Let's Voltron: The Official Voltron Podcast

On September 24, 2024, Mattel Creations and Fisher-Price bring you the Little People Collector Exclusive Gold Label Voltron 40th Anniversary Set. Marc and Greg are honored to have Giorgio Cavalli (Global Brand Marketing) and Jon Pastura (Product Design) from Little People Collector to share the news of this launch on the MattelCreations.com website. YOU can WIN a set for yourself by commenting on our YouTube video, and we'll pick a random winner from all the comments and the winner will be announced on our next podcast. To commemorate 40 years of Voltron, we’ve created a buildable set featuring the five original defenders: Keith, Lance, Pidge, Hunk, and Princess Allura. All of our space explorer figures wear helmets with a metallic finish and clear visors (except Pidge who needed room for his glasses!). They’re packaged in individual lions that can be assembled to form the mighty robot Voltron to defend the universe. King Zarkon and his nasty Robeasts stand no chance.
