Just to provide some info on this Lego Voltron. Price: $180. It's available now to order if you're a Lego VIP member. It'll be available to everyone else on August 1st. This is a beautiful set.
This one is actually really impressive. I was expecting that you had to choose whether to build it as the lions or the full Voltron. I never imagined that they could make it so it could be easily combined together, and vice versa. Kudos to them!
Just finished building mine, the engineering they did on it is crazy complex... there is so much thought put into it that you don't see when it's formed. I do wish they had included some sort of mini figs though, or the littler ones they do for non-scale. Worth the money, became a Lego VIP member just so I could order one early and build it!
Good, good. Give in to your inner child, let the creativity flow through you. Buy this set, and your transformation to the "money well spent" group will be complete.
Liked for just how much that guy seems to enjoy what he does (and how well he can explain it well), even if he seems to feel a little awkward doing so.
I don't normally buy Lego stuff, but this... this is a MUST BUY. I had to buy it. I have no regrets what so ever. I think the only thing that is nuts is, I've spent nearly 11+ hours building this up and I still have to build red and green lion! Egad! The price tag at first scared me away, then I thought about it and said "What the hell" and pulled the trigger. It's 2020 and this thing is now out of production. Ya'll better grab one while you can, Voltron may never be back.
I wonder where those durability tests were when they did the Bionicle line. Last time I picked up one of my Bohroks it almost looked like Thanos fucked him up when he snapped his fingers. I'm legit scared of even taking another one out of the package now.
I built the lego rocket with my kids, I may get this for Christmas if it is out by then. I guess I need to get them to see the original series or the Netflix one before then.
It'll be available to the public on August 1st. If you're a VIP Lego member, you can purchase one in the Lego store now. I just got mine a couple of days ago. It's glorious.
Niek is an industrial designer, so that is probably also an option. Understand your skills must be at the pro level and even then it is like winning the lottery. There is an insane amount of competition for these jobs.
Niek was at university in the Netherlands, and jumped at the chance to do an internship at LEGO. From what I've heard, he was lucky enough to get to stay working there and decided to do that instead of going back and finishing his degree.
Meh, I made a fully transforming Voltron out of Legos as a kid way back when the original Voltron show was airing because I Did not have the money to buy the official toys. (Made the lionbot one and the one made of vehicles) and I Did not have as many specialised pieces. It made me laugh, the part where he was talking about "If it's feasible to make" lol. ...It is a really nice model they have produced there though
Ok I will understand if they sell the set separately I hope that LEGO at least sells it in only 3 packages; both legs, both arms, chest and weapons. But if I have to buy all 5 sets independently I'll be upset.
Vinegar I think it needs to be reinvented with a lot of love and thought behind the final product rather than just brought back/rebooted again, but I doubt we'll see Bionicle on shelves again anytime soon. With any luck we'll get a spiritual successor to it, and an evolution of all the constraction themes from 1999 to now, because it's starting to look like we wont be getting any more buildable figures for some time...
As a child had had made a Lion Voltron and a Vehicle Voltron. I'm sure that my versions were much simpler than these, and probably about 50-66% of this size. Will a Vehicle Voltron follow?
This is really awesome. I think that, as soon as I have some spare time and cash, I'll order this for myself. I just hope that it doesn't get discontinued before that happens. *[u.u]:* _You could always ask it for Christmas._ You're right, Kyu. This would be a fun gift to receive for Christmas.
What's wrong with his legs? Why should we tear them off and then attach? Why don't they rotate like hands? So many complex and unnecessary details and and connections but fixed legs. I think it's potboiler.
i normally never buy lego sets but now i know i must have this
Alex Aliona real talk yo
It’s awesome. It is the first lego set I have ever purchased. Fun build, but it takes a while with 2300+ pieces
i will wait for the Gundam one to be released but most likely it will never be released due to LEGO unwillingness to pay for the license from Bandai.
be careful, Buying one will eventually lead to buying another, then another, and another! lol
Agree
This is literally the coolest Lego set ever made in the history of Lego
I see you've forgotten about the ucs millenium falcon.

$180 seems astonishingly reasonable for the size and complexity compared to other licensed Lego sets
This is almost as good value as the Lego Hogwarts releasing in a month
Wow. I thought for sure it would be a lot more expensive than that. I wonder how many GenXers are going to buy it just to put it on a shelf.
I am totally not working a contact in Hasbro to see if I can get a discount on this bad boy. Its amazing.
Why don’t you guys just drive down the road and throw your money out the window instead.
Wow!!! The size should be that the standard size of the lego person could fit inside the Voltron Lion cockpit.
Johnfortich Vista not only would that be ridiculously expensive, it would be incredibly difficult to engineer to the quality standards lego has
I remember the original series. I watched it more times than I could count. This brings back memories.

Great set! Side note: 0:28 crazy guy laughing in the background.
Beyond the Brick Lol, you were in the same area; Unsurprising...
lol thats u

Thank you so much for keeping this project alive and making it a reality! I just picked this set up tonight and cannot wait to build Voltron!!!
VERY COOL!!! And I love this guy, "oh, that goes last, I just always get too excited!" Love it!
Lego why must you tempt me so!
Good, good. Give in to your inner child, let the creativity flow through you. Buy this set, and your transformation to the "money well spent" group will be complete.
Voltron just made me love "Lego" again!🙌👏👏👏👏👍
WOW this is amazing design!
Liked for just how much that guy seems to enjoy what he does (and how well he can explain it well), even if he seems to feel a little awkward doing so.
Very Cool. I use to watch Voltron on Saturday morning cartoons when i was a kid. Now Lego is going to make a set. Awesome !!
Lego models that transform to something without disassembling is the future
We're building this set now and I can say it's worth every penny.
Holy shit I need one !!!😲😲😲
I remember trying to design something like this when I was a kid. Getting the joints to be strong was hard, I see they use special pieces here.

