VOLTRON DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE ALL TINS SERIES

Pidge is the youngest, smartest, and smallest of the group unfortunately, his high-pitched voice in the original series also makes him the most hated of the group as well. Despite that heavy background, Lance remains the ever faithfully funny man on the team. His stint with the Voltron Team is a result of his criminal record, as he was recruited as a way to avoid his five-year sentence in prison. The comics add some more depth to Lance’s otherwise simple wise-guy routine, revealing him to be a childhood daredevil and drag racer turned criminal, if only because of something petty he did while in the Navy. He has a knack for being able to tell other’s lies and dishonest actions and is always willing to call Keith out on his more ridiculous commands. He’s sarcastic, a little hot-headed, and the ace flyer of the team. The goofy second in command of Voltron, Lance pilots the Red Lion that forms the right arm of Voltron. Although he steps down from the team to serve Arus as its king, he takes dips back in to lead Team Voltron when the going gets tough.

Near the end of the series, it’s revealed that Keith is of Arusian descent, conveniently intersecting with his interest in Princess Allura of Arus. However, due to the old leader’s issues with addiction, Keith rose to the occasion and was made a commanding officer. This is because he was not the initial leader of the Voltron Force at the very beginning of the series, he piloted the Red Lion, hence his red uniform. Keith is quiet and introspective, spending most of his time thinking about his duties and responsibilities as a leader. His leader status is conveyed by the fact that his lion makes up the head and torso of Voltron’s final form. The pilot of the Black Lion, Keith Kogane is the commanding officer of the Voltron Force.

Here are the characters that persisted throughout the entire show. While the original Japanese series split the Voltron story into three arcs, the American series ran them all as one show. The ’80s run of Voltron was adapted from a Japanese mecha anime series called Beast King Golion. To break down the characters, we focused on the characters from the original ‘80s show Voltron: Defender of the Universe and the characters from the most recent reboot, Voltron: Legendary Defender. If you didn’t play with the Voltron lions and other Voltron toys as a kid, you missed out.Įach reboot of Voltron introduced its nuances and quirks into the show’s basic premise of big Voltron lions turn into an even bigger humanoid robot. The franchise had about five animated reboots, a rumored live-action movie, a slew of comic series, and of course an array of Voltron toys that you can combine into one giant, even cooler Voltron toy. Oh Voltron: A show that combined the aesthetics of the Power Rangers, Transformers, and Thundercats all into one, it’s also a show that has irreparably impacted the lives of many kids growing up in the ’80s even if the only thing they remember is Voltron, the titular super robot itself.
