Going back to voltron: Voltron was not a straight dub from the Japanese anime due to American broadcast standards. One of the most noticeable differences involves the character Sven. In the Japanese version, Sven died after battling Haggar in episode 6. In the American version Sven was seriously injured and left to heal. He returns near the end of the series. In the Japanese version, this was his brother at the end of the series. www.imdb.com/title/tt0086824/trivia

Speaking of Voltron, the Japanese title of the Voltron vehicle team was Kikou Kantai Dairugger XV and has no relation storywise with the Voltron Lion team. Yup yup your right there the Voltron vehicle team really has no relation with the Voltron Lion and it was set on another time .... In the american version, there was a connecion between voltron vehicle and voltron lions: Chip Stoker: Member of the Air Team, and the youngest member of the Vehicle Voltron Force, Chip happens to be Pidge's twin brother, despite the fact that they are visibly different heights. Although not often prominently featured except in one episode, Chip can be described as the brains of the Vehicle Force, much like Pidge is to the Lion Force. He pilots the Advanced Recon Helicopter (#4) that becomes the left upper arm of Voltron. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltron#Air_Team

Chewing aluminum foil can build up a static charge and eventually shock you, so make sure you get rid of ALL the foil from your Kit Kat when you take a break
