Thank you for your honest review and critique. I am still deciding on this guy but your video is helping greatly. I also appreciate all of the comparisons. You have a phenomenal Voltron collection!
You're very welcome, Aaron. I'm truly grateful to you for your kind words. I hope that you can add Threezero's Voltron to your collection. As far as the shoulder joint issue is concerned, I've heard from a trusted source that it's been addressed and resolved. I know that it's pricey, but if you're in the market for a new Voltron for your display, you can't go wrong.
@@cesardavis8700 I just wanted to let you know that I cancelled my preorder of the Threezero Robo-Dou Voltron and bought the Blitzway. In your comparison of the two, I really liked the heroic proportions of Blitzway over Threezero. And your comment about how light the Threezero version was helped me decide to spend the extra money. The Blitzway arrived and I couldn't be happier. 😊
@@aaronyi4384 I'm extremely happy for you. I personally love the Carbotix Voltron. The finish is so polished that it truly makes the other iterations look like toys. Enjoy your collection, brother!
What an amazing Voltron collection. Thanks for the video and for the comparison. The panel lining on that huge Mattel Voltron did look great. It looks like that is how it should have come in the first place. Also glad you were able to get the arms to lock in with your Threezero Voltron. BTW, that Blitzway Voltron is a thing of beauty!
Mine arrived yesterday, but he's still sealed in the box. Im going all in on the Bandai DX versions. The three zero offering is more self friendly, though. Great video!
No doubt about it! By the way, when I first received mine, the first thought that ran through my head was not that flattering. BUT THEN, I opened it, and let me tell you. I haven't felt like a kid discovering something AWESOME in a very long time! This is truly meant to be handled to be appreciated. Now I'm just crossing my fingers that this has crazy good sales for Threezero so that they truly go all out on the line. Thanks for the comment, and happy collecting!
Blitzway is in another category and reason for the higher price tag. Can't compare ThreeZero or Bandai to it. Blitzway Voltron is the best figure we ever got of Voltron by far.
Thanks for posting, this was what I was looking for, a comparison with the Blitzway and SOC Voltrons. I prefer the Blitzway Voltron but you can't go wrong with any of them. Nice Voltron and Ferrari collection!
Amazing comparison... thank you for this... really helps into deciding which version to buy... probably ending up buying 3 just from watching this video... hahaha
Thanks very much, Elliot. I appreciate the support, and most of all, the passion that other collectors have for the property. It really encourages me to make more content.
I have my Threezero Voltron coming from Sideshow in the next few days and can't wait. As for the Blitzway... I might try and pick up the Japan Exclusive one just because at the current exchange rate it is a bit cheaper... but man... what a time to be a Voltron collector. Just need these companies to tackle vehicle Voltron more!
Alexander, I couldn't agree with you more! All the recent iterations of Voltron are nothing short of a showcase in technology, creativity, and resolve combined to give our nostalgia an endorphin filled high!! All that I can truly fantasize for now is an animation accurate transforming Voltron. I think I could happily stop collecting if one of these amazing companies released a version like that. Anyhow, thanks for the comment and happy collecting, brother!
Nice review! I’m glad you were able to make your copy more usable. The Robo-Dou is a great looking figure. Hopefully they can get the issues sorted out. I just don’t have the space for any more large Voltrons…but I’d consider the Robo-Dou for its posability. It can do some stuff the SOC just can’t. I like how heavy the SOC is, but the weight does work against it some when posing.
Thanks for this review, I'm still contemplating between Bandai and Threezero's renditions. Anime accuracy is most important to me so it's basically a toss up if which is more acceptable: GX-71, which has the correct belt details but has the lion paws inacurrately exposed in robot mode or the Threezero which accurately portrays the lion paws nicely hidden but has an inaccurately painted belt.
I'm glad you showed comparisons. I have the Die cast Toynami Voltron, the SOC, the Playmates, the Blitzway (Still in the box), and I still have my original 1984 Matchbox Voltron from childhood. I think this one is the one that will be played with.
@@cesardavis8700 My Voltrons are spread out around the house. My 1984 original is in front of me next to my Pentabot above my computer desk crammed in with Star Wars and Marvel Legends figures. My SOC is in my other room next to the SOC Vehicle Voltron and the SOC Daltanious AND the Playmates Lion and Legendary Voltrons. My Toynami Voltron is on another shelf with the Miracle Vehicle Voltron CRAMMED next to a bunch of Transformers figures. My collection is a mess. A beautiful mess.
