- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- Let's Voltron Podcast Co-Host Greg Tyler reviews all 5 Legendary Lions from Playmates Toys that combine to form Voltron from DreamWorks' Voltron Legendary Defender on Netflix.
Each Legendary Lion in this 5-figure set is purchased separately and has been available in stores like Target, Toys-R-Us, Wal-Mart, Amazon, and select comic shops since January 1, 2017.
The price of Yellow Lion, Blue Lion, Red Lion and Green Lion is $17.99 each. Black Lion, which is larger than the other Lions and has the electronic technology features, is priced at $29.99.
When all 5 Lions combine to form Voltron, it stands at 16 inches tall, has more than 50 electronic sounds and phrases, and is very poseable, all of which are demonstrated in this video review.
Let's Voltron Podcast has this review and many more Playmates Toys Voltron Legendary Defender toy reviews on our UA-cam Channel. We also talked to Jeff Trojan, VP of Marketing for Playmates Toys, during our podcast interview at LetsVoltron.com/81 - so check it out!
Keith is Shiro's effective second-in-command, and as the Red Lion, forms Voltron's right hand. OMG Symbolism!

-Lion: 1 shot

ahh yes by half way youd be blackout drunk
Pidge's sound effects were so adorable 😭😭😭😍😍😍😍
I love this design. Wish the megazord in the new power rangers movie looked HALF this cool!
The power Rangers could never smh
I just got that toy for my B day. 8/19 /2005 Thanks for showing me how to transform it! 😄
Kinda surprised no one talks about the black lions outward leg moment at the hip and the leg swivel at the knee. Thanks for highlighting this.
Just got all 5 today, i found 4 at my local walmart but had to travel two hours to find the black lion at a toys r us. It was worth it though! Its awesome once combined!
I wish I had them all already. Kind of wanted to follow along. Good job. Gettomg excited while maintaining professionalism!

I just got the Toys R Us set with all 5 Lions in one box for less than 90 dollars this last weekend. I have not yet had a chance to unbox the set since my man cave is still a mess and I need to clean it up and put in the new shelf units to display all the collectables that I own. Thank you for showing how to put together and take apart Voltron with my luck I would have probably have snapped either Red or Green and broken the link.
Amazing video, and great review. I COMPLETELY agree with how Scary it is to separate the arms from the black lion. I really felt as though I was almost breaking the toy. I wish they added a quick separator similar to the legs. The arms (red & green lion) are a pain to separate from the body (black lion).
SFCarlosb we love the comments
The more things change, the more they stay the same. The old die-cast DotU/GoLion Voltron from the 80s was stubborn about letting Red and Green go, as well. I broke Green's tail off separating it from Black once, when I was a kid. It was heartbreaking until my Dad brought me home a replacement green. I got them all at once in the hugely expensive complete set and didn't think you could get them individually so I thought Voltron was gone for good, or at least an amputee forever!
I actually have two sets of these lions to custom paint and make look really good, both as Voltron and the lions. Haven't opened them yet to see what I'm working with so this video really helped me get a feel for what I can look forward to and what customizing needs to be done.
This toy is amazing, Triton recently got them all and it is now his favorite toy! Thanks for the video
Well done! Very thorough and easy to understand. Playmates did an AMAZING job with this set! Hey, I saw what you did to those Rangers!

Great review! Most of the reviews I've seen never extended the Blue and Yellow lion's head. Poor Rangers, became targets :)
Lendy Tayag I like the original Power Rangers, too!
I have watched every single kind of Voltron ever made
I remeber wanting this 6 years ago, recently rewatched the show and its still one of my favourites. Any red lion fans?
Red lion is the best
I'm buying this tomorrow, I used to own the OG Voltron, can't wait for Season 5. Great Video! Go Lion!
they shouldve include Blam Blam Blam lol
I never though anyone could make Volrton boring , but so somehow managed to bull it off, bravo
im 14 and i want this
Dva.izuru I'm 14 as well ,and I don't care what people say I still collect toys. :)
same here! I just got Blue today and I already want the others!
wonderloom I'm 20 and I want this
I'm 16 and so do I. :)
same
I just found the black lion today, I'm on the hunt for the rest. man these are hard to find lol

