Gladiator Voltron What might have been!

A tribute to what might have been, if only Gladiator Voltron would have made it to 1980s USA Cartoon. Gladiator Voltron was going to come after Vehicle Voltron series ended, but never made it to air. It was taken from the Japanese anime Super Robot show called "ALBEGAS", and would have been a 3 person team with 3 robots combining into one larger Voltron. He not only had a Blazing sword, but also a Staff with lightning blades on each end. The colors were Red, Blue, and Black. It's a shame it never made it, but this is a what if tribute to how it might have been had it been a series of Voltron. Enjoy!

I have the full 45 episodes of this series, and it calld ALBEGAS. not damn Voltron.

@salskyline Yes it's ALBEGAS, but this was the series that the people behind Voltron series Lion Force, and Vehicle team was going to use as a possible 3rd series but it never seen the light of day. ALBEGAS would have been known as Gladiator Voltron series 3.

i remember watching this gladiator voltron when i was a kid back in south korea in korean dubbed. the truth is the original title is actually not gladiator voltron.

[HeroesAndWarriors77]

Your right, in the USA it would have been called Gladiator Voltron, but the Original title of the series was known as Kozo Udengami Albegas! Thanks for the comment hyoboy81.

Oh yea it was said that due to the Lion Voltron's popularity & Vehicle Voltron's lack of popularity that prompted WEP not to show Gladiator Voltron

[HeroesAndWarriors77]

I loved Vehicle Voltron, & the Lion Force. Lion Force was more based in the magic and fantasy, while Vehicle Voltron was more technological, & star wars feel to it. Some kids rather the Magic, while others the space adventures. I loved both, it's a shame Gladiator Voltron never aired. Thanks for the comment, peace out!

[ssjin4vegeta]

never saw the cartoon but had the toy as a kid and the only thing i hated about this Voltron was when you put them 2gether he had 6 arms :( but i see on the cartoon the other arms are not there..... ahhhh oh well, sometimes i wish toy makers would stay close to the cartoons! good vid 5 stars! :)

[InterwebJERK]

as a child I had the black gladiator Voltron.. and on thr box it said Voltron not Albegas.

[KameinuFK]

So WEP would had taken any combiner mecha from that time, that wasn't TF, and slap the "Voltron" label on it had they gotten the chance?

Seems that way. XP

LMFAO!! I had this toy when I was a kid and hated it cuz it wasn't the lion force voltron. I thought it was a cheap imitation. DAMN! I should of kept those old toys, they'd probably be worth something now.

[andoc]

I think Voltus V or Combattler V would have been better follow ups to Lion and Vehicle Voltron with the 5 team members based dynamics. Then again, Voltus and Combattler are too awesome to be part of the Voltron mythos, so it might not have worked.

why was it never brought over. does a anyone know where on here the show is on. i want to see it. i wanted to see it then because they made a real deal a about this series. i waited, never saw it

[thedigetz]

i think they should have come out with this before the vehicle force. the vehicle force is just over complicated

[lgonz87495]

I would had like to watch this Voltron because I had the toys as a kid. I actually had all 3 voltrons

[cjason150]

I actually had the Red Robot toy when I was a kid. My Uncle was in South Korea at the time (US Army) and brought it back for me. It said Voltron on the packaging and I always wondered why the US didn't get the cartoon series. On the back it showed clips of the cartoon.

@salskyline you say you have the series, but is it in english? or does it have english subtitles?
