"Received my advanced copy of this, the 6th volume of the Voltron animated series today and have been enjoying every moment of this collection. While much debate exists as to which version of Voltron was superior, in truth the source material was actually two entirely separate Japanese series. WEP, through some slick editing, was able to turn Dairugger XV into what we now know as Vehicle Voltron back in the mid 1980s. This DVD set represents the first foray of the Voltron franchise devoted exclusively to Vehicle Voltron.



When compared to the original incarnation, Vehichle Voltron strays a but farther from the fantasy roots of GoLion (Lion Force here in the States) in favor of a more science-fiction based approach. The visual quality and presentation is easily on par with WEP's volume 1-5 releases with the Air Team (Strato Fighter) gracing the cover.



Included on this set is the following:

Episodes 73-90 of the series (450 minutes total run time)

Remastered film transfer from the original 35mm stock

5.1 Surround Sound Mix

The Vehichle Voltron pilot

Featurette: Vehicle Voltron Fans Unite

Team Up Clips

Full episode synopsis with original air dates



While this box set is surrounded by enthusiasm as it represents the first DVD release devoted entitrely to Vehichle Voltron, WEP isn't letting the dust settle for long before following up with the next box, Volume 7 which is set to be released on January, 13 2009. Like Volume 6, this will be another Vehicle Voltron exclusive set with The Land Team (Turbo Terrain Fighter) on the cover. Can't wait!"

"Love it! Love it! Love it! Before the cheesy Power Rangers, there was Voltron Defender of the Universe. Can't wait to collect the remaining volumes. This is one of the top cartoons of the 80's."
