LEGO Ideas: Voltron (Hard to Find) - 2321 Pieces (21311)

And I'm not even slightly ashamed. When I was a kid in the 80s, I basically lusted after this glorious two-foot tall metal and plastic Voltron set. Like some golden altar of awesomeness, it was the pinnacle of toys from the era. Sure, Transformers and Zoids were great, but this... five lions that turned into one giant sword wielding robot... Dreamy, I never got it. It was absurdly expensive (more in adjusted dollars I'd wager than this Lego kit) and something something something about not having that kind of money ensued. Now, as a grown-up clearly permanently emotionally scarred by the lack of that Voltron, I have come full circle. I have attained a comparable Voltron and therefore, my 12-year-old self is no longer completely and utterly ashamed of me.

I remember watching Voltron as a kid - every single episode, glued to the TV! I also love Legos (yes, I know this isn't "Lego" but you get my point). Put the two together and wham! Instant fun! This set is great fun. Lots of pieces, good instructions, awesome final product. I definitely recommend - try building it with your kids, you'll have a a blast!

Watched Voltron when I was a kid. This set brought back childhood memories. Glad I bought it as I am having super fun putting it together. I'm taking my time with it so that it doesn't end. Haha
