Robestiary

The first (and only) Voltron robestiary on the Internet timed with a stopwatch!

Much has been said about Voltron and the clan of Doom, but relatively little concerns the robeasts. Maybe it's because they all were a pile of mush by the ends of the respective episodes they appeared in, and maybe it's because many had absolutely no appeal. Some of the robeast designs were downright wacky (a runaway bulldozer?), while others were good in theory, but not in practice (a jellyfish robeast; all Voltron really needed was a pair of pantyhose to defeat it, but I digress.) Here are all of the robeasts in the Lion Voltron series, with their weapons, a pic, and how long each one's battle against Voltron lasted*. Have a look and see which robeasts gave Voltron the most trouble, and which were Hagar's biggest wastes of her talent.

Here are some statistics on the robeasts. Timing was done with a stopwatch.
Total Battle Time in seconds: 7578.84 (126 minutes, 18.6 seconds).
10.14% of robeasts made in the series never actually fought Voltron.

As one can plainly see, the S1 robeasts had more endurance in Battle than the S2 robeasts. There is also a good deal of skewing in the results, no doubt due to the robeasts that never fought Voltron and the ones that lasted over 400 seconds.
