## Strengths/Pros

The **Robeasts** are the monsters of the Drule Empire that are sent to fight the two Voltrons of the Galaxy Alliance.

The robeasts from planet Doom were created through superscience and/or Haggar's magic, some of them simply being giant robots piloted by Doom soldiers or fully automated.

The Drule robeasts that battled the Explorer were uniformly technology based.

The Robeasts from planet Doom sent to battle the Voltron Lion Force are reared in gladiatorial combat and are humanoid monsters created through a combination of superscience and Haggar's magic, usually from prisoners of war, though some of them are volunteers while others are simply giant robots piloted by Doom soldiers.

The Drule Robeasts that battle the Explorer and the Voltron Vehicle Force are uniformly technology based and mostly piloted by Drule soldiers.

At the time of the Voltron series, the Drule Empire and the Galaxy Alliance were at war in which the war had funded Zarkon in conquering various planets and destroyed the Planet Aris's morale and resulted in the capture of various, men, women, children and elderly people of all races of the worlds Zarkon invaded.

## Weaknesses/Flaws

However the Drule Empire had another problem besides the war. Due to centuries if not more of wasting their planet's resources on war and a growing threat from their own sun, Planet Drule was going to explode. This led to the exploration rivalry between the Drules and the Galaxy Alliance, which only learned late in the Vehicle series of the Drules' plight.

Late in the Lion series' first season, the main Drule leadership grew tired of Zarkon conquering and looting worlds he was supposed to turn over to them, and caused him to be briefly unseated by his son Lotor. Yet for all this, the Drule leadership's backstabbing and paranoia cost them many potential worlds, including ones the Alliance flatly ceded to them. The field commanders and the leadership also frequently thwarted efforts by the troubled Drule patriot Hazar to make peace with the Alliance and more quickly find his people a replacement world. The Galaxy Alliance had problems of its own, its leadership dismissing the Drule threat until Earth itself came under attack.
