Classic Voltron Lions
Photo-A-Day #4665

Playmates Toys sent me a partial selection of the new Voltron Classic Lions figures for free to check out and review. Opinions are my own.

I was asked if I’d like to receive a partial sample of the new Voltron Classic ’84 Legendary Lion Collection. I figure, a partial sample is better than no sample so I agreed. I have been watching the new Voltron: Legendary Defender and the Voltron ’84 shows on Netflix and I am enjoying them very much. I had heard that there would be some Classic style Voltron Lions being produced and I am really impressed.

Here is some official information on the Classic Legendary Lions figures.

  • Combine all five Classic Legendary Lions to form a fully-articulated 16″ Classic Voltron figure with a chest that lights up and unlock over 60 sounds from the original 1984 show!
  • Each lion is fully articulated, with the Blue, Red, Green, and Yellow Lions including jaw blades and projectile firing battle accessories. Also, the Red Lion comes with Voltron’s sword and the Green Lion comes with Voltron’s shield.
  • The Classic Legendary Black Lion has electronic lights and features over a dozen phrases and sound effects from the original 1984 show. Unlock the Black Lion’s 60+ sounds by assembling the 16″ Classic Voltron figure.
  • The Black Lion transforms into the head and body of Voltron, while the four other Classic Legendary Lions transform and combine to form Voltron’s arms and legs.
  • Recommended Age: 4+
  • MSRP:$17.99 each for the Blue, Green, Red and Yellow Classic Legendary Lions

Find Voltron at San Diego Comic-Con

Voltron at SDCC

Each year I wish that I could be at San Diego Comic-Con. There are so many properties that I’d like to learn about and some cool exclusive items I wish I could buy. This year is no different. I would love to be able to drop in on the Voltron panel and other fun events around one of my favorite Netflix shows. I’d love to see the panel that is happening with executive producer Joaquim Dos Santos, co-executive producer Lauren Montgomery, Bex Taylor-Klaus (Pidge) and Tyler Labine (Hunk). I’d like to see the first episode of season 3 that will be shown at that panel, too.

Hunks Truck

Something really fun that is happening is that there will be Hunk’s Food Truck which will be serving Hunk’s Food Goo, which will most likely be some sort of Frozen Yogurt. You can see the full details below.
