Let's Go Voltron Force!

I just got off the phone with World Events, who tells me that DVDs for Voltron are in-the-works for 2004, to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the show!
As part of the 20-year anniversary, Voltron: Defender of the Universe will be seen on DVD, in a new line of toys from Toynami, and in comic books that are already on the market from Devil's Due Comics. Also possible is a brand-new Voltron television series, but that is still in-the-works and under wraps.
This is all I can tell you for now, but as a fan of the show since it first aired, I cannot tell you how excited I am about this! Stay tuned right here, because I'm going to be all over this one.
F'ing cool.

Actually, I still have several Gobots. They were better made than the Transformers. Too much plastic.

This is really treading into off-topicville, but I was in a Toys R Us a few weeks ago and saw some really crappy-looking transforming toy and it had both the Transformers logo and the Gobots logo on it. I have no idea what caused that to happen.

They had to give them away because they certainly couldn't sell them.
