Official Voltes V Lego? It May Happen!
The Voltes V Lego set
Voltes V may be a Japanese import, but we all grew up watching the Voltes Team fight alien invaders from planet Boazan. Each day, many generations of Filipino kids tuned in to watch Ken’ichi, Daijiro, Hiyoshi, Megumi, and Ippei Mine volt in to fight evil.
Its cultural influence is so powerful that many people still watch reruns of the show, while others collect memorabilia. Arthur Tanesco took it one step further.

The toy collector and enthusiast created a tribute to the legendary show by creating a Lego set featuring the team and the robot!
And there’s a chance for it to become an official Lego product! Tanesco submitted his Voltes V design to Lego Ideas, where the Danish brand will set up a voting process on ideas that can be turned into actual Lego products. Their last set in the Ideas project was the Research Institute set, which featured women with professional jobs.
Go to the Lego Ideas website to vote and make this into a reality.
If Lego does approve the Voltes V design and roll it out, we imagine how Filipinos would react. We predict sold-out stores on the first day!
