Our Voltron friends, Dana, Rye and Todd join Marc and Greg to review the first episode of Season 8 of Voltron Legendary Defender, Launch Date. Dana, who lives in Tennessee, recently had lost all of her possessions in a fire at her family's home. This was a devastating loss for Dana. Here are some pictures of the house after the fire and the area that used to be Dana's bedroom: There is a GoFundMe page setup to help support Dana's family and their efforts to recover from this tragedy with their most immediate needs. They have not reached the GoFundMe goal yet, so please provide help if you can to a very special Voltron fan and her family at this link: https://www.gofundme.com/support-lewis-and-missy-hall Dana's best friend, Rye, who lives in South Carolina, knew that Dana had lost a lot of personal items with sentimental value, including a lot of art, signed posters and other special items she had bought at various conventions that Rye and Dana attended together over the years. One item, in particular, was a Voltron poster that Dana had signed by many of the voice actors and crew from Voltron Legendary Defender that she had collected at several conventions. Rye, without Dana knowing, had reached out to us on Twitter DM and asked if there was any way to connect with DreamWorks Animation to see if there was a way to get something signed and sent to Dana. We contacted Seth Fowler at DreamWorks PR, letting him know about the fire that destroyed Dana's signed poster, and asked if they could help Rye get something signed for her friend, Dana. It just so happened that THAT very night, the DreamWorks Animation group had planned a cast and crew party to celebrate the final season of Voltron Legendary Defender. Within a week, a signed poster of the combined lithographs of all the Voltron Legendary Defender characters, which was signed by Joaquim Dos Santos, Lauren Montgomery, Josh Keaton, Kimberly Brooks, Neil Kaplan, AJ LoCascio, and more of the cast and crew that were at the party that night, was on its way to Dana's boyfriend's house, where Dana was staying. Rye had given the address to Seth so it would be a surprise to Dana. Here are the pictures Dana shared on Twitter when she received that package: A huge THANK YOU to DreamWorks, the cast and crew of Voltron Legendary Defender, and everyone involved in getting this signed poster to Dana. And of course, this would have never been possible without Rye, who not only initiated the communication to get her best friend something that meant a lot to her, but introduced Dana to Voltron Legendary Defender in the first place. You'll hear all of these stories and more, as Dana and Rye joined us to help review Launch Date, the first episode of Season 8 of Voltron Legendary Defender on Netflix. Dana is on Twitter: @danahall26 Rye is on Twitter: @yauilla Todd Matthy also joined us for this episode review podcast. Todd has been on the podcast previously, as well. Todd had been involved in the MediaBlasters DVD set for Voltron: Defender of the Universe, back in 2006. Todd is on Twitter: @ToddCMatthy Todd is also the creator of Robots vs. Princesses, a full-color comic book series. "Princess Zara wants to find a baby dragon. Instead she finds a giant robot.

Shannon Muir joins us to review the final episode of Season 5 of Voltron Legendary Defender: White Lion. As we prepare for the launch of Season 6 on Netflix, we review the Season 6 trailer and some images that have been released from DreamWorks Animation. Shannon Muir has been on the podcast several times before, but for those of you who are hearing her on the podcast for the first time, here's a little bit about her writing: Shannon was originally a guest on the podcast for our 2-Part look at Voltron: The Third Dimension. She has provided some insight into people that have a direct connection with this show at DreamWorks Animation and WEP, from days of long ago. Shannon also wrote a Tumblr page article with her full review, which is now supplemented by her insight provided here on the podcast. You can check out her Tumblr article here: http://www.animatedinsights.com/ The Season 6 Trailer was released last Tuesday, June 5, 2018. And it immediately became the most shared trailer of all of the Voltron Legendary Defender Seasons. In addition to the trailer, several images were released by DreamWorks Animation for Season 6. We talk about the trailer and these images in this podcast. Here (below) is the link to the trailer and some of those images: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMRvbPZUILs Here are some screenshots from Episode 6 of Season 5 of Voltron Legendary Defender: White Lion: Next Friday, June 15, 2018, Season 6 of Voltron Legendary Defender launches on Netflix at 12 AM PDT.

