Posted on September 11, 2019 by Greg Tyler

Playmates Toys’ “Voltron 84″ Classic Legendary Lions, which were originally released at mass retail in late 2017, are being re-released as a GameStop exclusive.

The five lions combine into a 16” Voltron. Black Lion features electronic lights and sounds. Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow Lion each include a variety of accessories.

Here’s how to pre-order online:

  • Voltron Classic Black Lion Figure Only at GameStop – $39.99 
  • Voltron Classic Red Lion Figure Only at GameStop – $24.99 
  • Voltron Classic Green Lion Figure Only at GameStop – $24.99 
  • Voltron Classic Blue Lion Figure Only at GameStop – $24.99 
  • Voltron Classic Yellow Lion Figure Only at GameStop – $24.99 

As co-host of Let’s Voltron: The Official Voltron Podcast, I reviewed these lion toys for the podcast’s YouTube channel. Check it out here.

These are my all-time favorite toys of the 1980s Voltron lons that don’t carry pilot action figures. (Yes, I like them more than the Popy/Bandai Golion of the early 1980s, the classic Matchbox version in the mid-1980s, and the Bandai Soul of Chogokin GX-71 of 2017.)

Robeast Prorok Looks Familiar…

Posted on September 7, 2019 by Greg Tyler

I knew that Voltron: Legendary Defender‘s Robeast Prorok looked familiar…

Robeast Prorok and Robo Force toys
Prorok’s barrel-like body, rocket nozzle-like base, and long, clawed arms look a lot like the Robo Force toys made by Ideal in 1984!
