WHO REMMEBERS ADVENTURES OF teddy Ruxpin

was ninja turtles before or after voltron??


@Ivanx7
Lol. A 27-year old should be able to clearly remember Voltron if he actually watched Voltron way back then. Ninja Turtles was after Voltron. I remember the Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin.

The Story teller with a Guitar that i remember is Uncle Jimi Solanke (of blessed memory).


abeg oooo ,uncle jimi solanke is very much alife.

infact,, 

My school always closed at 4:00pm and I had to walk home so I always arrived just when it was over and used to have my elder siblings who were going to another school recount the day's episode for me. I think I caught only 1 or 2 shows but I always knew the story. Spent some time drawing the lions with some classmates while at boarding house in secondary school (FGC Ido-Ani). I do remember one plot line where the lions were split and placed near their enemy elements (i.e the blue lion with fire, the red lion with water e.t.c). And all those funny "Robeasts", they always went down to the blazin sword.

hi eniola can i be your defender of the universe? timmy james from lagos nigeria. 08067296460, 08078456660

[TEARDROPS!] Meeennnn, u guys jus' rush in da good ol' days,  can't help but join in on this. Just finishin' my secondary level then,  uhmm! those sweet words initiating the transformation process, 
                                         "Activate interlocks.
                                          Dyno-therms connected.
                                          Infracells up, 
                                          Mega-thrusters on,
                                          Go . . .
And then u are thrilled to the marrow [my fav. part] to see each of the lions coming out from underwater, undertree, underrock, and some other bases. I saw VOLTRON recently, last month or so, from one of those channels - NTA, i think, and i was glued. Those days, my brother and I were always fighting for space. God help anybody to disturb us. NEPA,  it was serious prayer for their cooperation.
Then another great fav. was FRAGGLE ROCK and TERRA HAWKS. Boy! I loved these arresters. They made my days. Like others have expressed earlier, today's generation,  i feel sorry for them - having to put up with, damn!, Teletubbies! [rubbish]. Cant agree more with the guy that said today's kids would become dummies with such stupid progs. Thankfully, another nice favorite - TOM AND JERRY [DVD] - makes a great companion for me and my daughter.
My fav. xters on FRAGGLE ROCK: RED, MOKEY, GLOBO [and his ever traveling Uncle].
Then, TERRA HAWKS. I remember one of round [ball] fighters no. 55 who always expressed himself in some french accent [and getting into trouble with it]. Love those sci-fi presentations. Can someone please give me a current link to them? Then Good old Sesame Street. A prog. i watched for over 20 years, damn! how time flew,  those were TV  progs. back in the days.

Sorry to digress,yeah ! I remember that one,who remembers Please water run ^{(a song on fraggle rock?)}

@jairzinho, i remember

please water run
please water ruuuuuuuuuuun
please water ,please water ,please water ruuuuuuuuuun 

see d water run
see d water run
see d water, see d water , see d water ruuuuuuuun 

Voltron's da bomb! But transformers still do rock! I've always been partial towards them. Even now, my transformers collection doubles my Voltron collection - and beyond.

Lest I digress too much, keep loving Voltron - either of the flavors available to you , 

@ All,

To me, Voltron was da bomb and should have been a member of the Transformers.

looking at the way Voltron is formed, it would be a transformer.

Transformer Ke?

no way!

who remembers renta-ghost!

@Gamine
Rental ghosts? Back in the day I kept pinching my nose ter see whether I'll disappear! Them spooks!
It's just that they don't make tv shows like they use to you know,  Those were the days where children had inspirations & exploited them with good intentions: artists, engineers, explorers, developers, teachers,  I betcha  y'all been inspired one way or the other!

this thread still dey?

O boy!! this memory is not a small something,
Girls dey go thief their mama money give me just for me to draw voltron for them.
so tey me i go even dey do shakara sef for the ugly voltron lions wey i dey draw,

Now i just wonder!!! no fun the little children anymore,
Na only to dey show mexican soap opera for our TV na im all this stations sabi now,
After them go say the young generation too  corrupt,

thank u my brother for this topic wey u bring make we share,

Abi now.
just trying to relive the good ol'days. 

Oh! these guys,

they a real kool dudes
I think i prefer them to the Power Rangers

power rangers don't have anything on voltron crew

Yeah i remember rent a ghost, humming the theme song in my head at the moment. I remeber this rather unsettling laugh at the end of the song.
Awwww can't remember their names now but i sure would like to get a DVD of that. Holla please anyone who has info on the DVD.