Wow!! Beautiful Voltron. Dot the forearms of red and green swivel and bend forwards? My carbotix doesn’t do it. I’m trying to recreate the classic pose with the red lions arms . swiveled and bent forward. Awesome review btw
Thanks for the post, Oliver. I would like to agree with you, but I feel that we must first set a precedent for what we're referring to when we say, "best proportions and accuracy in sculpt." As for the animation model, I would say that the Mattel SDCC Blazing Sword Voltron action figure has all other versions beat by a mile. I've put this version against stills from the show, and it's uncanny in how well it mirrors the hand-drawn image. I realize it's not an actual combiner, but given the current technology and resources, it should not be an excuse. Especially when companies like Takara, are making animation model-precise masterpiece figures that can articulate, transform, and combine. Now, if the original Popy/Bandai model is what we're referring to, then I would have to go with the Soul of Chogokin, GX-71 for best head sculpt and general proportions. You have to give kudos to Bandai for really being the first to incorporate all aspects to put into their Voltron design. Threezero definitely has more elegant proportions in regards to an ideal human standard of beauty, but the head sculpt is really soft. It doesn't fulfill what I would consider a good representation of the animation model, or an accurate depiction of the first Voltron toy. Let's hope other viewers chime in with their opinions. Thanks for the topic of discussion, Oliver. Have a wonderful day, and happy collecting, brother.
@@cesardavis8700 Thanks for the reply. In comparison to the Bandai Soul of Chagokin (of which I have two) and even the Blitzway. The Three Zero seems to be the best proportioned to me. It slowly dawned on me that with the Bandai blue and yellow lions, they come up too high on the legs, making them look like thigh high boots lol. The other small gripe I have is the black Lions head looks like a cap when Voltron is formed. It’s a little too bulky at the top. The Blitzway is gorgeous but the body is too lanky somehow. Regarding the faces. The Three Zero face seems more feminine (soft) but very anime accurate. I mean in anime all the characters, even the men are pretty so it works. The red stripe on his pelvis is odd though, I’ve never seen it portrayed that way and wonder why they went that route? I’m sure in a couple of year we will have some other iteration 1 upping these and we will adjust our opinions accordingly as we complain about space lol. Either way, I’m glad we have so many to pick from and able to add to our collections. I just discovered the Shogun Warrior line from Toynami and they are stunning… and ridiculously expensive. Anyway, great video and keep up the passion!
Cool review that sucks you got one with issues if it were me I would just return it anyways just to be safe cause later on it might just get worse but that’s just me cool you finally got those arms in. I had another question on the playmates Voltron we’re did you get those number decal stickers from I been looking for those the ones I bought were the single packs of each lion and none came with those stickers would like to get some to complete my Voltron it looks sick with them on
Thanks for watching. I'm getting another Threezero Voltron, but I'll just keep that one in the box. The one I reviewed I'll keep to experiment future upgrades from other third-party companies. That ties back to your question, which I'm trying hard to recall the answer to. I believe it was fan-made, and listed on ebay around the same retail time for the Voltron 84. I can't find the original listing anywhere on ebay, but there's a listing for a set of the number decals on there. Hope that helps. Thanks again, and best of luck.
It looks like the soc just cheaper looking with arm covers. Thanks for this review it was helpful. The blitzway looks nice I just don't like how narrow he appears. I think also for his price the could have issued full size pilot figures.
Apologies for the delay. Per your question, it's called a Minicel or Miniature Celsius. They came in various deco styles, this one is obviously Voltron. They were made by Kuso Vinyl, and they're getting pretty hard to find on the secondary market. I hope this helps, and happy collecting!
@cesardavis8700 no worries. Getting hard you say... more like they are just a myth. Lol SanDiegoComicCon in a month if there is one for sale out there that's where I'll find it. Thanks for the reply. Great review probably the best one I've seen and I've watched a lot. Plus you're not annoying like some of the other content creators. One thing I didn't hear mentioned, maybe I just missed it. The ThreeZero red and green lion are the same. The green lion upper body is square. Where SOC is what it is supposed to look like. Idk I just feel like that is just a lazy move by ThreeZero. Just in terms of comparing SOC and ThreeZero. Have you got the good smile moderoid yet? If so good smile moderoid or bandai minipla?
yes.. the SOC not like the anime, but it is memorable for childhood toys : the Godaikin or Popy.. memorable 'cause i cannot afford to buy it at that time hahaha...
@@cesardavis8700 Yes...this messes with my head. Such a simple oversight on the Star and the Cross I believe is intentional. Blitzway Carbotix wins again for getting this correct... However...oddly the blue and red flag/shapes behind the cross are missing the lines that usually run accross it.
