I'm still traumatized. It was the mid 1980's. I'm five years old, I have all the Voltron Lions and little people that go inside them. And the family moved, and the box with the toys got lost or something. Next thing I know, I'm playing with Ghostbusters and Ninja Turtles. Never got over it. lol
I know what you mean. I had a Rat Patrol lunch box I got in the second grade and carried it to the sixth grade.Then we moved and I had to leave it behind. Those old boxes are worth money now. 😞
I had the entire chipmunk collection with David and the van and all instruments. My brother traded my toys at school, for other crappy toys. I hated my brother for a long time after that. Alls forgiven now, but I'll never forget.
Been a fan since it was on tv in 83 I was 12 now I'm 51 and still love this cartoon I can't say that about any other one except for the Penuts gang C.B.
@@dantejackson4606 right I just noticed that too trying to figure out why I never noticed it when I was a child? Like I definitely noticed starscream and Cobra Commander. But they were in the same space so I guess it was easier. Voltron was on some way different different anime type. So I never put two and two together. I should have been more attentive.
In this series he did a few voices, narrator, Coran, king alfor...in Vehicle Voltron, he was also commander hawkins.@@chrismayer3919 Everything else from Eeyore to the Predator. So many.
I was glued to our TV box until it was 4pm (just one day in a week) when the national broadcast would start so that I could watch just any of the 30-min episodes allowed for viewing in Southern Nigeria. My childhood memories!!😁 Imagine the days I couldn't watch because we didn't have electricity?
My best childhood cartoon. Now I’m 39 years old. Still love this. We hadn’t a television those days. We Had to walk 100 meters to watch television. I’m from Sri Lanka.
Was just doing some browsing and found this gem. Back in the day, 1983 or 1984, I was in college and found this amazing new cartoon series. I grew up watching The Bugs Bunny/Roadrunner cartoons and was still an avid Looney Tunes fan. Then I found this, and then Thundercats, and then Silverhawks. Here I am, having just turned 59, and I'm watching a cartoon designed for kids. I'm perfectly okay with this. 🙂
For sure, most definitely. I hated the car version and wouldn't bother watching it when it aired. The lion version looked better to me. Seems as though it was a better fit for the show.
Licensing, World Events Productions holds the rights and licensing in the US to Voltron. They haven’t been very cooperative with the studios. There have been studios who have wanted to produce a live action movie, but WEP stands in the way !
Yup their crying, screaming and paying respect because he fell into water. Even as a kid I never understood that part boy was I shocked years later when I watched the original GoLion
Amazing. I remember as kid, I was 10 back in 2000. Every Thursday after school i would run straight home so that i don't miss it. I also never got to see the last episode until now.
It reminds me of when I was 3, and every weekday morning FOX 5 would air an all new episode VOLTRON; and it was great. I don't care what anyone says this show was/is/always will be AWESOME!!!!! You can keep your Dragon Ball Z's and your Naruto's, Voltron was my gateway anime. :-)
Well, as you may or may not know Voltron was a water down version of Japanese am me Beast king go lion. And in case of this episode Sandy did damage to Voltron with stab marks on him. Also once Voltron removed the S from Sandy the shock of removing the Symbol was too much for Sandy killing him instantly.
@20:00 'When they did find Sven, they discovered that his fall had been broken by the water ... where his wounds would heal in time.' - Uh ok Optimus, but didn't I see rocks below them as they fell?
You got to love it that Optimus Prime is the narrator for Voltron, defender of the universe!
Really???
@@777macdude Yes, both done by the same person.
When Our Man Prime is your Hypeman, only good things follow.
And saber rider
I'm 39 and this was the cartoon of my childhood!
Me too mate. I’m 39 old now. And it was my best childhood cartoon
considering that you commented a year ago, that puts you at 40 years in 2024. Just like me. it was my favorite cartoon as well.
"Anime", not cartoon
This and Thundercats were my show back in the day.
Let’s not forget SilverHawks!
@@GulfCoastSportsLLC He-man, She-Ra,Gi Joe,Turtles,Ghost buster they where the best
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!👍
yessss. me too. Voltron and Thundercats
The good old days when grown folks loved and still love watching cartoons

First cartoon I remember to have an ending 👍
I remember racing home after school to see this and Macross.
I’ve been a Voltron fan since Day 1 (BOTH VERSIONS) I stil love doing Stop Motion with my Voltron figures🎬📸🎞️‼️‼️
Been a fan since it was on tv in 83 I was 12 now I'm 51 and still love this cartoon
I can't say that about any other one except for the Penuts gang C.B.
The music gives me chills Everytime voltron transforms😁 and most of all the narrator sounds like optimus prime😂
Because it is Optimus Prime...

