Indeed, precisely what PRangerX said.

While Voltron and Power Rangers are similar in concept, Power Rangers actually is adapted from a Sentai series that first started all the way back in 1975 by a Japanese company called Toei.

However Voltron was a joint venture between Toei's Animation department as well as Worlds Events Productions.

Voltron used footage from the 81-82 series caled "Beast King GoLion" as well as the 82-83 series which was called "Armored Fleet Dairugger XV."
