Green Machine - See all my reviews

This review is from: Voltron Volume 1 (Amazon Instant Video)

Thanks for the free episode. This is one of "the" classic animation series of all time! Love it!

BTW, Macs aren't supported by Unbox. I downloaded the file to my PC and it worked great.

4.0 out of 5 stars Where's the beef?, July 2, 2007

John Paul "eyewitness" (New York, New York USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Voltron Volume 1 (Amazon Instant Video)

What are you guys talking about? I had absolutely no problem with the download and episode one is free! This show looks better on my computer than it ever looked in the 80's on TV. Forget about the new Transformers movie today and rock out with VOLTRON. Go VOLTRON Force!

5.0 out of 5 stars It was free, easy and made me feel like I was 11 again!
Awesome to re-live the '80s "glories" of one of the classics of robo-toons -- for free, and just a couple of bucks each for more. Read more