ようこそ to our Japanese Celebration of Voltron! In this podcast, we talk to 3 fans of Voltron Legendary Defender who give us the Japanese perspective (Unky, Kalai, and Hikawa), and what it's like to be a Voltron fan in Japan. We play a clip from the Japanese-dubbed version of Voltron Legendary Defender and give credit to those Japanese actors. For our Retro Voltron Segment, we give credit to the original actors of Beast King GoLion from 1981. A BIG ありがとうございました to all our Japanese listeners! This podcast is for you! We want to thank our special guests, Unky, Kalai, and Hikawa, for joining us on this podcast!

At the beginning, we feature the original theme for Beast King GoLion (1981) and at the end, we feature the original theme for Armored Fleet Dairugger XV (1982). These were the two Japanese shows from Toei Animation that were used to create the Lion Force and Vehicle Force episodes of Voltron: Defender of the Universe in 1984. We hope you enjoyed our Japanese Celebration of Voltron! Next week, we're going to the land Down Under (Australia) to talk to Adam O'Brien and have him help us review the Voltron Legendary Defender episode, Bloodlines, from Season 5. As Always, Thanks for Listening! Let's Voltron!!

AJ LoCascio joins Marc and Greg for a highly anticipated fun discussion about Lotor in Season 5 of Voltron Legendary Defender, where he answers questions from Voltron fans around the world. We also talk about the history of voice actors who have played Lotor in our Retro Voltron segment. AJ LoCascio won over many fans of Voltron Legendary Defender with his performance as Lotor (now Emperor Lotor) in Season 5 on Netflix. Lotor has come a long way since he first appeared in Season 3, and AJ LoCascio goes in deep to answer many of the questions that fans submitted for this super-long podcast interview. In this podcast, we talk about the new Bandai Super Mini Pla Beast King GoLion Product Features: Some parts will be plated. It includes: Black Lion, Red Lion, Green Lion, Blue Lion, and Yellow Lion. Height Approximately 7.1" Tall Batman Ninja is a new anime film available on Digital HD, Blu-ray and DVD. It features giant robot transformations, which are heavily influenced by Voltron and other giant mech properties from Japan. Marc created a new video in our Let's Voltron YouTube Channel, which syncs the Lord Joker transformation sequence from Batman Ninja with the Voltron Legendary Defender transformation theme music, and you can be the judge to see if it's a perfect mashup or not. Here is the link to the video: https://youtu.be/fyw8jPrv4vs As always, Thanks for Listening! Let's Voltron!!

We appreciate everything Voltron, and although Voltron Legendary Defender is the freshest Voltron out there (100% on Rotten Tomatoes), we want to share something from Days of Long Ago or maybe not so long ago, with respect to Voltron. This segment will share our thoughts on something cool and interesting from the Voltron Universe. In this podcast, we talk about how different the first episode of Beast King GoLion is compared to that episode edited for Voltron: Defender of the Universe when it first aired in 1984. The stories for the Japanese GoLion are vastly different from the American Voltron, despite using most of the same animation. Hear Greg and Marc's thoughts about these in this podcast. As Always, Thanks for Listening! Let's Voltron!!

Dan is proud to announce some things he can actually talk about: For comic books, Dan co-wrote “LARP!” from Dark Horse Comics with Shawn deLoache. The first issue is available here: https://www.darkhorse.com/Books/24-368/LARP-Volume-1-TPB Dan is writing a 3-novel trilogy, all original, called The Gray Widow Trilogy.

Marc Morrell and Dan Jolley review 4 more episodes (13-16) from Voltron: Defender of the Universe (Lion Force). Dan keeps us up to date on his career, and Marc talks about the 30th Anniversary Book and panel at New York Comic Con, as well as book signings and interviews. If you recall, we haven't reviewed the Original Series Voltron Episodes since Podcast #22. We finished reviewing Episode 12 during that podcast. So, this podcast episode covers the following Original Series Voltron episodes (Beast King GoLion episode titles in parenthesis): #13 – The Witch Gets a Facelift (Introducing Beautiful Honerva) #14 – Yurak Gets His Pink Slip (The Crown Prince of Hell) #15 – Give Me Your Princess (Overcome the Phantom of Shirogane) #16 – Bridge Over the River Chozzerai (The Legendary Bridge of Love) Listen as Marc brings back Dan Jolley, our special guest from Podcast #7, to discuss the differences between the Voltron and GoLion versions of these 4 episodes. This story arc sees the exit of Commander Yurak and the entrance of Prince Lotor, who takes over as the Commander in Chief of the Drule Forces on Planet Doom. Lotor also has a strong infatuation with Princess Allura that is a continuous theme throughout the rest of the series. Marc also talks about the 30th Anniversary Book, which is being released to stores everywhere on Tuesday, October 28. If you haven't pre-ordered it, you can pick up a copy on Tuesday, wherever books are sold. Online, you can also purchase the Kindle, e-book, Nook, and other digital versions of the book through Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Google Play, and other retail sites. Thanks for listening!

