Product Description
The Galaxy Alliance's home planets have become overcrowded, and a fleet of explorers has been sent to search for new planets to colonize. Along the way, they attract the attention of the evil Drule Empire, long engaged in an ongoing war against the Alliance, and the Drules proceed to interfere in the mission of the explorers and the colonists. Since the Voltron of Planet Arus was too far away to help the explorers, a totally new Voltron is constructed to battle the Drule threat.

Takes me back to my youth January 7, 2009
I may be one of the minority who really did like this series better than the lion voltron, but I think it was because of the fact that the vehicles could link up to form other fighters as well. I really enjoyed watching this series and it takes me back to when I was a kid watching this. The episodes I have watched so far are very good quality and I haven't seen any serious issues with disc playback or other factors that would prevent anyone from enjoying the episodes.
Go ahead and pick it up if you liked voltron as a child. It is a nice way to relive some of those moments. Now I just wish I still had my Vehicle Voltron action toys!
 Vehicle voltron is entertaining but weak. January 4, 2009
I do like Vehicle Voltron as a cartoon but I feel it is weak. If you compare this anime series with Lion Voltron, Most people would say Lion Voltron is better. The anime is good in some areas. The Toei animation is excellent. the anime violence is minimal. Each Vehicle Voltron episode teaches something about Humans and values. I do like Vehicle Voltron, It is entertaining but not up to standard as Lion Voltron in terms of characters and story. I think this anime is good but NOT on the bar as Lion Voltron. B-
The Best Voltron! January 3, 2009
This is best of the Voltron of the entire series.
In my country this was the 1th Voltron I wathed in TV Monday to Friday 11:30 So after school over 11:00 I must to run faster as i can before the show start so when I get home already miss i bit of the ROBOTECH, but not matter because VOLTRON Vehicle coming after robotech. What a child memories of the 80's .
Well the DVD set is good , the image, the sound is still intact.
I recomend this DVD set to any anime fans out there, who really enjoy old school anime.
and continue enjoy: VOLTRON DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE......
FINALLY, Vehicle Voltron Has Come Back To The Fans! December 18, 2008
I have to admit that it has been a loooong time coming for this release. I collected all of the Lions series and when that series came to it's conclusion I HOPED that that the Vehicle team was next up for release. After checking with Best Buy when I first heard of the DVD release and walking away with the answer of DELAY, on more than just ONE occasion, I became VERY skeptical as to whether or not the release would ever see the light of day. So I checked AMAZON.COM (cheap plug for a great server), and saw that not only was it released, but it was IN STOCK even before the latest release date that I had obtained from Best Buy! So I figured it was worth a shot and placed my order. Less than a week later I was pleasantly surprised with it's arrival. I haven't gotten through all 3 discs yet, but I am very pleased with the job done on the transfer. MUCH more than I was with the poorly done "FLEET OF DOOM" (Please see my other reviews) release. I only hope that the other two sets receive the same great treatment that the Air Team set has. Because as we all know and witnessed in the "FLEET OF DOOM" movie that VEHICLE VOLTRON is BY FAR the SUPERIOR version. Let's not forget just who bailed who out in the movie! VEHICLE VOLTRON FANS UNITE!
For Many of Us, This Was a Long Time Coming November 28, 2008

Received my advanced copy of this, the 6th volume of the Voltron animated series today and have been enjoying every moment of this collection. While much debate exists as to which version of Voltron was superior, in truth the source material was actually two entirely separate Japanese series. WEP, through some slick editing, was able to turn Dairugger XV into what we now know as Vehicle Voltron back in the mid 1980s. This DVD set represents the first foray of the Voltron franchise devoted exclusively to Vehicle Voltron.
When compared to the original incarnation, Vehichle Voltron strays a but farther from the fantasy roots of GoLion (Lion Force here in the States) in favor of a more science-fiction based approach. The visual quality and presentation is easily on par with WEP's volume 1-5 releases with the Air Team (Strato Fighter) gracing the cover.
Included on this set is the following:
Episodes 73-90 of the series (450 minutes total run time)
Remastered film transfer from the original 35mm stock
5.1 Surround Sound Mix
The Vehichle Voltron pilot
Featurette: Vehicle Voltron Fans Unite
Team Up Clips
Full episode synopsis with original air dates
While this box set is surrounded by enthusiasm as it represents the first DVD release devoted entitrely to Vehichle Voltron, WEP isn't letting the dust settle for long before following up with the next box, Volume 7 which is set to be released on January, 13 2009. Like Volume 6, this will be another Vehicle Voltron exclusive set with The Land Team (Turbo Terrain Fighter) on the cover. Can't wait!
