    exactly. and screw you mattel for not molding the lions legs in gray/silver. the white is garish.

    Voltron was never that great of a gestault, and this one doesn't bring anything great to the table other than some size.

    Even at $50 a lion (Counting Figure) I am so in!

    Factor in Camera Flash and they might be grey after all.

    I like the size but other than that I prefer my Toynami version.

    Wish they'd put this in stores instead of Supreme Devastator.

    wait... FIFTY DOLLARS a lion?!?!? This thing SHOULD look better than the Toynami one!!!!

    Definitely looks awesome. It's a good updated version, but imo nothing beats the old die-cast set.

    maybe. but the legs look pretty light. if they are grey it's a VERY light shade. regardless, the legs should be silver.

    I agree, things like this need to stay die cast. I remember having a set as a child.

    ii would probably think about getting the highly articulated versions of these.. just a shame they dont appear to combine like the simpler ones do

    I'd still like to know how that one-touch conversion gimmick works.

    I'm digging the new voltron more than that old one. Love the range of motion on the old. I think I might pick up the 5 lions of the new though. Maybe a 6" figure of it too. So they better make one!

    The 6" super articulated figure is an SDCC exclusive

    I think Snow means a 6" of the new Voltron, animated style.

    Ah I see.

    Easy pass on all of these. Glad I got the Masterpiece version.

  23. Snowflakian's Avatar Snowflakian says

    Yeah, I meant new. I'm burned out on old style. New mech design I like, but the people designs I don't.

    So new all the way for me. I got old out of my system between now and trendmaster days.

    I would love to see newer prototypes of the new Voltron, the prototypes they showed were rougher than I thought they'd be. Seems like Voltron Classics took priority, which is understandable given that it's the most recognizable.

  25. CG76's Avatar CG76 says

    I'm still on the fence on this one. I dunno. I don't understand why Mattel won't just release all the lions at once. Imagine having to to wait at least 5 months just to complete the darn robot. They kill you to on shipping if you wanted two sets (one to open and one to keep sealed in box).