Marc Morrell and Special Guest Host Dan Jolley review 4 more episodes from the Original Lion Force Voltron Series, where they provide comparisons with the GoLion episodes from which these Voltron episodes were made. Dan provides a unique perspective, since he has watched these episodes as a fan when he was a kid, then watched these episodes as an adult writer, and had to research these episodes again as a writer of Voltron Comics for Devil's Due Publishing. If you recall, we haven't reviewed the Original Series Voltron Episodes since Podcast #15. We finished reviewing Episode 8 The Stolen Lion (Stolen Blue Lion) during that podcast. So, this podcast episode covers the following Original Series Voltron episodes (Beast King GoLion episode titles in parenthesis): 9 – A Pretty Spy (Girl of the Land of Evil) 10 – Secret of the White Lion (Curse of the White Lion) 11 - Surrender (Red Rain of Hell) 12 - Bad Birthday Party (Evil Doings of the Emperor) Listen as Marc brings back Dan Jolley, our special guest from Podcast #7, to discuss the differences between the Voltron and GoLion versions of these 4 episodes. This story arc shows that Princess Allura is still unsure of herself in her role on the team. It also shows that Voltron is not always the one who saves the day. Marc closes out the episode with a preview of upcoming episodes, including a surprise episode from San Diego Comic-Con, a Vehicle Voltron episode, and possibly, an interview with one of the voice actors from the original Voltron Series. Thanks for listening!

The Original Voltron: Defender of the Universe TV Episodes are reviewed once more in this episode of Let’s Voltron: The Official Voltron Podcast. In this episode, Marc and Mike finish reviewing V:DotU, Episode 4: The Missing Key, where Voltron forms for the 1st time. Then, we continue reviewing episodes up to and including Episode 8: The Stolen Lion. Before Marc and Mike talk about the episodes, Mike lets us know that the first wave of Toynami 30th Anniversary Voltron Pre-Orders have shipped, and Marc gives an account of receiving it and opening it with his son, Lucas. This really is a great Collectors Set to own, and whether you preserve it as a collectible or take it out of the box and play with it (which we recommend!), you will marvel at the quality of the craftsmanship that George Sohn and everyone at Toynami have put into this 30th Anniversary Die-Cast Voltron. If you still haven’t ordered one yet, here is a link to it at the Voltron Store. Mike also reports that Issue #3 of the Robotech/Voltron Crossover Comic Series has been released, and WEP is offering a 3-issue bundle. If you recall, Marc and Mike stopped reviewing Episode 4: The Missing Key in Podcast Episode #6 (We’re Space Explorers) just before the Voltron Force formed Voltron for the 1st time. So, this podcast episode covers the following episodes (Beast King GoLion episode titles in parenthesis): 4 -- The Missing Key (Resurrection of the Legendary Giant) 5 -- The Princess Joins Up (Fortress for the New Struggle) 6 -- The Right Arm of Voltron (Death of Shirogane the Hero) 7 -- The Lion Has New Claws (The Beautiful Princess' Battle) 8 -- The Stolen Lion (Stolen Blue Lion) Listen as we discuss the precarious situation of the Voltron Force’s struggle to defend Arus with Voltron, only to lose one of their own, and have the Princess step up to join the team. This story arc has many key elements that carry the series forward and establishes precedents for future episodes. Marc closes out the episode with a special announcement for next week’s episode of the podcast: Franklin Cofod, the Director, Producer, and Showrunner for the Original Voltron Series run from 1984-1986, will be our special guest for an extended interview that will cover a wealth of Voltron information that you will hear NOWHERE else. This will cover the next 2 episodes of the podcast. So, what have you always wanted to know about the original series that is still unknown? What questions do you have for Franklin Cofod? You have until Monday, May 12, at 6 PM EDT to get your questions in. Respond in the comments on this notes page, or call 860-4MULLET and leave a voicemail question, or send us an email at letsvoltronpodcast@gmail.com. Be a part of one of the most comprehensive interviews you will ever hear about Voltron! Send us your questions NOW! Thanks for listening!

