Based on WEP'S previous Voltron Shows, (the original 1984 show and V3D); will it succeed?

I agree. I have a feeling this show will be much better quality than V3D (anything will be better than V3D). The only thing that worries me is the promotional part.

You don't think WEP learned its lesson from NOT promoting the comic?

Honestly, I don't think WEP has the capacity to promote anything. I think they rely on the production company or publisher to do that.

I wasn't bashing... I was noting that fact that WEP consists of only one person at this time. One person alone cannot do the work of an enitre production company.

V3D only won one award as far as I know: a Daytime Emmy for Best Sound Editing.

Did the 1984 series win any awards?

Part of the problem promoting the comic is that WEP really didn't have anything to market it with at the time. The I-MEN were already on shelves, and the Masterpiece was not out before the demise of the comic. Had they packed in a mini version of Issue 1 with the Masterpiece, or had the new show been running, it may have made a difference. Imjage did a decent job promoting it. DD needed to do a much better job to promote the thing.

That said, with the new show, the marketing will help. It's hard to do toys without a show, but doing a show and then releasing toys, comics and more is much easier.
