Episode Notes

Marc and Greg recap the first day of VoltCon 2019. They go over the event schedule, including 2 panels run by your Let's Voltron Podcast Hosts: Voltron 101 and History of Voltron Toys. Other hot panels included a Franklin Cofod Interview and Jeremy Corray and Bob Koplar, talking about Voltron Force.

This was the first EVER convention dedicated solely to Voltron, in honor of the 35th Anniversary of the first episode of Voltron: Defender of the Universe on TV on September 10, 1984.

Marc and Greg were happy to kick off the festivities even before the opening ceremonies with a Voltron 101 Panel. Our friend, Dani DeWald was so gracious and recorded the whole panel and posted it on YouTube! Go check it out HERE!

After the opening ceremonies, kicked off by VoltCon Organizers Kevin Clark, Patrick and Savannah O'Connor and Ryan Howe, Franklin Cofod (Showrunner/Director for Voltron: Defender of the universe) took the panel stage for an interview, moderated by Patrick.

After that, Marc and Greg took the stage again for the History of Voltron Toys panel.

Following Marc and Greg were Bob Koplar and Jeremy Corray to talk about Voltron Force. This panel answered a lot of fan questions about why Voltron Force did not get a second season, and Voltron fans were told what the future of the Voltron franchise might be.

There were many great vendors in the "Space Mall", including the Voltron Store, and many great cosplayers, wearing many original character designs from their favorite Voltron series.

Join us on our next podcast, where we cover Day 2 of VoltCon and talk to 3 other attendees to form our own VoltCon Voltron.

As Always, Thanks for Listening! Let's Voltron!!
