- The 80s gave us many memorable animated T.V. series, and surely, we all have fond memories of certain cartoons from that golden era. One such cartoon was the famous 'Voltron' that was released in 1984 and took us for a ride in a universe of science fiction, fantasy, and robots! Created by Ted Koplar and Peter Keefe, this cartoon was released under the name 'Lion Force Voltron' and had two seasons. Later, there were many adaptations and reboots, including an extensive Netflix series that did justice to the show. However, today we will explore the original animated version and tell you everything there is to know about the Voltrons.

My favorite cartoon. I still get chills when I hear that moody soundtrack...
This is one of the few cartoons that even today is still one of the very best animation has to offer 💯🤘
Activate Interlocks, Dyno Therms connected, Infer Cells up, Mega Thrusters are go. LET'S GO VOLTRON FORCE!!!!!!!
FORM BLAZING SWORD !!!!
That theme gets me ready to defend my kingdom like no other.
Defender of the universe.
Damn straight! I found the soundtrack on Spotify, and I listen to it at my job all the time
I had the all metal 12 inch Voltron toy. Still remember the smell and everything
Voltron was my favorite cartoon from the early '80s Voltron😛
Ah yes... giant mecha battles and 5 champions in loud primary colors that fought against space menaces... popular before the power rangers ever came into the scene.
Also its great when you got the lion version and not the vehicles version of Voltron, but both are good in their own way.
eh i couldnt tell you a single characters name from the vehicle voltron it looked like a cheaper version of a gobot
Couldn't stand the car version.
Lion Voltron and Vehicle voltron is like comparing Transformers to Gobots
Vehicle voltron was AMAZING
That music that plays when Voltron forms still slaps.
80's cartoon magic!
Grew up on it...my jam frfr...loved this cartoon💯
I loved this show and Robotech
Fun fact, we all know this version of Voltron was from Beast King Golion (pronounced as Go Lion in the series). But originally this was supposed to be Future Robot Daltanious, however when World Events asked for three shows from Toei and requested "the one with the lion", Toei confused Daltanious with Golion and that is how we got that series instead. Although Daltanious wasn't that bad, it was not Golion. Golion did not do that well in Japan either at its original release. But thankfully that error was made.
Always loved the episodes where Voltron got pushed and had a very difficult Road Beast
Voltron was Undisputed!! Also Gai king ,Grandizer ,Star Dragon, Dan Gaurd Ace,were the pioneers..also remember the cartoon Mighty Orbots?..That was another good 80s one.
That was my show Voltron defender of the universe,i try never to miss it as kid
The intro is classic. The reviewer is wrong, however: none of the reboots live up to the original!
The 80s and 90s cartoon intros
Were classics
Ta ta ta tata ta ...etc then Voltron defender of the Universe... which sounds like the flash gordon song still totally epic 😆
@@shenglongisback4688 Awesome sauce bro love flash Gordon flash ahhh HHhH I'm going to totally vibe out to that later
@@byronrush9802 rock on ma dude... Now ive been listening too Ma ma ma mask, Saber Rider, Jayce n the Wheeled warriors..... etc for the last hour lol
@@shenglongisback4688 Sweet bro keep the vibe going now I'm going to throw on original He-Man transformers GI Joe and real Ghostbusters
Love the original, grew up with it, run a convention for it every year... But Legendary Defender is a much better show, nostalgia aside.
Even modern cartoons aren't good as Voltron! I miss the 80s, those were good times
This show is very awesome. For a long time, I thought the series took place in the 25th century. However two years ago, according to some intel about the counterpart Go Lion, it takes place in a futureristic version of 1999.
If this was set in the Star Wars universe Jedi Master Yoda would say 'Undoing his Arrogance will Be' and that saying would be true as Zarkon's arrogance was always his undoing and why his forces always loose to the Voltron Force.
Just amazing cartoon show for the 80s. They need to do a reboot.
There is... the Netflix version is pretty bad ass!!! Clear out a Saturday and binge!!
Netflix's Voltron Legendary Defender is a fantastic series, state of the art animation and clearly made with a lot of love for the source material (Voltron as well as the original GoLion and Dairugger). 78 episodes total. I used to wish they would make a live action movie, but now that this show exists, I think it wouldn't do the job nearly as well.
@@theshakeupsi agree
Voltron Defender of the Universe 😀😀
One of my favorite cartoon
We love this cartoon me and my brothers used to watch it in Arabic dubbed , amazing show I really don’t remember what was the ending ,,
Thank you for reminding us
What a great cartoon, what happened 2 those days and years?
Everything went woke. Just look at Netflix voltron.
Beast King Golion💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Best cartoon ever 👍💪😎
Voltron kicked ass
Car Voltron is my favorite.
I watched this cartoon when I was a kid during the early 80’s. This was one of many favorite cartoons during the 80’s. It’s was good time to be kid during the decade of awesome cartoons.
I love voltron. I wish that they make a live action movie of the 80s cartoon.
Thanks for bringing back my childhood we still need a movie
The orginal vultron is still the best one.
Voltron: Defender Of The Universe (1984) Cartoon Is One Of My Favorite Cartoons from the 1980's !
With Voltron’s 40th Anniversary only a year away, I think a good way to pay tribute to the show is to go back and dub Beast King GoLion in its original uncut form.
Golion = GO LION
I got to meet Mr. Koplar and his wife!
