Greetings! I got this Voltron the other day. I made a trade at my local comic book shop and this was part of the deal. So I'm not sure what it cost me. I guess I got it for $20 to $30. I guess I should google it. It has 1984 World Events Productions, LTD on the back. Looks like I'm missing one guy, Voltrons weapons and maybe the helmets. The lions are pretty loose. Go easy on me, I'm a Jumbo Shogun/Star Wars guy. ;D  |

No. Sorry about that. Maybe I posted this in the wrong area. Anyway, it's around 14" or 15".

That looks like the Panosh Place Voltron with action figures. They also made
A castle set as well. Look on eBay I believe it's fairly common.
Congratulations on picking up some Vintage Voltron stuff.

Will Sweet! Thank for the info. I didn't know the Pancsh Place part. That helps with the search. I'm going to hunt down the accessories and whatnot. If anyone has a blue lion clear door and any of the helmets holla!  |

There are some of the loose helmets listed on Ebay currently. Just search "Voltron helmets" and they will come up. Good luck.

I have both the figure set that i got recently and the toy i have had since i was a child.
You're better off selling those figures and starting for complete ones. Trying to find just helmets will cost you more than they're worth. Each figure comes with a helmet and a "key".
The door for the blue lion, you might find one on a junker body that you can buy. Cheapest that way. Most people lose the canopies.
The voltron came with a sword and a shield, both chrome and godaikin sized however the sword is completely flat with NO hand guard on the handle/hilt and the shield is all chrome (no blue insert or sticker).
The lions came with a ton of accessories that are a kid friendly plastic. All different colors. 14-18 pieces total approximately. Other than that cool toy for the play value even if it is chunkier than most voltron stuff. It's durable and doesn't weigh a ton.
Also the red chest on the black lion opens up you may want to check in there for extra parts. The other figure areas go pretty deep so check those for helmets. The helmets are really plain looking. Lastly the black lion has a big yellow swinging tail.
That should pretty much cover you.
