>>8677015(no disrespect to voltron) voltron doesn't look like pic related. He isn't the same style of mecha/ super robot. Classic veritech fighters appeal to young Americans because its a mix of real world military grounded and scifi fantastical mecha.
There's a reason why American kids didn't play with voltron and Joe's at the same, despite being in the same scale, because the visual disconnect between rugged military vehicles and bright, colourful lion bots is too great.
