The Epic LEGO Classic Voltron Set is Available to Order Early

Fans have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the LEGO Ideas 21311 classic Voltron set since it was first given the green light for production last year. In June we learned that the general public will be able to bring the 2321-piece set home starting on August 1st for $179.99. However, if you are a LEGO VIP member you can pre-order one right here starting today, July 23rd! If you aren’t a member, don’t panic. Becoming a VIP is easy and free.

Keep in mind that August 1st is the drop date for a TON of other high-profile LEGO sets from franchises like Harry Potter, Star Wars and more, so expect mayhem and sell outs. If you want the Voltron set, your best bet is to reserve one early.

If you are unfamiliar, LEGO is touting the 21311 Voltron set as “the biggest buildable LEGO mech ever” complete with buildable, posable, and combinable black, blue, yellow, red and green lions and a huge sword and shield that attach to Voltron’s hands. An official list of features can be found below.

• Features 5 buildable and posable lions that can be transformed and combined to create the giant Voltron super robot.
