Golion Voltron came out in 1981. Power rangers Megazord came out in 1993. Voltron came out so many years before Power rangers.

I know it's an action figure, but I'm sorry 3:01 looks SO WRONG!

@SpacerAM2 That is were you are wrong. Super Sentai (the Japanese series that ended up becoming the Power Rangers in the states) have been using Mecha since 1979.

how much did it cost to buy it?

[compendiumgravemind]

the orginal full metal version was bad ass. the only parts that broke were the legs thats only because if to much metal put pressure on them.

I actually had the original one, my dad bought the entire set for me when I was 8 yrs old, but a year later, when my brother was 2 he would cry because he wanted to play with it and my parents forced me to let him borrow it. on one occasion I had to let him borrow the black lion when we went on a trip, when we got to our destination I noticed my brother didn't have the black lion anymore, and I never saw it again.

@chachipower I had the plastic version and sold it. I did end up getting the diecast and can say this thing blew me away. I used to have the old original diecast GoLion. Was one of my prized toys back in the day. This new diecast one just blows that old one away! The plastic one for me, was too light and not as colorful and heavy as the diecast. It looked more like a plastic toy. I have it enclosed in a case, on display, posed and it is incredible! I HIGHLY reccomend it to any Voltron fan!

@nicknasty14 not sure if you were talking about my video review for the plastic version, but yeah mine was seized and took incredible twisting which was stressing the plastic clip on the lion arm really bad, I used a square shafted screwdriver that fit perfect and it snapped clean quite easily since metal doesnt give. Now the arem ratchets fine. As far as the diecast, its not as toy like as the plastic, its real heavy, and meant mostly for display, but it is AWESOME

Zyuranger came out in 1992. Saban edited it and called it Power Rangers. It was released here in the states a year later.