Very helpful video! Now I know exactly what to get my friend for his birthday.
This is the best review for these toys. Thanks!
Gregory Gleason Thank you for the kind words! These are seriously awesome toys.
Honestly...Who thumbs-downed THIS? Great video - Thank you!
Amazingly well done review, very professional! Great figures, too! Go out and get them everyone!
Thanks for the amazing review, Voltron is my favorite Netflix original, I have to get this right away
Bought it years ago. Finally unboxed and assembled it. It's alright. I wish there was more head articulation. I think I'm spoiled with the TF siege figures haha
Just wanted to say thanks for showing me some intricacies of the toys that I missed in the instructions (¡excitement!) and others that aren't made clear (arm detachment).
I have had my Black Lion since January but only Two days ago picked up the others on a trip since where I live so few retailers carry them. Again thanks
Great review! Thanks. Especially found the comparison between Combining and Ultimate to be very helpful.
Ouuuu, these are out already?! Got to get on the ball!
As a child I watched Voltron, but the toys weren't available by the time I turned 5. By then Transformers had transfixed me. I am 33 years old now and have been binge-watching the new Dreamworks series on Netflix. I am a child all over again! Then I found this video, then I went out and treated myself to the Green Lion today. I plan on collecting all of them. The only thing I will say. The paint job on these toys is missing fine details that the picture on the box has. The hips of the Green lion lean slightly left or right. No in-between. There was no need for the waist joint to have the click positioning. The joints of this toy click into position which is good and tight, but I predict wear n' tear over time if given to a child. The size of these lions are fantastic! You should see the Black lion in the shop. It's huge! Can't wait to collect the rest. £20 for each Lion except the Black Lion which is £35. Worth it if you've dreamed of owning Voltron. Gonna buy paints and super thin brushes to fill in the details for my collection.
Super awesome and complete review. Gotta have it! Thanks for the review.
GoTubeKids Thanks for the kind words!
Hi
GoTubeKids
King Kong robot
Pidge sounds like Slippy from Star Fox in this.
That's flipping amazing.
the toys are so good quality! the one draw back is the voices. They don't should like any of them. Is this the old version toys?
The voices are generic voice actors, not the actual voice actors. We talked about this on our podcast interview with Jeff Trojan from Playmates Toys. The voice actors on the show are union actors, which would cost a great deal for Playmates Toys, and delay the production of the toys. This is a normal practice for many toy manufacturers to use generic voices in electronic toys.
Amanda Rivera no
Japanese toys do not have this problem, specially in toy-related shows such as Kamen Rider and Super Sentai.
I had to rewrite mine with an arduino using cartoon samples
Lets Voltron they are not the real voice actors
I like this design more than the classic. And the articulation seems satisfactory. Wish Bandai Chogokin would remake this to be more show accurate as they did the classic.
I might start collecting these next weekend,or hopefully soon.and also,good video! And real quick, I want to show you the way I will get the legendary lions. Black,green,red,blue,yellow.
front hips... YOU MEAN SHOULDERS!!! Cats have shoulder blades. but no collar bones.
Jim Bones I never studied robot lion anatomy. :)
I know you being logical but is is a robot
It’s a toy
I can tell you study bones because of your user
if i gave a like for every time you said "ratcheting joints" you would have a lot of likes!
But you can only like the video once
@@Kodaiva r/woosh
the repetition is real!
Also "Legendary"
Greattoy
The missing paint is nothing you can't fix yourself. Looks very cool, I wish they weren't so expensive. I was wondering if they had actual transforming lions, the stores here only have the Basic figures so I didn't even know these existed until I saw your video.
Was I the only one that was humming the Voltron theme while the guy was connecting the lions? -It takes about as long for it to transform here as in the show...- oops I didn't say that out loud
I almost lost the speeders when I opened my red and blue lion cried a bit and then realised I'm stepping on it
Who the fuck is ryan seaman
Yuri is my S U C C wut
Sooooo wonderfully done and the ending was very funny haha~
Mildly disappointed Hunk doesn't yell "I'm a leg!" when you connect the yellow lion.
Beautiful review! I am looking forward to getting all lions myself ^^ tysvm for creating. Most excellent job on this review.
I have the Legendary lions version. I almost bought the basic set thinking they can combine, found out that was the Legendary set. When I got the Legendary set, my blue lion doesn't click to the black lions leg but yellow does, blue easily gets stuck to the black lion leg, red and green take a lot of force to remove. I had a heck of a time removing all 5 lions from their own boxes. Black, green, yellow, red lions I could easily find at my Walmart, Blue lion I had to order online. Now my problem is where to put the 16" Voltron when the lions are combined, the lions can easily set on my self when they separated but having a tall ass 16" Voltron just looks cool.
Awesome toy. Ultimate version is more show accurate but in order to get a transforming version they did a pretty good job. The only issue I have with this guy would be the proportions, stability and clumsy articulation. But that's just me nitpicking :)
Super Cool Figures !!!! Plus THEYRE COMBINING !!!!!!! Must to say is: Sulit na Sulit Ito Grabe :D XD
Been on a bit of a Voltron binge lately and just finished watching a bunch of reviews of classic DotU Voltrons and finally this, and this one beats out even the huge money DotU combiners. There's just a lot of articulation and pleasing fit and proportions here that even the modern retools of GoLion lack. I hope the old school design gets a toy that matches this level of quality eventually, but for now, even though it hurts my nostalgia bone, this is the one I want.
I despise the plainness of the sword, but that's the cartoon's fault, not the toy's.
Haha! That ending with the transformer! 😂
The ending made me laugh so much, i loved it. Thanks for this relaxing review. Love your new subscriber.
Very great review ! I was lucky enough to find all the Lions at the thriftstore and this video was perfect to learn all the functions and how to put the voltron together.
I agree 👍. Just picked up two of these for $20 a piece at a local yard sale and this video helped alot and stopped me from breaking them lol. Really brought brought back the memories from my childhood.
I want this SOOOOO dang bad. Looks cool and has awesome playability
I’ve never heard more legendary in a video before
Pidge's voice is the only one that seems to match the voice from the actual show lmfao
I subscribed immediately because of your name and I knew this whole channel would probably be all about voltron
It’s not just you, the green lion is the hardest to get off (and on) Voltron. I just got this set today and it’s great!
Keep up the awesome content!
Awesome review I think I will pick up these lions
I like Voltron a lot and I watch it almost every day and lions are my favorite cat species and the lion is the king of Africa

