Run, don't walk, to your nearby Xbox 360 console.  You do keep it with you at all times, don't you?

Currently available on the Xbox Video Marketplace is the pilot episode of Voltron: Defender of the Universe, absolutely free.  Featuring the Lion Voltron (aka "Cheater Voltron"), the episode introduces the cartoon series as the fantastic fivesome does battle against Yurak.  It's yours to keep forever, and all it takes is a quick download!  How can you argue with that?

Oh sure, Lion Voltron kinda is a cheater, and has some cheap moves used in battle, but no matter how you shake it, Voltron is awesome, even 25 years later.  And if you like it, there are plenty of other episodes of Voltron on the Xbox Video Marketplace.

I think just for future reference you should say if content is only available in the US or is country specific as Europe now has its own video market place