Peter Cullen did many voices, but OP is his Magnum Opus!

I missed out on this EPISODE!
Been on earth 44 years.
Now I can WATCH on RUclips.
But I miss the old CRT BOX TV!
Childhood memories. Back in mid 90's, PTV used to telecast Voltron.
The forming of Voltron still gives me goosebumps to this day like it did when i was a kid.
Thank God for RUclips. I can watch all of the old cartoons every day especially voltron
i'm 50 i grow watching old cartoons,.i think the should bring back Voltron cartoons
Back in the day, 4 year old me went absolutely bananas when the horns kicked in.

Voltron was my Favorite Cartoon in the 80s... those Robot Lions blow my mind
I remember how I was ENORMOUSLY jealous of Pidge because he piloted a robot lion vehicle while I was stuck with walking or a bicycle.

The lions were better than the car version
THANK YOU!
Nahh...not quite
@@azimuth.setting_2351 Yes....QUITE
For sure, most definitely. I hated the car version and wouldn't bother watching it when it aired. The lion version looked better to me. Seems as though it was a better fit for the show.
I agree. It was much simpler with just five people and you can get along with them. Particularly Princess Allura. She defines “girl power”.
I still don't understand why Voltron was never put on the big screen even to this day I'm 51 and I still love Voltron

IF THEY CAN MAKE TRANSFORMERS LIVE THEY CAN DEFINITELY DO VOLTRON ( THE LIONS OF COURSE)
The problem is the license held by World Events Productions
I remember when Cartoon Network aired voltron
Cartoon Network really don't show good cartoons now.
Good ol Peter Cullen
Introducing my grandson to this now. He likes this show.
whos here in 2022????? ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Optimus Prime the narrator. 😀
and Coran too
never see that coming

