Editor's Notes and Comments:
Description:
A series of unnatural earth tremors frightens the Space mice into action. Rather than running or hiding, they begin to train like soldiers, and fight a pitched battle against the Blue Cat. To back them up, Pidge builds them their very own robot vehicle, a flying mouse. Before they have a successful flight, Voltron is trapped by a powerful underground Robeast. It's up to the Space Mice to launch a rescue mission!

It is about time we got this kind of dvd set although they need to pick up the speed in which the sets come out but other than that the sets are great quality and its keeps the true nature of the classic alive.

The fourth Voltron collection starts off with an epic five-part story, which was originally intended to be the conclusion of the series. Fortunately, because of the show's incredible popularity with American audiences, World Events partnered with Toei (the largest producer of animation in Japan) to create still more exciting Voltron adventures. These additional programs begin on the second disc, and you will undoubtedly notice a difference. At this point, the overused Haggar/Robeast formula is downplayed in favor of richer and more diverse storytelling, making the Red Lion Collection the best Voltron set yet! The newer shows also contain more narration by the legendary Peter Cullen (a.k.a. Optimus Prime) as well as some different background music. Unfortunately, although the artwork in these tacked-on episodes is just as good, if not better than before, the colors are way too dark, the characters look flat due to a lack of shading, and the picture is as grainy as a bowl of Grape Nuts. Princess Allura's famous golden locks are now as orange as a Halloween pumpkin. Pidge's traditional lime-green jumpsuit has an ugly olive hue, and his Voltron uniform is almost black...but at least he's finally done away with that girly hairband, and that's certainly a good thing.
This Defender of the Universe volume contains a total of fourteen dramatic episodes; among them are classic tales like these:
"Mighty Space Mouse": In an effort to divert the attention of the Voltron Force's ever-present mouse friends away from the activities of her new underground Robeast, Witch Haggar orders her blue-furred feline to patrol the fields surrounding the Castle of Lions. Little does the elderly evildoer know that main mouse, Cheesy, has recently obtained a tiny whistle and a saucepan helmet and become the designated drill sergeant of the space mouse kingdom. The red-eyed rodent has been working day and night to whip his verminous troops into shape, and, armed only with sharpened twigs, the fearless little critters are now ready--in fact, eager--to tangle with the crafty crone's cantankerous kitty. Pidge (who is naturally fond of the space mice because they're small and squeaky, like himself) is so impressed by Cheesy's `Scat Squad', that he builds them their very own Voltron-inspired bomb-shooting aircraft!
"Zarkon Becomes a Robeast": The foul-tempered King of Doom throws his infuriatingly incompetent son, Lotor, in the dank dungeon of Devil's Castle for allowing the awesome Energy Cannon to fall into the hands of the indomitable Voltron Force. Meanwhile on Planet Arus, Princess Allura hosts a meeting of the Denubian Galaxy Alliance, where she informs the diminutive Prince Bandor and his contemporaries of Coran's ingenious plan to use the captured Cannon to disrupt the protective screen of electronic charges surrounding Planet Doom so the almighty Voltron can reach the savage planet's vile surface and eradicate Zarkon's abundant supply of weapons and ammo. But before the conference of galactic luminaries adjourns, the odious oppressor's robot ships descend on Arus with lasers blazing! Can Lance and Keith reach the Energy Cannon before Zarkon's fleet obliterates it?
"Dinner and a Show": A peaceful afternoon in the picturesque pastures of Planet Pollux is rudely interrupted by the horn-hatted Cossack the Terrible and his army of sky sled riding robots. With electro-lash in hand, the fiendish periwinkle-faced tyrant rounds up the hard-working Polluxian farmers and loads them onto his boxy brown transport ship. One fortunate farm boy escapes the steely clutches of Cossack's mechanoids and dashes off to inform Princess Romelle of the nightmarish invasion. Romelle immediately radios her identical Arusian cousin, Allura, and the Voltron Force flies to the rescue. Tragically, before our heroes reach Arus' sister planet, the hapless pink-clad pilot of Blue Lion is sucked into a deep trench in the center of a giant asteroid near the dreaded Aurora Quasar!
"Envoy from Galaxy Garrison": Despite the impeccable job Keith and company have been doing battling the devilish King Zarkon and his minions thus far, Galaxy Garrison inexplicably decides to send a crusty old General to Arus to take over command of the Voltron Force. The curmudgeonly interloper even goes so far as to declare our beloved Voltron obsolete! Can the five young Lion pilots defeat Witch Haggar's indestructible moonstone-powered Robeast without forming Voltron...or will the portly General's senseless meddling spell ultimate victory for the hated forces of Doom?
"The Shell Game": Just as life in the towns and cities of Arus is finally returning to some degree of normalcy, Haggar the heartless hag has to spoil it all by unleashing a gargantuan crab-shaped monstrosity to topple the newly-erected houses as if they were mere stacks of children's building blocks. As always, the ever-reliable Voltron ... Read More
