From days of long ago, from uncharted regions of the universe, comes a legend. The legend of Voltron: Defender of the Universe! A mighty robot, loved by good, feared by evil. A force of space explorers, Kieth, Lance, Hunk, Pidge, and Sven are sent to find the last princess of planet Arus, Allura, and the keys to Voltron. Together they find the five robot lions that make up the legendary robot. King Zarkon, an evil warlord, rains down destruction across the universe. But our heroes form Voltron at the last moment, and begin a new war against his cruel empire.
Yes, this show is one of several anime series brought over in the 80s and completely hacked for american TV...but oh the childhood memories. Following AnimeOnDVD's cue, I decided to file it under the anime category in homage to its roots. Oh, and it comes in a nifty collector's tin featuring the Blue Lion.
