I'm just saying that Voltron is your standard super robot. Super sonic flight, super strength, magic projectiles that come out of nowhere, some seemingly random abilities and all that jazz. It's everything Gurren Lagann mocked (Except not literally because GoLion wasn't that big in Japan)

The Megazord is really limited, but it's also rather underpowered, even when taking into account what the costume can do.
Super strength, the lightning crest attack, the Mammoth Shield's energy beams and frost attack, and the God Horn sword.
(Yeah, it has the cannons on it's back, but I don't think they were ever used, and it's not really designed to fire them at anything other than targets directly above it)
Like, even when taking the live action limitations into account, the Megazord doesn't have all that much going for it. In comparison to an actual super robot, it does feel a little like a real robot

Well, the strongest mecha are usually brick mechas that specialize in raw fire power like a tank in sentai. Slimmer mecha suits and toys like the ones from Gekiranger and Hurrucanger possess better articulations and mobility are only used briefly for their speed. In one way to look at it, they're upholding their traditions, but on the other hand it's getting old. If you're talking about Voltron then Gundams and Autobots are on the same tier in terms of power and movement.

The new PR megazord is on the same tier too, however the toy version sucks in comparison to the playability of the Voltron toy that's also slightly cheaper.
