Over thirty years before DreamWorks’ Voltron: Legendary Defender became a breakout hit as a Netflix Original Series (read my feature on it here), there was Voltron: Defender of the Universe… or what kids like myself knew it as back in 1984, simply, Voltron. Now, with the new series already in its second season, a whole new generation has discovered an exciting world, but one worthy of a history lesson. Voltron ’84 is a hand-picked collection of twelve episodes from the original series, enhanced by introductions by the creative team behind the current series. To celebrate the arrival of Voltron ’84 on Netflix, the Voltron crew has teamed-up with The Rock Father™ to give you a chance to win a couple of new action figures from the folks at Playmates Toys!
With the launch of Playmates’ new Voltron collection, there’s something for everyone – both in terms of size and budget. There’s Basic (non-combining) Action Figures with play features, combinable “Legendary” Action Figures, and Deluxe Action Figures with tons of action features. We’d received a couple of the basic figures for review, but our lion force was rounded-out thanks to a trip to the store. While these don’t combine, I do dig the idea of kids being able to have a complete 6″ Voltron for around $10.
