A [[Sequel Series]] to the original 1984 ''[[Voltron|Defender of the Universe]]'' story, '''''Voltron Force''''' is Nicktoons Network's newest{{when}} animated series. It debuted in June, 2011.
After [[Never Say "Die"|defeating]] the evil King Lotor years prior, the Voltron Lions went berserk during a celebration, killing none but terrifying all, and leading to their
The Voltron Force, including a trio of new cadets, will journey to new worlds, find new powers, and uncover ancient secrets in their newest battle to save the universe!

Take a look at the [[Voltron/Characters|Character Sheet]]
{{tropelist}}
* [[Eighties Hair]]: When Keith first appears, he's still sporting the mullet he wore in the original series. Lance mocks his sense of style. Keith has it cut before the next episode.▼
* [[Actor Allusion]]: In a bit of a roundabout way. Hunk's original voice actor provided the voice for a [[Spinoff Babies|young]] [[The Flintstones|Fred Flintstone]], and in "The Hunkyard", Hunk can be seen grilling up Fred's token Giant slab of ribs.
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Lance's originally brown hair now is more reddish, and Hunk, who originally had black hair, now has brown hair. Keith now has bluish-black hair and blue eyes, making him look oddly like Devil's Due comic version of Sven.
Line 49 ⟶ 48:
* [[Combining Mecha]]: The titular mecha, just like the original. But it acquires new transformations with other lions serving as the robot's centerpiece.
** And by the Season Two episode "Rogue Trip", the cadets upgraded their junkyard mechs to form their own [[Combining Mecha]], nicknamed "Awesometron". {{spoiler|It is destroyed in the episode "I, Voltron" in order to defeat the Wade-Kala "Lider" robeast, albeit temporarily.}}
* [[Composite Character]]: ''Voltron Force''{{'}}s Voltron is a mix from the [[Voltron|original series']] Voltron and ''Voltron: The Third Dimension''{{'}}s Voltron and its "Stealth Mode". ''Voltron Force''{{'}}s Voltron is not as block-like as the original series' version but is more streamlined like the ''Voltron: The Third Dimension'' version's "Stealth Mode" yet retains its [[Chest Insignia]] and red wings.
** This incarnation of Voltron is able to have [[Multiform Balance|different abilities depending on which Lion is the head]]. Thus it has the traits of [[What Could Have Been|the proposed but unproduced]] Voltron
* [[Continuity Cameo]]: Pidge's brother Chip, the pilot of the Advance Recon Helicopter (#4) that becomes the left upper arm of Vehicle Voltron, appears in the episode "Brains".
** Allura's Nanny appears at the end of the episode "Ghost in the Lion".
Line 62 ⟶ 61:
* [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: Wade, though only the Voltron Force seems to actually care.
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: At least for Lotor.
**
* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]]: Maahox
* [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: Wade takes his "anti-Voltron" policy at the Academy ''very'' seriously -- Danny (and Vince) received latrine duty for a month just for asking about the subject, and Pidge joked that Danny could be expelled for possessing an old photo of the team members.
▲* [[Eighties Hair]]: When Keith first appears, he's still sporting the mullet he wore in the original series. Lance mocks his sense of style. Keith has it cut before the next episode.
* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]
* [[Evil Knockoff]]: Wade extensively studied the Black Lion so he could make his own copies of the technology, including a gigantic Grey Lion (large as Voltron itself) posessing [[More Dakka]], and several other robot lions patrolling his moon base. He also created smaller human scale versions.
