"Against enemies, a thousand eyes and ears are not enough." |
The second Voltron collection celebrates the orange-clad Hunk and his blue-eyed Yellow Lion. Inside the super neat-O tin case is another set of three DVDs on an attractive but inconvenient folding cardboard holder with a terrific illustration of Zarkon and Haggar on the back. Overall, the episodes here are substantially better than the ones on the first set. Although many of the plots employ the usual Witch Haggar Robeast formula, they don't seem quite as repetitious now thanks to the addition of Zarkon's endearingly-evil son, Lotor, and a few new planets (Pollux, Lyra and Tyrus), minor characters (Farla, Romelle and Bandor) and Voltron weapons (the Electro Saber and the Argon Force Field). Like the Blue Lion Collection, these discs contain a total of fifteen adventures, including these exciting classics:
"My Brother's a Robeast": The sinister King Kova, warmongering ruler of Planet Pollux, meets with Zarkon to request that his son, Prince Avok, be transformed into a Robeast so he can crush the indomitable Voltron. With the linking lions out of the way, Kova and Zarkon will finally be able to conquer peaceful Planet Arus and divide it between them. Since the freckle-faced Avok is Pollux's greatest warrior, his scheming father is certain that rotten old Witch Haggar can easily mold him into the most awesomely powerful monster in the galaxy. First, though, the pugnacious Prince must defeat Zarkon's white-haired son, Lotor, in the infamous fighting arena. This shouldn't be too difficult to do, as Lotor is so busy staring at the beautiful blonde in the audience that he can't keep his mind on the duel. She is Prince Avok's loyal sister, Romelle...but why does she look so much like Princess Allura?
"The Buried Castle": Three chubby children are hiking through the lush Arusian woods when a spooky old fortress mysteriously rises from the ground beyond the trees. Fearlessly, the young explorers approach the ominous structure as lightning bolts crackle in the sky. They are soon joined by Pidge and one of the Princess' colorful rodent friends. The diminutive adventurers cross the wind-whipped castle's doorstep and make their way to the treasure room. Suddenly, bony fingers pierce the creaky floorboards and seize their tiny ankles!
"The Deadly Flowers": Strange pink and yellow seed pods rain down on Arus and quickly bloom into fragrant flowers. Initially, the planet's citizens are thrilled with the vast fields of pretty posies that carpet the Arusian landscape...but they soon find themselves gasping for breath before falling flat on their faces! The only antidote for the devastating flower-bourn illness is found on Lyra, a planet known to have a strong magnetic pull that renders robotic lions inoperable. Fortunately, Lyra's mighty magnetism is neutralized by water, and the Blue Lion was specifically designed to be driven underwater. Unfortunately, Princess Allura, the Blue Lion's pilot, was among those sickened by the aromatic blossoms.
"Raid of the Alien Mice": Princess Allura wishes for peace while stargazing from her picture window in the Castle of Lions. Instead, she gets a metal-munching army of fang-faced purple space vermin, sent from Planet Doom by the haggish Witch Haggar (who else?). It's up to Chitter and his lovable pastel-painted mice pals to stop their vicious alien cousins before they gnaw through the wires that power the Voltron Force's main computer. Meanwhile, a serpent-headed Robeast with very broad shoulders has landed outside!
"Short Run of the Centipede Express": While Zarkon's multi-legged spacecraft soars threateningly through the cosmos, the intrepid Voltron Force navigates the treacherous meteorite fields surrounding Planet Moura, where Lotor's latest ultimate weapon, the Doomsday Gun, is under construction. Simultaneously, within the dark towers of Castle Doom, the lilac-skinned Prince is punishing his disobedient slaves with the help of a carnivorous alligator-man with an extra eyeball embedded in his scaly neck.
"The Treasure of Planet Tyrus": Inside a hideous skull-faced fortress on Planet Tyrus, the cleanly Witch Haggar bathes her blue feline friend in soap bubbles and tomato-red lava liquid while Prince Lotor begins his annual birthday celebration with a relaxing massage from three lovely slave girls. Little does the Spock-eared birthday boy know that the Voltron Force is nearby, aboard a damaged treasure ship bound for Tyrus, admiring the gigantic solid gold statue sent by dear old Dad, King Zarkon.
The Special Features this time around consist of: "Viva Voltron," a music video by the masked electric guitarist, Buckethead, who is known for his KFC headwear; and a featurette entitled, "International Voltron," which includes the original Japanese opening and closing songs from GoLion, plus the French Voltron theme. Also on the third disc are some American and Japanese toy commercials, and more interviews with executive producer, Peter Keefe; director, Franklin Cofod; and story editor, Marc Handler. Capture your Yellow Lion Collection today, before Haggar's Robeast gobbles them all up...and may the Voltron Force be with you! |

I remember watching these cartoons as a kid and loving them. They've done a great job of restoring these episodes 16-30 and the special features are excellent. My kids now love Voltron, too... |