*cRying* This review is so great! The detail is on point! I need these in my life. I'm about to turn 14 so I hope my mom gets me them XD
Voltron always my favorite.. i had a red lion and yellow when i was 10 years old and i wanted the other lions .. and really good that still theres voltron toys
if anyone else is having trouble detaching the arms, I can confirm that tricks he just mentioned/used actually work. just be careful.
absolutely amazing toy. this would be a dream for any kid to have all of them.
This looks awesome👍😎👍
Back in the eighties and early nineties, toys with recorded voices sounded like rocks grating on concrete.
Im crying....i need this now.
i just picked my set this past weekend
these things are hard to find at their MSRP... I only have the Black Lion as of now
That's one of the coolest toys I have ever seen !
cool as they look I miss my diecast lions i had as a kid i'd buy these lions if they come out with a diecast set like transformers did for there anniversary
LOOOOL! No one can take the transformer down!
Call the Black Lion!
Take a shot every time he says “Ratcheting”
For people who looking for the whole set. Mostly Toys R Us is carrying the box set for $100. It the same figures as he showing the video. You will need to call Toys R us because they don't have them listed on the website. I don't think Walmart and Target will not carry them due to fact that they won't be able to sell single pack. I have single packs plus the whole set box. The box set look really awesome.
i want to collect them. i saw the box set at toys r us today. i know it is cheaper than buying them all individually. would they be more desirable individually later on the years or all in one box set. i don't mind the price i just want what will be worth more later on... lol
As right now the single packs are everywhere Walmart, Target, Toy R Us, etc. The box set so far I seen only at Toy R Us. I like the box set to me it a fair deal.
+teamprojects13 I noticed all the box voltron sets at toyrsus have sloppier paint jobs than the single packaged ones.
Depends the one I have match same as the single pack. If you want prefect than I would recommend die-cast ones.
I would love it if you got the wings of the black lion as well
I bought the classic 84 version. So much fun.
Bruh Shiro Why is he soo impressed to even say the blam blam blam sound and now a kitty cat
15:02 *black lion's leg go into the yellow lion's behind*
Hunk: "Are you sure we should do this?"
Im gonna think ratcheting joints when ever my nephew is playing with this
Damn the whole show is recorded in there!
My favorite part is when he shot those want to be Power Rangers
nice, soul of chogokin quality and then some, I'm a fan of the original Golion/Voltron series but I prefer the current toy
I never seen the show and I still want it.
I thought this was a review,not a documentary!
Thing is, lance’s canon is not an ice beam canon. Its a sonic canon (blasts vibrations)
And Keiths canon is not a magma canon. Its a Rail gun. (Blasts up to 3 lasers at a time)
Their Ice and Magma canons come from their jaws.
The Yellow Lion's blue discs reminds me of the one Hunk made and broke his teeth with...
Here is a cool drinking game: Take a shot every time he says "Ratchet" or any variation of the word.
All of the Lions except black are $21.99 at Toys r us.
Thanks for this vid
It inspired me to get it! Lucky for me they had a pack that had all lions so I didn’t have to go digging for all of them
I watched another review about this toy and disapointed me but now that watched this review I am sure i wanta to buy it
We think you would love it!
I got cheated by a voltron toy that should have combined but it didn't and I was ticked off! Good to see that there is one that combines and the advertisement wasn't total lies.
I could tell you were the tiniest bit upset that the power rangers megazord (I think?) wasn't falling down. Great Review tho!
i will die a happy man if i can find all five, they are super hard to get right now.
V
is still l watch this series i didn’t know there where 5 lions i’m might get them and form Voltron myself thank-you 🤩
Bru
This is probably one of the coolest toys I've ever seen.
These are my favorite toy ever
that version of voltron is sick
Great review
But it does have something unique: ElEcTrOnIcS! :D
to watch another video press the box to your right
Nice reference to Voltron's win in Death Battle at 4:26!
also I've never watched voltron but i would buy these. they look awesome