Did you try to contact ThreeZero about the issue? I received mine around the same time as you did, but only opened it yesterday and unfortunately my copy has the same issue. Such a beautiful figure, there are definitely diecast parts too, the leg lions got some weight to them. May not be as hefty as the SOC but it feels premium, unlike what some folks have been saying.
Sorry for the late reply, MagnaDefender. I did contact Threezero, and their response was that I could do one of two things. One is ship the malfunctioning pieces of the toy back to them, and they would repair and ship back to me in about 2-3 months. The other option they replied with like two weeks after their original response, was that they would ship the parts to repair the issue when they are available. I would then take it upon myself to repair it. Either way, I purchased another copy, which hopefully doesn't have the same problem. BTW, make sure to do the warranty on their website, or they won't cover any repairs/replacements. I agree with you in that it's a beautiful rendition. Best of luck, and happy collecting!
There's a few things to say before that question is addressed, Al len. First, thanks for watching. Secondly, thank you for even considering my opinion. I'm by no means an expert, just another collector sharing their hobby. In response, I'd like to tell you that I have three children that I adore more than anything in this life. Sometimes, friends ask which child I prefer. To which I always answer, the one that's not causing me to go freaking nuts at the moment! Which is neither here nor there, but that's the way I also feel about these Voltron toys. With all their respective quirks and details, I truly love having each one of them in my collection. I can't really pick for you, Al len. You have to choose what fits best for your needs and budget. I do not think that you'd regret having either one in your collection. Thanks again, and happy collecting to you, brother.
@@cesardavis8700 ok.. thanks.. I've been thinking to buy this but based from your video, there are some issues.. I will be choosing between the soc and threezero, that's why I asked you since you got both.. anyway, thanks..
Thanks for the comment. I purchased the original Elvis Voltron version, and I thought it was a fun toy. The thing, in my opinion, is that it's not a traditional representation of Voltron, which is why I don't hype it up as much. Saying that, it should be applauded for its engineering and design. Thanks again, and happy collecting!!
Hello, and thanks for the question. My apologies for not showing the Lego and other off-brand buildable Voltron/Golion. I haven't actually built any of them, but I do have them in my collection. My favorite pieces are these Chinese off-brand chibi style Voltron that actually transform and assemble seamlessly. At least that's what the advertisement on Aliexpress leads me to believe. It was shipped in a cellophane bag with a QR code card for the instructions, and again, I've not built any of them as of yet. Maybe down the road I can do a video showcasing all of these ingenious products. Thanks again, and happy collecting, brother!
It's definitely not worth 300+ that's for sure. It's all plastic, Barely any Dicast no weapons storage and now there are major issues with the Lions not locking I'll pick one up maybe later second hand when the price drops I have 9 Voltrons now and 3 of them I lucked out and found for 100$ on eaby
Thanks for the comment. I think you're only partially right, Andrew Dinsmoor. A modern take on the Popy was definitely in order, but they refined the look and proportions of the gestalt always referring to the animation model. I say that because it's vaguely referenced in the included manual. I also think that the features and articulation, again were engineered with the animation look in mind. That's not to say they were aiming for an animation correct facsimile, but you can't deny that inspiration was derived from it, as well as the original Popy. Now how awesome would it be if a company designed a Golion/Voltron with the animation look? Thanks again, and happy collecting, brother!

Thank you. The forearms only rotate at the elbow joints. You can cheat the pose with the neck extension that's meant for lion mode.

Are there any diecast on it since it seems light?
There is some metal on or around the joints to some capacity, but it's not anything substantial. More like pins and levers.
Honestly think this is one of threezeros worst efforts. A brick that cost too much. Crap 👎
SOC is king imo
It looks just like a Mini Blitz way Voltron
Looks like a 99 dollars toy to me. Sorry but its a meh.
The volcon side of SOC is Lego Voltron. Left

This doesn't look like fun to play with at all. 3-0 should stick to (nontransforming) statues.

Bandai wasn’t aiming for an anime accurate Voltron, it was a modernization of the original Popy toy.
Thanks for the comment. I think you're only partially right, Andrew Dinsmoor. A modern take on the Popy was definitely in order, but they refined the look and proportions of the gestalt always referring to the animation model. I say that because it's vaguely referenced in the included manual. I also think that the features and articulation, again were engineered with the animation look in mind. That's not to say they were aiming for an animation correct facsimile, but you can't deny that inspiration was derived from it, as well as the original Popy. Now how awesome would it be if a company designed a Golion/Voltron with the animation look?
