We do not have many regulations here, only that you keep things quiet after 10pm, no smoking in the building, no playing loud musical instruments outside the auditorium, no meth labs in your living room and please, whatever you do, please do not try to cook in your shower. The plumbers REALLY hate that and charge us double for their services. Other than that, please feel right at home.

Oh yeah, I should warn you, we have some very strange characters living here. You'll meet most of them in the elevators (shameless plug for my Adventures of Elevator Lance thread in the Lion Voltron forum) and watch out for Mistress Allura and her power whip (shameless plug for my Ultimate Voltron Parody, Lionballs, which is available on my website http://www.geocities.com/kiethblacklion and in the Lion Voltron forum). Welcome and please enjoy your stay.

Hey all, thanks for the warm welcome

I got sick so I was not able to do any work on my MPC Voltron, but I will keep you posted with my progress.

If you did not get this thing, get it! Hopefully Toynami will start it's work on Vehicle Force Voltron.

I also hope it would be in scale with Lion Force Voltron. Does anyone know if the old Voltron 1 and Voltron 3 were in scale? From what I remembered when they teamed up in that Voltron movie, they were about the same size.

Also, who would love to have a booster pack for the MPC Voltron with all the weapons for the lion? Wouldn't that be cool. I guess it's time to e-mail Toynami.

In the mean time, BRING ON THOSE DVDS!

Do we have any Aussie fans here who got the Madman DVD set? Is it remastered? Thanks.

I'm an Aussie and I have the Madman DVD sets. Hell, I got to do some work on Vehicle Voltron Collections 1-3! :twisted:

Unfortunately, the Aussie DVDs aren't remastered.

Oh geez, don't get him started... :roll:

Too late! :twisted:

I'm in the US...but I have the Aussie DVDs. Not remastered...far as I can tell. But there is an 'extra line' in "The Stolen Lion" ep...

Its after Prince Bokar steals the Princess away in her Blue Lion and the team gives chase after her. Here are the lines:

Keith: Well…we’ve got him surrounded. Now, let’s stop him!!

Lance: Keith… I’m right on the target! (Chasing Blue Lion with Bokar holding Allura prisoner)

Keith: [b:55a5293882](extra line not heard in Voltron)[/b:55a5293882] We can’t blast him with the Princess inside! We can’t!!!

Lance: He’s not giving us a whole lot of choices.


Rather interesting... I think. I've played my VHS recording of that ep from CN...and from 20 years ago when I taped it off of WPIX when it aired... and neither time do you have that line in that ep.
