yeah, case in point: Zarkon in voltron had a whole planet of slaves working for him to build robeasts for voltron to pummel....
Go figure. Zarkon was too cheap to hire actual workers and motivate them to create robeasts out of pride. It's funny when I look at it... Here we have galactic empires with a ton of resources to build their war machines, yet they seek the cheapest way to build their weapons. If Zarkon had actually invested what was needed to create high quality robeasts Voltron would be a pile of junk now. Then again if he did that he wouldn't be the evil ruler of an evil empire anymore, and the kids at the time who watched the show wouldn't have anything to watch. I guess there's a balance for everything...
