VOLTRON: DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE, VOL 2

Boy, you know, I really get excited when classic cartoons from my childhood get released on DVD. I still find it incredible that I can purchase entire seasons of Thundercats and He-Man at the local Best Buy or Suncoast. This week, another childhod cartoon I still cherish has found immortality on DVD. On Tuesday, retailers begin selling VOLTRON: DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE, VOL 2 (1984). Say, that's for me!

Media Blasters synopsis - From days of long ago, from uncharted regions of the universe, comes a legend… the legend of Voltron: a mighty robot, loved by good, feared by evil.
