My 5th Grade Class LOVED The Vehicle Voltron http://www.collectiondx.com/node/1063%2523comment-144 The vehicle Voltron was not my first Voltron, the blue gladiator Voltron was(that's another story) but it was far more sought after by the kids in my 5th-6th grade class than the lion Voltron. We all liked the lion Voltron of course but when the vehicle Voltron appeared one day on the TV show instead of the lion Voltron, I along with everyone else in my class were hooked! The story was kind of like Star Trek, seek out and find new life kind of thing. We all liked the stories much better than the Lion Voltron. My friend bought the air team set first and I bought the sea team and land team sets respectively. You could do a lot more with the vehicle Voltron than the lion set obviously, the big downfall was like you said in your review, the toy just didn't hold up well. It was not well made, the leg connection points were the first to go, I had to wrap electrical tape around the connection points to get them to stay together when assembled. Lots of weak plastic joints. I eventually worked out a trade with my friend to get his air team set. Still it was the holy grail back then and I had a lot of fun with that toy. Hopefully we will see a masterpiece version soon! I'd be the first to lay my money down for that one!
