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.

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.

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.