This episode of Let’s Voltron continues our conversation with Bob Koplar, the Vice President of World Events Productions. In Part 2, Bob answers all the fan questions and thanks the fans for their support for the last 30 years. If you were ever curious if there will ever be Voltron Force toys, based on the Nicktoons cartoon, Bob gives us the FINAL word on that subject. If you wondered what DreamWorks’ acquisition of Classic Media will mean for the Voltron franchise, Bob gives us some insight into what WEP knows at this point. If you wanted to know what conventions WEP will be attending to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Voltron, Bob lets us know where they will be this year. If you want to know more about Beast King GoLion, the original Japanese cartoon that Voltron was derived from, then you will hear Bob talk about that in this episode. If you had submitted a question that was not asked during this episode, we apologize if we could not include it this time around. There will be many more guests coming on the podcast this year, and there are many more opportunities to submit questions. So, keep trying, and we’ll make sure to include your questions. We want to thank Bob Koplar for being our special guest, and for everything that WEP has done over the last 30 years since Voltron entered our lives and became such a lasting memory. We are looking forward to seeing more Voltron in the future. Don’t forget, Wizard World St. Louis Comic Con is this weekend, April 4-6, in St. Louis. We are looking forward to talking about the convention and the response from Voltron fans that are attending from all over. Thanks for listening!

This episode is exciting for our hosts, Mike French and Marc Morrell, because they finally get to talk about the original series in detail, starting with the first 4 episodes, out of 52, in the Lion Force Series. As an added bonus, Mike French gives the Beast King GoLion perspective as we go through the episodes. Space Explorers Captured Escape to Another Planet A Ghost and 4 Keys The Missing Key Before they discuss these episodes, Mike prepares the listeners to be on the lookout for the 2nd Issue of the Robotech/Voltron Crossover Comic Series, due out later this month. The 3rd issue cover has already been teased through Facebook and Twitter. Marc announces the “Challenge the Chee” selection for our resident podcast artist, Chee-Toy. Our superfan listener, Cryoflyte, posted this suggestion that our hosts have chosen: @LetsVoltron @Chee_toy @Voltron ooh ooh...the space explorers taking on that robeast they never got to fight in the arena! #ChallengeTheChee— Cryoflyte (@Skechek) January 29, 2014 Our hosts wanted to see an image of the fight between the Space Explorers and the Blue Robeast, so when Chee-Toy is finished, she will post that to the Let’s Voltron Facebook Page. Thanks, Chee-Toy, and thanks to Cryoflyte for the great suggestion! Thanks for listening!

In this first full episode of the Let's Voltron Podcast for 2014, Marc is joined by Mike French once again, and the discussion is a chronological History of Voltron Toys, from the era preceeding the 1984 launch of the Original Voltron Series to The Present. Mike French is the administrator of the Official Voltron Facebook and Twitter accounts. He also runs the retroblasting.com website, which includes a video channel, where you can see reviews of movies, cartoons, and toys from the 80's. In this episode, Mike talks about his interactions with the Voltron fans, now that he has been the administrator of the Official Voltron Facebook and Twitter accounts, since the new year began. Marc tells the listeners about the email address for the Let's Voltron Podcast, which is: letsvoltronpodcast@gmail.com Feel free to send us an email, and we'll put you on the list for notifications when we post a new episode, and possibly a future newsletter. Marc and Mike spent the rest of the episode talking about the History of Voltron Toys, in chronological order, starting in the early 80's, when the first Beast King GoLion and Dairugger toys were available from Popy in Japan. One of the toys we mentioned was the LJN Giant Voltron Commander Radio Controlled Robot. We talked about a commercial that promoted that toy, and here is a link to that 30-second blast from the past. If you follow the links from that one, you'll see there is a whole page of old Voltron commercials available to view. I'd say commercials have come a long way since then. We didn't mention it in the Podcast, but it has just been announced that the 30th Anniversary Voltron Collector's Set from Toynami will be available on April 30. That news broke here. You can still pre-order that set here. We also mentioned in the podcast that we would provide you with links for some of the Voltron Toy Archives that have been available on the web for fans of all the toys mentioned in this episode. Here are those links: http://www.action-figures.ca/voltron.htm http://www.virtualtoychest.com/voltron/voltron.html http://www.collectiondx.com/voltrontoys Thanks for listening!
