Re: SSC Voltron: Defenders of the Universe Maquette

To be honest, I was a little skeptical about the changes to the design in this Sideshow version of Voltron when I first saw it, however it does grow on you and looks very detailed. As realistic as a statue should. I am however more disappointed in the new cartoon even though the animation and acting is pretty awesome for what it is however to me something is just missing and I knew right away what it was. The Voltron theme song is simply not there in any form and even though that is not a big deal to most, it is a huge part of what makes the show special to me. Furthermore, this was the major complaint in the last reboot for which they corrected a little too late in the season. Voltron to me is not Voltron without the famous song playing when Voltron forms. I guess what I'll have to do is edit the entire series in i-movie just for myself adding the song and the old intro :) I know I will enjoy the series so much better that way. As far as this Sideshow statue.

I get that. I did love the series but everytime they formed Voltron I was humming the old theme in my head and quoting the old lines "form arms and legs" etc. I am sad. LOL.

I was thinking the same thing this weekend watching. They need to bring that into this series badly. Everything else in the series is just awesome. I really do love the new form of the Lions and Voltron, a home run for Netflix.

Otherwise I'll have to keep turning up the theme music on my boombox every time they form. :)

On a final note, I don't know how much longer I can keep myself from pre ordering this guy. I agree, the SS version is growing on me everyday. Like it alot.

Do it!
 
Re: SSC Voltron: Defenders of the Universe Maquette

Why would SS give us double rewards AND $20 shipping?? Do they love us or something?
Very cool move on SS's part.
I wonder how long until they drop the 2X rewards?

It's an old jedi mind trick to jack up the price long term and hope you don't notice

Re: SSC Voltron: Defenders of the Universe Maquette

I doubt this guy is going to stay at 20 bucks shipping...

Add me to to the pile - just put down my NRD. Wasn't the biggest Voltron fan as a kid (Robotech was my favorite) but this interpretation blows me away. Watching the new Netflix series with my son made me weak with nostalgia.:slap:lol

I'm curious what the ES will come out to be on this one.

i assume it will stay at $20... making up for the price somewhat. that and the double points gets this somewhere around the $1000 mark which most kept telling sideshow they were expecting.

Totally went through the nostalgia as I binged the season on Netflix last weekend. Hoping for a longer season 2.

I can't believe how close I am to ordering this. There was no way I was going to pay the that much when this was released. Every day my will power weakens.

Agreed. I just started watching the new Voltron from Netflix and with every passing episode, my excuses not to get this statue are evaporating like crazy!
 
Re: SSC Voltron: Defenders of the Universe Maquette

Watched the first ep, man that show needs the old theme song! still pretty good tho
 
Re: SSC Voltron: Defenders of the Universe Maquette

I started selling my plasma for quick easy cash...and to help others of course. Now I do it to support my habit!! Looks like I'll be ordering Voltron soon.
 
Re: SSC Voltron: Defenders of the Universe Maquette

Looks great...maybe a tad overprice imo. Now where's my old Voltron that they tried to get me send in for a recall (lead concerns)......
 
Re: SSC Voltron: Defenders of the Universe Maquette

The plasma place where I'm from pays you $70 a week, tax free, for 2 visits about an hour each time.
