First announced as a forthcoming set nearly a year ago, LEGO is finally taking the wraps off its newest crowd-sourced kit, 21311 Voltron. Based on both the iconic 1980s animated television show of the same name and its subsequent modern-day reboot by DreamWorks, the set will feature five robotic lions who can combine into the super robot Voltron. With 2,321 pieces, the massive mech will be the largest Ideas set to date, easily outpacing the Old Fishing Store and NASA Apollo Saturn V. The set will be on sale briefly at San Diego Comic-Con next month, then will be available to LEGO VIP members beginning July 23, before being widely available August 1. Voltron will retail for $179.99 USD.

Fan designer Leandro Tayag first submitted the project to the LEGO Ideas platform two years ago, where it achieved the requisite 10,000 votes from users within three weeks. The official model from Billund’s team of designers is very similar in size and play features to Leandro’s original design, though the actual construction has changed from top to bottom.

LEGO Ideas 21311 Voltron | 2,321 pieces | $179.99 USD | Aug. 1

Standing over 15 inches high, Voltron’s brightly colored upper body is poseable, though the legs are not.

The super robot Voltron can split into its five constituent parts, the black, blue, yellow, red, and green lions.

The lions are articulated with constraction and Mixels ball joints around a Technic core to allow lots of poseability while remaining sturdy enough to bear Voltron’s full weight.

Voltron is also equipped with a large sword and shield, though LEGO’s official photos don’t show Voltron carrying the shield.

Here’s LEGO’s official press release:
