Speaking of reissues,I may be in a minority but I like the chrome and silver Bandai went for with the Voltron SoC. But I hear many people would want the reissue to have the silver parts be painted white. Well if Bandai does do a reissue and they do change the colors to make it look I guess more anime accurate,I wonder how many people here are willing to sell me their older variant of the SoC Voltron so they can buy the hypothetical reissue? not really most will keep both versions lol (for me at least) I think white looks like crap and Bandai nailed it. I mean look how fisher price the Mattel Voltrons look. i thought so too until i saw and hold the SRC Grenidzer Anime color version, the white paint is just perfect so i imagine if they use that white with the red from Voltes V 40th anniversary on a repaint version of Voltron, it will just be epic lastly Bandai paint is incomparable with Mattel, Bandai paint is more metallic and the quality is of the actual paint is A+, while the paint on Mattel is more Matt and the quality is good but not like Bandai

I also think that Voltron won't look too good with white.

I suspect this is a one time deal that Bandai did for the fans in regards to licensing. We will probably not see a reissue on this or atleast anytime soon.

i am so glad that i got the soc voltron and still is my most expensive figure purchase till dates. Ha that's exactly my feeling and situation as well. It's also my only SOC. I justify it by thinking that it's really 5 figures....

If I knew the damn thing would not only sell out so soon but also that the SoC Megazord would get a HUGE price cut,I would have been quicker to cancel my Megazord preorder and get the SoC Voltron instead. I will forever be kicking myself for this blunder of a choice or at least somewhere between 5-10 years down the line when we get a reissue or Renewal or when Dairugger XV gets announced as an SoC. I still am looking to buy the SoC Ideon as well but the prices are going up way too high now for the most part.

The problem with the SOC Ideon is any cheap one you find is going to have the cracked shoulder joints... and any expensive NIB one you find... is also going to have the cracked shoulder joints, they just won't tell you about it.

This is news to me. Thanks for letting me know. I can see why Ideon was a candidate for renewal. Those ratchets need to be diecast as Odean has said. I guess I will have to let Ideon go for now. Otherwise,it looks like the perfect represenation of the omnicidal GM.

I don't know as like with Optimus Prime SG I have not seen a new video of him for a while.

LOve it!! Great idea to use the Toynami base as a weapon rack. I’ve always wanted some sort of epic Voltron weapon rack for all the weapons accessories of his I have.

Looks like the KO is going to cost about the same or more than the SoC. That’s crazy for a KO. Unless they price each lion at $50, which I doubt, the whole set will cost around the SoC retail price.
