    The first time they formed Voltron is one of the greatest moments in animation history. Because back then you never saw anything like it, and you knew that you were witnessing something very special.

      More like Voltron brings an inspiration of the megazords we knew today. As most megazords in the Sentai series before Voltron, they were just transforming vehicles or just giant robots from the start without forming together. But after Voltron, that's when the Sentai series pretty much start to pull out something similar and it sticks with the Sentai/power rangers afterwards.

    Both shows were part of the Sentai genre, so they tended to stick to the same old tired formula: a team of 3 or more (with 5 being a common number) young heroes (superpowers were optional), color-coded for easy identification, with leadership usually falling to either ''black'' or ''red''.
    There were a ton of shows that all followed this same cookie-cutter template, so (naturally) they all look alike.

    Unlike the Power Rangers, the Voltron Force doesn't waste time to use their robot as an instant solution to deal with the monsters they face, probably knowing it would it things much quicker instead of messing around fighting on the ground at first unless absolutely necessary (like when Keith has to fight Lotor head-on when he was caught off guard before he could get to his lion).

      nilesrock024 no you don't. Michael Bay or someone like him will butcher Voltron. No other director will use the original cartoon as the sole means of story material as they will attempt to put theirselves into the story, making a potential movie suck.
      The only way that won't happen is an ironclad, unbreakable, set-in-stone, forbidden to even make a suggestion to the contrary clause in the contract stating the 1984-1986 cartoon is the sole material for story, canon, all ancillary items. Also an overseer of some kind to mask sure they comply.
      Such a contract would have to have dire consequences if violated.
      Example :Any attempt to circumvent, change, defy, suggestion to try anything to contrary to the above provision constitutes violation of the contract and triple damages, the immediate termination of the project and rights revert to original owners.
      No established director, producer or film company will sign that kind of contract but it would protect a potential movie. An unknown director and independent film company might.

    They literally hooked a generation of kids with this sequence. The first episodes of this opening miniseries were mostly just talk about Voltron, but when you finally see him come together in these last few minutes it left you just wanting more. Talk about leaving an audience on a high! It's lasted almost 40 years...and counting!

  • @nicholasmorsovillo2752

    You know it's funny that every time I see the classic Voltron and watch that part where they unite the lions and form the mighty robot whenever the combining sequence is completed and you hear Voltron become energized when you hear that it's the same sound effects of the weapons fire of the Martian War Machines from the original War of the Worlds man that was quite surprising to say the least.

I always got hyped as a child when they formed their sword. Still remember owning the toy. Die cast metal blue and Yellow lions. Made that toy so heavy. Lost my shit when my cousin dropped my blue lion and the stomach split open. Not going to lie I punched my cousin that day. I really also became a doctor to fix my toy. lol

    This transformation during that generation was probably equivalent to when Goku first bcame a Super Saiyan and Gohan becoming a Super Saiyan 2. It was just epic for that generation because up until that point, it was unique. There wasn't anything like it. It was something we had never seen before. I just remember the hoopla that this caused in school the very next day. Everybody was talking about it, the school girls and one of my school teachers talked about it too. Man!... That's just good times, right there.
