Awsome, Voltron was a classic, it was one of the first animes I saw next to DBZ and Sailor Moon, I'm so glad they're Returning this show to cartoon network, I remember when it used to be on toonami during the mid 90's or something

recently they started releasing Dvds of it.

and I Loved the voltron Parody break dance from that one episode of Robot Chicken Very Happy

Since it's been about two decades since I last saw an episode, I should try watching it just for the nostalgia.

Yeah, it's a great idea but if I can't see it, what's the pointy?

5:30 AM is a bit too early for me. A classic series like that deserves to be in a better time slot. How about giving up on of those "Camp Lazlo" slots.

Hey, I get to see the classic Voltron again. Does this mean there'll also be retunring toys (just like the Beast Wars toys returned)?

After my friend heard the news he said,

"YESSSSSS!!!!"


Ah, yes this takes me back to my days in HS. Actually this might be worth watching on CN. Now if only my nieces and nephews could get into the joy of "geekdom". No wait they're already geeks!

The Beast Wars Toys returned because of it's 10th Anniversary, meaning the series that saved the Transformers Franchise is 10 Years Old. Hasbro celebrates this, so they repaint and re-release old Molds, they also released 2 New Molds, a new Looking Optimus Primal, and a new Looking Megatron(Both sold seperatly as the 2 Pack is the Original Molds from the 90's).

I might not even have been posting here if it weren't for Voltron! They started my addiction. But CN, this is another show that doesn't belong on AS. It belongs in Toonami.
