You think I wouldn't start this thread?

Just a place holder until we need to start talking about it specifically.

Lego Stores got it's database updated with 21311 set which is Voltron and the price for this is rather hefty because it's set in Polish S&H for 829.99PLN which is eq of 179.99EUR and 169GBP.
Don't you think it's rather expensive not to say a "rip off"?
So The Adventure Time v2.0 in Europe is coming apparently in the set named VOLTRON.

look at this set and think it's 179.99 EUR
then look again...
 

179.99EUR.

That's not the final product I guess? Any word on the piece count?

not much at the moment, the position was created over the weekend in database.
anyway I'm not the target of this set so I have no anticipation to dive further into this.
but the price for this set is going to be steep.

I think you are exactly the target.  A lot of kids never heard of Voltron.

Apparently some Lego stores got an update in their database. Set looks to be huge! 179.99 EU /199.00 USD.

To an old geek like me, the set looks great.

In for two. 

No way I’m not having the Lions in formation around a completed Voltron.

There's a new series on Netflix. Actually pretty good

My kids and I watch it. We like it. There’s a ton of Voltron merch on the shelves right now.

So much for my knowledge of TV.  Then again, only You Tube and the XBOX is on my TV.

 

Love Voltron, had no idea they were doing this.  I keep holding out hope for a Live Action someday.

I would probably die if that happened.

my 5 year old son's jaw dropped when I showed him the pic from Shewie's post.

not exactly the best representation of Voltron in Lego form imo, but I suppose it's considerably more difficult when you have to make the lions assemble to form Voltron...

Pfft

I had the two on the left myself.  I tried to recreate them in LEGO bricks...but failed!

Any thoughts when official pictures will be out?

good times

 

The grandaddy of them all: Voltes V !!

The storyline had great stuffs: sibling rivalries, teamwork, giant mecha, tech based enemy, even RACISM, all in 40x 1/2 hour episodes for kids

(30+ years later and I still remember the ending )

 Getter Dragon,

When I was young I thought Getter Robo & Getter Robo G storylines were too adult for kids.  I probably need to re-watch a few episodes to see if my younger self was right
