“Vehicle Voltron” Was originally an unrelated Japanese series that the dubbing company edited so they could market it as a sequel to Voltron. The show was just so popular they didn’t want to lose out merchandising by letting it end.
They even planned a third series, using another, again unrelated show. That unaired version is usually called “Gladiator Voltron.” The project was canceled based on how unpopular the vehicle version turned out.
