Where Lion Force Voltron Begins

Voltron: Defender of the Universe follows five space explorers who pilot robot lions that combine into the giant robot Voltron. They protect the planet Arus and Princess Allura from the warlord King Zarkon and the witch Haggar, who sends monsters called Robeasts against them.

The English voice cast includes Neil Ross as Keith and Pidge, Michael Bell as Lance and Sven, Lennie Weinrib as Hunk, B. J. Ward as Princess Allura and Haggar, Peter Cullen as Coran and the narrator, and Jack Angel as King Zarkon.

Collection One opens with "Space Explorers Captured" and "Escape to Another Planet", follows the hunt in "A Ghost and Four Keys" and "The Missing Key", and continues through "The Princess Joins Up", "Secret of the White Lion" and "Give Me Your Princess".

Edition Notes

Media Blasters released Voltron as numbered collections, each named after one of the lions, and Collection One is the Blue Lion set. The series was built from the Japanese anime Beast King GoLion, which was dubbed and re-edited for American television. This set is the natural starting point for the Voltron Defender of the Universe DVD collections.
