A third version/series of Voltron based on yet another Japanese series, Lightspeed Electroid Albegas, was also in progress, but it was dropped when World Events Productions joined with Toei to make new GoLion-based shows, due to that show's popularity over the Dairugger run. Because the World Events producers greatly preferred GoLion to Daltanious, the GoLion episodes were adapted instead, going on to become the most popular portion of the original Voltron run. When requesting master tapes from Toei Animation for translation purposes, the World Events Productions producers requested " ones with the lion." Mistakenly, Toei then proceeded to ship World Events copies of Beast King GoLion, another "combining-robot" cartoon which featured lion-shaped fighting robot starships.

The Japanese series Future Robot Daltanious was originally planned to be adapted by World Events Productions as part of Voltron. The series was an immediate hit in the United States, topping the syndication market for children's programs in the mid-1980s. Since they had no means of translating the Japanese series into English, Keefe and Cofod surmised the plots, commissioned writer Jameson Brewer to write all-new dialogue, edited out the more violent scenes, and remixed the audio into stereo format. Peter Keefe was brought aboard as Executive Producer, with Franklin Cofod as the Director. Ted Koplar assembled a team in Los Angeles to transform GoLion into what would become Voltron.
