Oh! This brings back soooo many memories... heroes with mullets, doing karate and being uber-good for no apparent reason - that's what kids should grow up on!
this cartoon made me socially challenged because of the amount of time spent indoors watching voltron as a child....also SUPERTED contributed to my demise :).
@xgcx101 actually yeah, 1primacron is right, power rangers is a rip off of voltron cuz if u watch the original show, it has the exact same concept and the megazord even looks similar and pulls out his sword the same way
Voltron was the shit. I remember waking up early every morning to watch it. Voltron puts the Power Rangers to shame. Voltron vs. Power Rangers, Voltron 1, Power Rangers -100. I've never found a more unique storyline and unique character development then Voltron.
@Destinynite1 hehe yeah Power Rangers was meh. But it was just one of a long line of Super Sentai shows. My favorite of those was Bioman. More compelling storyline imo. Voltron of course was the shit too.
@jvlivs2 and it was also cool to have Peter Cullen voicing an old English butler type (Coran). I also though that the ruins of the Castle of Lions were interesting (would have been cool to see how the castle looked in it's glory)
@jstinson78 : In the Japanese orginal GoLion, Voltron was a blood thirsty killing machine and he killed all kinds of space beasts. He went to kill the space goddess and she split him into 5 pieces. Just search Youtube for GoLion and you'll find the Japanese subtitled in English. Voltron rocks!
@9577frasier No, Keith isn't. Lance (Michael Bell) is the voice of the original Plastic Man (1978-80?) Just do an IMdB search on it. Neil Ross voiced Keith.
At 12:16, in the original cartoon he didn't say anything silly like "You can not escape!" but instead said "We have awaited you!". The fact is that they're not looked on as "strangers" when they arrive at all but are heralded as the arriving "saviors" of the planet. As I watch the original Golion cartoon, it's interesting to note all the ways in which they changed the story. Also, he's wasn't the "castle diplomat" as he says in this version, but rather the "royal military strategist".
A little before 6 minutes in, if you're wondering what the original dialog is he's saying that the people might have been cannibals. Thus the reason why "Hunk" looks so frightened after it. It's funny, they change the dialog so much but they can't change the facial expressions the characters give. It's also amusing how there's a violence warning before this cartoon. The original Japanese Golion was way more violent!
the narrator at the beginning sounds like the voice optimus prime from the transformers cartoon. It probably was as I believe Voltron came out before Transformers
My godson is 2 years old. It's time I'd show him the magic of old cartoons. So that he won't be like the kids of this generation, with their stupid Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, Justin Bieber bullshit!
This was the coolest show ever. I used to watch it as a kid. totally stoked to find it on youtube! the earlier shows weren't accessible, i'm going to be up all night tonight watching!
i have a friend in england i keep sending voltron stuff too but when they try to watch it, it says unavailable to them...does anyone know why she cant watch them?
at 18:12 I love how king Zarkon automatically knew them as "the Voltron Force" 3-4 seconds right after they got the title. Im telling you those rats where SPIES
Kids today talk shit bout this old skool cartoon. Try livin in the 80s when there were no PS3s, but the definition of gaming is Atari, no fuckin internet to do your stupid book reports, and everybody had to be home on a saturday morning for Voltron. haha! This WAS the shit back then!
VOLTRON is so AWSOME!!! I remember watching it on TV when I was like 4 or 5 years old... But, of course, it came on in the morning and my mom had to drag me away from the TV kicking and screaming just to go to preschool... Yep, very fond memeries of this show... It is so good to see it again... Didn't like the remake of it in I think 1999 or so...
You're right here... Kids are stupider today than years ago... You just can't appreceiate the classics just because it looks old and not up to their standards...
Lol how did the evil king know they were the Voltron Force, just seconds after they were dubbed that title? Crazy cartoons and their lack of making sense.
all i'm missing now is He-Man. get full lengths of that up and i'm officially a kid again, lol. the 30 somethings of today were in such a happy time back then. pure americana.
once HE-MAN WENT OFF THE AIR , IT WAS NEVER SHOWN AGAIN ..FACT. you cant even find the first season anywehere. someone brought the rights, and never sold them
Thank you very much for this I subbed be blessed.
