    The first time they formed Voltron is one of the greatest moments in animation history. Because back then you never saw anything like it, and you knew that you were witnessing something very special.

    This transformation during that generation was probably equivalent to when Goku first bcame a Super Saiyan and Gohan becoming a Super Saiyan 2. It was just epic for that generation because up until that point, it was unique. There wasn't anything like it. It was something we had never seen before. I just remember the hoopla that this caused in school the very next day. Everybody was talking about it, the school girls and one of my school teachers talked about it too. Man!... That's just good times, right there.

    In my country they played a re-run around 1998. I was six at the time.
    To us kids in kindergarten, we were all mad about Voltron.
    We spoke the words like mantra:
    Формирайте стъпалата и краката!
    (Form feet and legs)
    Формирайте ръцете и тялото!
    (Form arms and body)
    А аз ще формирам главата!
    (And I'll form the head)
    It was a good childhood. And I miss it.

    I agree the transformation has to be on the greatest of all animation history when that came out. The first episode is legendary and iconic. In 1984 l was 11 and in the 5th grade. I would run to the store after school and go straight to the store. Bacon Cheetos and football bubble gum l would get to watch Voltron. Aww l miss and at times think about my childhood memories. Life was simplier,peaceful and wonderful. There will never ever be a great time like that like the early 80's. Thanks for posting.
