Never had one of those as a kid, so I'm quite jealous of all those that did.
I'm quite happy with the plastic Toynami version though, as I think it's the most balanced version so far. I actually don't think the technology exists yet to build a perfect, poseable, durable, affordable version of this guy.
Michael, the bigger vehicle voltron deffinently exists. I have owned one, not as good as the lions. Not as articulated. It is a fun toy, nearly all 15 vehicles have pull back motors, firing fists etc. It can be got quite cheap on ebay, I sold my incomplete one a few months back for £10, although it was missing a couple of pieces, its easy enough to get the pieces.
I think I might have (still?) this sitting in a basement in boxes somewhere. So buying the reissue probably wouldn't do much. I also remember owning the Voltron robot made up of all those vehicles. I actually liked that one better than the original lion version. It was a smaller figure though that didn't split apart. Man I should try and hunt down one that actually splits up, if it exists.

I do not think Toynami did to bad. The plastic version still looks really nice, compared to the masterpiece.

Great toy even by todays standards. Toynami's Masterpiece is not bad either.

Dang, that should be really lame, but it's still pretty cool. I always wanted those when I was a kid.
