Michael V said 'Octo-1 is a playground.'

Octo-1 is an exciting addition to the action-packed drama Voltes V: Legacy.

A red octopus robot developed by Little Jon (Raphael Landicho), it is dubbed as the sixth member of the Voltes V team because of its ability to fly, do various analyses, and process information.

Octo-1 is voiced by Michael V who is a certified Voltes V fan.

In his Instagram post on Tuesday, July 11, the Kapuso comedian shared his experience on giving life to the cute robot.

He said, "OCTO-1 is a PLAYGROUND. 🐙

"Sobrang saya ko dito sa character na 'to! Watch this week's very exciting story arc!

"Thanks again GMA for letting me play as the 6th member of the Voltes Team. #VoltesVLegacy"
