I was actually using the toilet at work when I happened to search Voltron looking for the minipla and saw the soc and it said preorder...jumped right on it and grabbed another for myself. The first one I got had a beatup box. Cant be having a beat up box for my alltime favorite bot.

I was just thinking what if bandai reissues this as gx-71sp just like the mazinger z is getting, and the chrome legs are instead that white color the gx-70sp is using? I think that would be a pretty good variant if they ever decide to go that route. That or a respect for popy version like voltes did. Probably won't happen but one can dream right?

I was thinking the same thing. I would love a ‘toon release, any kind of reason to buy a third copy. I almost jumped on that BBTS “found stock” the other day.

Lol yea maybe next release do toon version and maybe limited edition godaikin one. With the toon version it could probably be cheaper because the limbs wouldn't be diecast.

I seem to be one of the few people who actually like the chrome on these lions.
Well I am interested in getting one of the older releases if such a version is made.

I am not aware of Bandai dropping diecast from an SOC re-release and I definitely would not want that.

No I love the chrome legs if I was a betting man I would suggest the people who didn’t want chrome legs weren’t really Chogokin collectors but rather Voltron fans or 80’s enthusiasts. Chrome on SOCs is part of the appeal, my opinion anyway could be wrong.

They already have one that don’t have diecast and removed some joints. Its call the playmate voltron classic. Even if it was official, I still see it as a KO. Unlike other Chogokins , Bandai can’t bust out with reprints of voltron unless they get approval from Wep.

An FA Voltron?
Sure would make up for the fact that we never got an SRC.
