ALSO, though they had nothing on display, I was able to ask one of the Mattel reps about the new Voltron Classics line.  I learned that it is coming in about 5-6 months, each lion will be around $30 each, with  diecast parts,  spring actions, articulated figures that fit in each lion, sold on MattyCollector.com, and fully combined into Voltron is over 2-3 feet!  Also, each will come with a part to build the blazing sword!

They also mentioned that the classic Voltron toys will only be on Matty Collector at first, but once the new series toys hit retail for a little bit, they plan to start mixing the two at retail.

Check back for more C2E2 coverage coming this week!

  1. Nice pics! Man, that Winston is looking fantastic now! I’m so glad they were able to go in and make the changes to the pack. I wasn’t too interested in Voltron toys before, but that sounds kinda cool.
