Gladiator Voltron (Voltron of the Middle Universe)
There were plans for yet another Voltron, which would have been based on the series Light Speed Electric God Albegas ( – Kosoku Denjin Arubegasu). This series would have featured three smaller humanoid robots (named Alpha, Beta, and Gamma) that combined to form one larger robot — Voltron. It was housed in a mountain base and wielded an energy sword,
much like the other Voltrons. Due to the strong popularity of the Lion Voltron, the unenthusiastic response to the Vehicle Voltron, and Albegas’s lack of popularity in Japan, World Events Productions, (the St. Louis, Missouri based company who owns the rights for both Voltron series)

ultimately decided against another parallel Voltron saga. Matchbox released a toy of Gladiator Voltron labeled Voltron II, in addition to Voltron I (Vehicle Voltron) and Voltron III (Lion Voltron).
Lion Voltron (Voltron of the Far Universe)
The first episodes were based on the 1984 series Hyakujuu-ou Golion (Hyakujūō Goraion, Hundred Beast King GoLion/FiveLion), and they featured a team of five (six when later Princess Allura replaced Sven) young pilots commanding five robot lions,
which could be combined to form Voltron. In this undefined future era, the Voltron Force was in charge of protecting the planet Arus (ruled by Princess Allura) from the evil King Zarkon, his son Lotor, and the witch Haggar, who would create huge Robeasts to terrorize the people of Arus.
(This storyline is similar to those of the Toei Super Sentai shows, which formed the basis for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.) Despite being the first of the two robots to appear on American television, the “GoLion” version of Voltron was regarded as “Voltron III” within the toyline because, within the original planned

“three-Voltron” continuity, Arus was the furthest setting from Earth’s side of the universe (“Voltron I” being intended for the Near Universe, and “Voltron II” for the Middle Universe).
Voltron, in the comic book series published by Devil’s Due, was originally a unified machine intelligence. He did not break into five pieces, and had “normal” hands and feet. Voltron was tricked by
Haggar into landing on a black comet with nearly the gravitational attraction of a singularity.
This comet was either a reference to, or itself actually WAS the Omega Comet from the animé, which had identical properties, and which appeared in the TV show. Voltron was then attacked by Haggar, and somehow blown into five pieces.
They became the five “lions.” (Much of this was presented in the “History of Voltron” back-up stories written by Mark Waid, which were ended early due to the cancellation of the series. Therefore, the Devil’s Due origin is incomplete.)
Vehicle Voltron (Voltron of the Near Universe)
Later episodes were based on the 1982 series Armored Fleet Dairugger XV (XV – Kikō Kantai Dairagā XV), and they changed the storyline considerably. In this iteration of Voltron, the Galaxy Alliance’s home planets have become overcrowded,

and a fleet of explorers has been sent to search for new planets to colonize. Along the way, they attract the attention of the evil Drule Empire, long engaged in an ongoing war against the Alliance, and the Drules proceed to interfere in the mission of the explorers and the colonists.
Since the Voltron of Planet Arus was too far away to help the explorers, a totally new Voltron is constructed to battle the Drule threat.
This Voltron team consisted of 15 members, who were divided into three teams of five, known respectively as the Land, Sea and Air Teams. Each team was specialized in
gathering data or fighting in their area of expertise. Each team could also combine their vehicles into a bigger machine, with each combined vehicle differing amongst the three teams. These fighters were:
- The Aqua Fighter (Sea Team)
- The Turbo Terrain Fighter (Land Team)
- The Strato Fighter (Air Team)

When necessary, all 15 vehicles combine to form the mighty Voltron. This Voltron in the toyline was referred to as Voltron I (also called the Vehicle Team),
possibly due to it being closer to Earth than the more popular Voltron III (or Lion Force Voltron).
According to the backstory provided by World Events Productions, the Vehicle Voltron was constructed after consultations by the Galaxy Alliance with Planet Arus’s King Alfor before his death, with the new Voltron’s designs retrofitted in part from the original, much older, Lion Voltron schematics. However, in the continuity of the recent comic by Image and Devil’s Due Publishing, the Vehicle Voltron came about through the capture and study of the original Voltron on Arus by forces from Earth itself. Thus, while machines cannot truly be cloned, this new Voltron could be considered an imperfect clone of the original Lion Voltron. The machine was referred to in one issue as V-15, and was actually attacked by the Lion Voltron in order to repair itself. Unlike the animated series, which only had two crossovers with the Lion Force (once at the end of the Lion Force run, and the other in the “Fleet of Doom” special, which brought both Voltrons together),

and which depicted the two Voltron Forces as being longstanding friends, the comics showed Keith and Jeff as having an antagonistic relationship with one another, particularly with regard to the Lion Voltron’s supposed “sneak attack” on the Vehicle Voltron.
Voltron the Movie
In early episodes, it was mentioned that the Vehicle Voltron, once assembled, had only five minutes of nuclear operational capability. This angle promptly vanished during later episodes.
