I also bit the bullet on this one. Want the real kicker? I *never* watched Voltron. I heard about it as a kid, but never watched it. Didn't know when it was on, not even sure if it even aired here or if we had the channel that aired it. Never knew anything about it other than it having robot lions (that lets face it, look more like mountain lion/panther/stripeless tiger/wildcat or a lioness) piloted by youths that formed together to make a giant robot humanoid.

My nephew(who was only a year younger than me) had the red lion and the fat pilot who had black hair. I found the toy extremely brittle and the legs began to snap off. The closest thing we had that I saw was Saber Rider, and that show kicked serious ass. Sweet theme song. Cool characters. Wild West meets Giant Robo. The Bismarck was the shit and he was voiced by Optimus Prime himself. Anyhow, I signed up because this toy looks freaking amazing and thus was worth it for me to buy. I still haven't watched Voltron, by the way.

I don't have any other subscriptions, not to DC Universe, not to Ghostbusters (which I was a huge fan of to ridiculous proportions), not to MOTUC, but I signed up to Voltron because it just looked like a must have toy whether you're a fan or not. :]