Mine got delivered to my door today! Spent 500 AUD to get it tho :i
9:35 turns the head towards the camera. Nice.
I gotta get my hands on this one! So badass!
Wow! That is absolutely amazing!
They should do the megazord from power rangers.
Cesar Rios mega blocks have the rights to power rangers
To be fair they havent done much with those rights....
Lego Post Malone apparently that license is adaptable
i own (from the '80 !!) the plastic one and the metal.. but this is great !!
3:13 the smile of when someone talks to you
(screams internationally)
That was a work of art.
I wonder where those durability tests were when they did the Bionicle line. Last time I picked up one of my Bohroks it almost looked like Thanos fucked him up when he snapped his fingers. I'm legit scared of even taking another one out of the package now.
I really like the medium one at 3:08
The one at 3:14 with the drawn-on smiley face is clearly the best one
A Friday night video? Whaaa! I like it!
I need this in my life IMMEDIATELY.
I cant wait to buy!! August 1st for $180!! Unless VIP member then u get it sooner
I built the lego rocket with my kids, I may get this for Christmas if it is out by then. I guess I need to get them to see the original series or the Netflix one before then.

so this is a thing now. Looking forward to more giant combining lego robots.
I’m going to be honest. This set is fucking amazing
I'm just curious about what you need to do to become a Lego designer because that has been my dream job for awhile now

whats the space suit poster behind adam seems like a nice space suit
Had no idea the set was able to break up into the individual lions, thanks.
This is amazing!
lego thunder cats anyone?
Lego Chima already exists

Nice Video Guys!!!!!!!!
Voltron is a great show!

From Denmark, but his name (and very minimal accent) is Dutch though?
Piet Muijs They hire internationally, but the design teams are still mostly based in Billund, Denmark.😉
Yeah, Niek is Dutch. I met him once and he seemed like a really nice and very enthusiastic guy.
Love it. Its Beautiful.
Bring back Bionicle...
Trust me, this designer would like to as well.
Vinegar I think it needs to be reinvented with a lot of love and thought behind the final product rather than just brought back/rebooted again, but I doubt we'll see Bionicle on shelves again anytime soon.
With any luck we'll get a spiritual successor to it, and an evolution of all the constraction themes from 1999 to now, because it's starting to look like we wont be getting any more buildable figures for some time...
They did in 2015 and it died.
bless your soul
Jordan Davies I have no soul without Bionicle
Fucking wow. That is way cooler that I thought it was gonna be!
That's actually very cool!!!
As a child had had made a Lion Voltron and a Vehicle Voltron. I'm sure that my versions were much simpler than these, and probably about 50-66% of this size. Will a Vehicle Voltron follow?
I need it! where can i buy it? i dont care how much it costs
Norm pointing out the obvious and feeling proud about it again.
yup, i need this
definitely worth the $400 price tag that goes along with it
But it's only $180 USD
ommm meeeh geeerd
My favorite things put together!
Lego and voltron

TAKE MY MONEY!!!!!!!.. I WANT!!!!!!!
Duy Nguyen $180

It is already out if you are a Lego VIP (already got and built mine) I think it is Aug 1 for everyone else
Awesome!
How to make prototypes needs to be made
God I want this set...
SO COOL
I demand Lego Gundams. All of them..... and RoboTech.
Any idea about the price point?
$180. Available in the Lego store. Got mine a couple of days ago and it's glorious.
I would buy them in a heart beat. 😋
JFC Lego, this is amazing.
This is really awesome. I think that, as soon as I have some spare time and cash, I'll order this for myself. I just hope that it doesn't get discontinued before that happens.
*[u.u]:* _You could always ask it for Christmas._
You're right, Kyu. This would be a fun gift to receive for Christmas.
Oh. My. God. YES!!!!!
Um. Where can I get one
The handgaurd on the sword should be on the outside of the hand not the inside
Would've preferred it if it was the new version.
Awesome
shit! it is gorgeous.
dam you, i need this!!!!
amazing
So cool
bro the sickest shit ever!
got mine.:)
I too, like big bots.

These are cool channel
That t-shirt though.
Hope they come with 5 voltron force human figures XD
Take my money!!!
does anyone else see beyond the brick in the background
Oooo Voltron??
Why no people
Talk about dream job...
Does lego pay people for the designs that get turned into products?
1% of all royalties, of which some choose to donate to charity.
Deixando claro meu like
Next they should make a power rangers megazord :D
he almost break one of the leg there....
What's wrong with his legs? Why should we tear them off and then attach? Why don't they rotate like hands? So many complex and unnecessary details and and connections but fixed legs. I think it's potboiler.
Here before Justin Y.
i want it
So people from Denmark sound like people from Tennessee? Good to know
Fucking cool
I love Voltron so much. T--T Thanks guys.
百獣王ゴライオン
Sigh... I wish I could afford one.
