I REALLY wish I didn't pass on that one. One of my regrets back in those days, around the same time I passed on most of Beast Wars too(which I came to regret as well).

I have one of those. Really fun toy on its own (or with Joes) but it sucks with the 3.75" Voltron figures released at the same time. IIRC the box art for both Voltron and the figures showed it working with him, but never showed him with the cockpits closed.

Now I'm curious if Mattel would be willing to do anything on that scale, since it is my favorite Voltron figure, along with the die-cast one released around the same time. I should take some pics of those guys sometime.
