Cool Stuff: Voltron LEGO Set Lets You Assemble The Robot In More Ways Than One
For me, there’s something that’s not only fun but almost relaxing about building a cool vehicle or building from various pop culture worlds out ofLEGOpieces. Whether it’sthe Ghostbusters firehouseor theBatcave from the 1966 Batman TV series, I just love piecing together a LEGO set. And if you’re a fan ofVoltron, you’ll want to support this latest LEGO Ideas proposal.
A new custom Voltron LEGO set not only allows you to build the robot from LEGO bricks, but it allows you to assemble the robot from five individual LEGO lions, just like Voltron. Check out the Voltron LEGO set after the jump.
Here’s images of the LEGO Voltron set fromLEGO Ideas(viaGizmodo):
The set is big enough to give detail to each of the five lions, but not big enough to make the potential official sale of the set ridiculously priced. The assembled robot would stand 16 inches tall and weigh two pounds. It’s extremely impressive that each of the lions is built in a way that allows it to be assembled into Voltron. That’s some great LEGO engineering.
But since this is aLEGO Ideas project, it still needs 10,000 votes in order to get in front of the jury who will decide if it will be made into a real LEGO set. At the time of this writing, there are nearly 7,000, so it’s almost there. If you’re aVoltronfan, do your part and go give this LEGO seta vote right nowand hope for the best.
And don’t forget that a newVoltronanimated series ison the way to Netflix.