Keith should have worn the outfit the with the black trim, Lance should have worn the one with the red trim and Sven should have worn his outfit with the blue trim to match up with their respective Lion robots.
Many many memories!☺️💖✨💎✨
Finally.
Memories!!!
It also robbed my grandad's wallet. I had the plastic Voltron, great for using your imagination. All 5 lions, but it was the cheap version. My cousin smashed it because she was a dik. I was crushed and my gramps knew I took that thing everywhere. We couldn't find it anywhere, but the mall had the large metal one that was like $57 at that time, which was a lot for a toy in the mid-80s. He didn't know the difference between the two so he just grabbed it and bought it. Tell you what, my grandad was my hero for a lot of reasons, but I knew at that moment that I was his favorite grandkid, because he never bought sh*t for any of my cousins or my sister ever. That Voltron got sold by my evil aunt when I went to boot camp, so whoever bought a near mint Voltron in 1992 from an angry lady at a yardsale in Ohio, I hope you kept it.
"Gawlion"? Lol its Go Lion!
good video
Voltron so cool it need to be Narrator to Peter Cullen
I thought marvelous videos only make horror videos that's why me subscribed 😅
That was before they brought Super Sentai (Power Rangers) to America.
“Hire-ess” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pls do a Visionaries version for this
I wonder if there’s going to be a “live action “ version of this?
Let's hope not. We don't need yet another ruined childhood animated series like the live action version of The Bay-Formers or those atrocious live action G.I. Joe. films.
@@clit_niblr0375 there was actually negotiations before Transformers even came around, but it kept hitting production snags. Pharrell was gonna do the soundtrack.
Coulton one my favorite show.
Can anyone imagine a Voltron movie?
Hire-ess? (Heiress)🤣🤣🤣
I do not remember Golion with an actual place called the Galaxy Garrison before, I don't remember the original dub having anything like that.
Fav Toon
My childhood in a nutshell
Ypu should talk about Violence Jack by Go Nagai, because without that things like Fist of the North Star and I think even Mad Max where inspired by it and many more.
I don't call him Voltron anymore. Now I call him his original name, GoLion.
@@IanWy-rl2jl Add Daltanious to the list, and it'll be awesome
This was way better than power rangers
Watch the original Japanese series, Golion, talk about R rated
Did he really say "Galion" 🤣
Yes he did, maybe when they see Beast King Golion, one does think it sounds like "Go Lion", which I watched very thoroughly and is great and ruthless.
golion
süper
I got a mostly complete Popy Voltron
W vid
DARKWING DUCK .. MIGHTY MOUSE .. HONG KONG PHOOEY .. JAMES BOND JR .. WWF WRESTLING CARTOON ..
Can you do macross next
You said "does justice" twice about the spin offs and reboots. I do not that phrase means what you think it means
💯👑🔥🙌🤞
Um Sven died actually, that's why Allura was in the blue lion
And then World Event Productions would make Denver the last dinosaur. WHY???
After making such an epic show... there's only going to be inferior ones.
Well, World Events wanted to do something new for the company rather then dubbing anime like Voltron and Saber Rider
The Tick Origins A Indie Comic Hero That Gotten a Fox Kids cartoon and 2 live action TV Series
SPOON!
Please help
Do anyone remember cartoon whwre a boy controls a robot by standing on a starshaped platform. I watched as a kid in maybe 89-93
Please do Tranzor Z
This video started decently, but the play-by-play plot summary of each episode was unnecessary. An assessment of key themes and development would have been better.
Voltron with the cats was badass. The remake with the cars was lame.
Hyrus? It's heiress. Pronounced air-ess. Not that difficult of a word.
It's "Ro-beast".....
The 1984 Version aka The Real Version.
Galaxy Express 999?
"Higher-iss"? did you mean "Heiress" - "air-ess"? just before 3 minutes.
Wonder where the power rangers got their ideas from 🤔🤔🤣
Super Sentai actually, King Beast Golion came later, which is what Voltron is based on.
@@necrogenesis1981 actually I was having a bit of craic actually 🤣🤣🤣
I didn't like the new version. 80s' visuals feel vastly superior to the modern cold CGI, the character behaviour was way too slapsticky in the new one and the music was way better in the original as well.
The Netflix trash didn't come close
Megas xlr s force
If you had ever actually bothered to WATCH Voltron, you would know that the castle diplomat's name is pronounced " Cor-ăn' " with the short a in the accented second syllable. If you never even watched the series, what gives you any sort of right to review it?
I remember the Lion Voltron that show was the s@@t but i didnt like the Vehicle Voltron..
I was like 5 or 6 when this was on in America.. and it took me all of like 2 episodes to be sick and tired of fcukin Voltron...
A) they won the same way every time-- vertical slice down the middle, so annoying...
B) more importantly, the friggin monsters they had to fight got cooler, and deadlier and stronger and just better looking each week....
ONE of them had to win, at least once, come on!
Or the head bad guy had to have had SOME sorta scouting report on Voltron and could've told the beast, "watch out for the big ass jumping sword strike-- it killed my last 78 monsters, but I got a good feeling about you, ESPECIALLY with this sword info! Now get out there and win one for the Skip!"
Not every kid...
American version sucks I prefer the japanese one
they change so many things which is lame
My first love, I had the big ass metal or heavy VOLTRON toy and I'm sure it all attached or so or was one full unit but they always played this cartoon mad early and I had to go to school, the intro, the lions, VOLTRON, the pilots, LEGENDARY