voltron was a cartoon I don't miss in those days of great beginning
Boltro enapañol
i want to see keith
When it was time to form the blazing sword it was all over for the robeast..
I love both Voltrons car and lions. ❤❤❤❤
I’ve been a Voltron fan since Day 1 (BOTH VERSIONS) I stil love doing Stop Motion with my Voltron figures🎬📸🎞️‼️‼️
I miss watching Voltron ❤
I love how in the opening monologue by Optimus Prime they use the terms "solar system", "galaxy", and "universe" to basically mean the same thing.
Yeah... scale can get crazy in fiction sometimes...
I’ve been a Voltron fan since Day 1 (BOTH VERSIONS) I stil love doing Stop Motion with my Voltron figures🎬📸🎞️‼️‼️
Yeah and an interstellar vessel travels at Mach 5 and reach it's destination in minutes hours or 1 centon.
Episode 1: there’s only 1 Voltron
Episode 52: If the galaxy alliance has two voltrons
cool
never see that coming
Then a kid goes to the toy aisles, and there's ANOTHER Voltron toy, based off "Albegas".
We Are All Part Of VOLTRON DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE!
This was back when cartoons was great
never see that coming
Favorite show
The voice of Optimus Prime
It looks like Peter Cullen tweaked his voice a bit for this role, as he sounds slightly different from the Transformers.
It’s 6 in the morning. WHY DID THEY POST THIS AT SIX IN THE MORNING?!?!?
It reminds me of when I was 3, and every weekday morning FOX 5 would air an all new episode VOLTRON; and it was great. I don't care what anyone says this show was/is/always will be AWESOME!!!!! You can keep your Dragon Ball Z's and your Naruto's, Voltron was my gateway anime. :-)
guessing it was scheduled.
@@R.J.Godzilla81 AMEN!
Of all of the 80's cartoon villains Prince LOTOR was a real scumbag
Optimus Prime taking a small break to narrate is everything to me.
It’s been years we are in 2023 and this castle still has not been made. This is iconic. Hasbro really need to jump on this
Lotor:"They destroyed my castle! I'll get them!"
B 4 Power Rangers.
Actually I think Sentai is older than GoLion ironically
@@frankjager2420 didn't say Sentai. Said the power rangers
@@Biggjuggs333 Sentai IS Power Rangers in Japan. Thats been shown there long before it came to America. Season one of PR here was season 15 in Japan
My childhood lives on!!! 😊😊
I WATCH THIS EVERY OTHER WEEK
This is the best version of voltron
no
It so cute the we have the G rated story in this clip but the real fans know the outcome of this fight.
What was the real outcome?
Well, as you may or may not know Voltron was a water down version of Japanese am me Beast king go lion. And in case of this episode Sandy did damage to Voltron with stab marks on him. Also once Voltron removed the S from Sandy the shock of removing the Symbol was too much for Sandy killing him instantly.
And I thought I was I only person that watched this cartoon.
My childhood fav cartoon
This brings nostalgic feelings.
Yep hasan bhai you r right...😢😢😢 the golden era of ptv..
Good days in my life
We watched this on thursday at 4 pm....
Sandy did fully recover in heaven.
never see that coming
Lotor knew he was bull sh!!ting when he said Voltron will fail because he was sweating already, 😅😅
Optimus Prime doing the opening. Makes my monster grow everytime!!!
Still the superior Voltron.
never see that coming
From days of long ago, from uncharted regions throughout the universe.....
optimus prime
Yea this is Chris I just love voltron
"That 'S'...Pin him down and get at that 'S'..."
Voltron wanted Sand Robeast to back that 'S' up so bad that he just had to take it.
I remember watching this on cartoon network&the cartoon express on usa
Go Gen X 🎉🎉
I stil love doing Stop Motion with my Voltron Bots 🎬📸🎞️‼️‼️
@@OfficialTransformers Outstanding
I loved both versions of Voltron I have both the vehicle teams and the lions but to me something about The Lions look a lot better
Given the body language and emotion, I'm willing to bet that he didn't survive in the Japanese script.
@20:00 'When they did find Sven, they discovered that his fall had been broken by the water ... where his wounds would heal in time.' - Uh ok Optimus, but didn't I see rocks below them as they fell?
Why were there two Voltrons? They should have named the other one like Cartron or like Sectron or maybe Vectron
I guess the Sandy got the space hospital treatment too...
Vehicle voltron was ok but lions were alot better. With the Vehicle's, I didn't who was operating what. Lol! Too many parts. Lol
Plus even sloppier editing and more shoddier voice acting for the most.
Wait! Is that the voice of Optimus Prime?
Yes
We are the real defenders of the universe.
Me watching the newest one.sees this .me:I DiD nOt KNoW ThIs wHas In AnImE
Btw very good
I never lost an episode when I was a kid
I'll form the head
Oh...........my...............god..............!!!!!!!
oh my god
I had the toy, with the plastic wouldn't have broken on the back of the black lion
cool
never see that coming
lock out team
If ThunderCats had a baby with Transformers it would be Voltron
44:08 Deep sleep. He'll wake up soon. Lmao
Bellissimo mai visto
i love his ship
COOL
Bring back memories when Reagan was President
Part of me wishes the commercials played
I would love to see the Japanese version of Voltron.
nice
Sandy died. Who are they kidding
6:14
Fun fact: his head explodes after this shot
Why is Optimus Prime announcing the commercial breaks?
The lions was better hands down
Boy this was really censored when brought to America
And Poorly you can clearly see that there’s no water here only rock
Lock.. out.. Team¡¡¡¡
nice
Days of childhood, cartoons
I think that ending was abit misleading. The little guy died.
Lothors sword is similar to a Jedi's light saber. Too bad there wasn't a cross over cartoon series. That be cool.
After this there will second season 2 remember
very nice mice
If someone can come up with a Voltron movies just like Transformers or Avatar
I agree the lions are better then the cars
The narrator sou d's like optimus prime
It is him!
He also does the voice of the robeast controller too.
Yes i know
@@blaw7858 just mentioning it because I thought it was cool. Love Peter Cullen.
Ninjartist 36 yea I love prime as well from chris
