Hunk, Voltron by Panosh Place, Dist. by Mattel 1984
Voltron: Defender of the Universe – Hunk (Panosh Place, 1984)
Straight from the cockpit of the Yellow Lion, here comes Hunk, the powerhouse of the Voltron Force, in his original 1984 action figure release by Panosh Place. This mint on card (MOC) figure includes his removable helmet and signature clip-on Lion Key—ready to lock into his lion and form the left leg of the mighty Voltron.
🛡️ This early action figure line broke the mold. Unlike most robot-centric toys of the time, Panosh Place made the pilots just as important as the lions themselves. Each pilot figure was designed to fit inside the cockpit of its respective lion in the combining Voltron robot—a first-of-its-kind feature that elevated playability and immersion.
📺 Cartoon Context: Voltron’s animated series brought together intergalactic combat, mysticism, and teamwork, becoming a defining force in ‘80s mecha cartoons. Hunk, known for his strength and heart, was always the first to defend his friends and face danger with a smile (and a powerful punch).
🧠 Trivia: Though Panosh Place was responsible for designing and producing the toys, Mattel acted as the international distributor—so you’ll often find both logos on the packaging, especially in markets outside the U.S. This co-branding helped get these figures into more hands across the globe.
A nostalgic staple and a cornerstone of vintage Voltron collecting, Hunk is a must-have for anyone assembling the full team.
