In this video review I take a look at both Playmate's versions of 16'' Tall Voltron the 84 Classic and the new NETFLIX Legendary Defender side by side. Now on clearance at Target Walmart and Meijer
Those who think that these are the originals, we should clarify and emphasize that these are the Playmates 84 Classic remakes based off the originals. I have the originals, and they were die-cast metal with chrome legs (and heavy) . They all shot either missiles or their heads (green and red), but later versions removed the projectiles due to safety concerns. I guess too many kids shot their eyes out. Lol. Nice vid! 👍🏼
Oh boy, don't I know it! I had him as a child. Me and my brothers used to play with him, which consisted of throwing the lions at each other. To this day, I'm very happy that I didn't brain my damage
I truly truly appreciate that more than you can know. Years ago I was harassed by viewer that was being low key racist. And this person kept referring to my hands being black. I immediately caught on and blocked the person and they created multiple accounts and continued to try to harass me but it spurred me on to continued to make video's. So again I really appreciate you watching and commenting thanks so much!
Pidge: "I'd be hurt if you didn't ask." The 80's Transformers Fan: "Another reason why I don't like Pidge." LOL! Great video Sir! Happened upon it (Voltron fan, here) and I really enjoyed it.
I love both of these figures and I should had gotten the Netflix version sooner and this 84 version as well. Oh well, still these are a collectible to be had :) Great review too, keep it up :)
Along with the lions rotation for the head, the thought of a crossover where Voltron meets Transformers, along with aiding Autobots, they fight the deceptions combiners, but that's just me.
The legendary black lion comes with a shield. Do ypu see the wings, try to pull it and then you got the shield. But... you need to make a homemade connector for that two wings to make a shield
@@80sTransfromersFan I have the Lego version of the Classic 84 Voltron trying to decide on whether to get had the Legendary (Netflix) version as well. I think I will now but the original or the Hyper-Phase (SDCC 2018)? Hmmm...
The 80's Transformers Fan Since I am currently Watching the Netflix Voltron Legendary Defender I’m going to pick that one. I do love your old school Voltron though. You are right about the sword, it should have been huge and metallic.
People always say that , but I actually show my face a lot. Check out my channel update videos or my toy hunting videos. And especially when I review really big toys that require me to get out of the chair 😁
You made a good point about no robeast....but I don't think they ever produced a truly cartoo6 accurate voltron...they made optimus prime and did well...even unicron...but for some reason voltron us extremely hard and it's because he was so much more flexible that the other robots...the toys just seem blocky...but each generation gets better with more cartoon details.
@@80sTransfromersFan the one that talks... I currently have 2. 1981 versions. One is the diamond belt version. I also have the the vehicle version. These are cool too
