    Yes.

    There'll be new toys from Mattel for "Voltron Force" later this year. I believe they'll be unveiled at the San Diego Comi-Con. Mattel are also going to release some Voltron toys based on the original series as well.

    Really? - Excellent!

    I hope they end up being quite decent in 'Action Figure' form and yeah, I really can't wait for that Diecast, 2ft Tall, Proper Gestalt Lion Force Voltron from Matty to be released!
    (I'd really like to see some pictures of either set, and soon! )

    I still have my Bandai lion force Voltron from the 80's. The chrome has peeled and black lion's wings are damaged but he's mostly die-cast metal (a lost art...)

    Agreed.
    Whilst my childhood example left my possession long ago, I have the Panosh Place Lion Force Voltron in damn near completion, so adding a Die-cast one of equal to, or grander, stature would be very nice indeed.

    So, has anyone checked out "Voltron Force" yet?

    I just finished watching the first three eps and was terribly unimpressed with it. Don't think I'm going to bother with much more episodes.

    i already knew it was going to be bad after watching the behind the scenes video that i shared in the first post.

    i've also watched 3eps and everything was terrible but mostly i just hate how these adults need the help of kids... but amazingly the 3 kids aren't useless like those 3 kids in Transformers Prime.

    i will probably watch a few more eps because i think i must like hurting myself?

    Just bumping this thread back up for anyone that's interested...

    "Voltron Force" starts airing in Australia this Sunday on ABC 3 at 6:40am.

    And for anyone that has hearing problems like me, looks like the series will be broadcast with closed captions.

    ABC apparently also have the broadcast rights to the original series and should be airing it soon. I'm told it could start airing as soon as this month or next. I'll post airdate details once I find out.


    EDIT: Forgot to mention that the first 6 eps of "Voltron Force" series is coming out locally on DVD next month.
