@boxingjessie I had all 5 lions, but I wasn't rich at all. My dad was a cop, and cops don't make shit. They scrimped and saved for all 5 lions and that was the big Xmas present that year. I still have my Voltron lions, and they ain't goin' on eBay! :D
@lomomusician my freind at that time ahd allt he toys GI JOE, TRansformers, Voltron, you name it. When he turned 13 his dad, some mullet wearing guy, took all his toys out of his bedroom , put them in a big box and put them out ont he curb. My freind was devistated and I was pissed as well.
@mourningstar01: Power rangers or "Super Sentai" in japanese domestic release, has been going on longer than Voltron ever did. That being said, I am more partial to Voltron as I watched it as a kid and not Power Rangers (yes, I am older than 20) and it therefore has a place in my heart that nothing else can take.
I bought the whole season.. I wish I could be alive when those toy came out... I find them at eBay but they r expensive now, and forget. To much not enough money for that, may be when im rich
Yeah now i'm forthy and i still have my die cast Daitarn 3,Zambot 3,Gundam,Daimos...not in good conditions,but they are in my living room remembering how sweet was these days
My brother and I got voltron for christmas in 1983 or 1984. He got the lion voltron and I got the vehicle voltron. I was so happy when i got a voltron. I wish I still had it today.
Man, these old commercials are so funny to me now. Back then, the idea of having those huge combiner robots; Transformers/Voltron, in our small child hands was so coveted! lol They were so physically huge and heavy in our hands. And now we're all adults and these same toys are what we continue to covet! Haha.
Wow, I remember when I got my voltron... It was my 10th birthday. I have never been so happy.
and yes, I still have it.... not the cheap plastic one, but the original matchbox diecast one. He has a special place of honor in my home theater room. toys were so much cooler back then
I completely agree. I always remembered toys being real die cast metal back in the 80s, not cheap plastic. Back then, if your foot broke because your toy fell on it, then that toy was well made! Haha
Back in the days my family was real poor but my parents somehow managed to get all 5 lions for me and I was super happy. I miss the 80's, I miss my voltron toy, and I miss my parents.
i had the die-cast set. I admit it was way too heavy for most kids (what were they thinking?) but it was sooo great and made my friend jealous. I miss that thing. Booo to the plastic distorted lion clone
Rich kids had all 5 lions.

Great toy. I used to have one and kept it immaculate with box for some reason. Too bad my mom gave it away to someone. Its worth alot of money now.
