At times notorious for its censorship (nearly every character who died in Golion was 'saved' in Voltron through often awkward bits of dubbed dialogue), the series not only showed all 52 re-edited episodes of Golion, but contracted out to Toei for 20 more golion styled animations. Among many other firsts, it virtually created the combining giant mecha plot in America. One of the great, or infamous, depending on the fan's standpoint, anime adaptations of the past thirty years has been the enduring re-edit of Beast King Golion into the iconic Voltron, Defender Of The Universe, a series far more popular abroad than Golion ever was in Japan.
