    Ok, I'm losing paitents. No, it not because it's near the movie and We should be hearing about Wheeljack and Mirage toys, It's because it's near the movie and we still have not heard online in this site who is voicing who. so far someone heard that voice actors on IMDB and some of the voice actors you have heard of probably won't be in it. example: Corey Burton's insperation David Warner was rumoured to voice Shockwave. But on IMDB it says Frank Welker aka the guy who is voicing Soundwave is voicing Shockwave. now I can't really think of how Frank can pull it off. Do you believe he is voicing Shockwave?

    I don't think Frank Welker's the voice of Shockwave. And IMDB cannot be trusted.

    It doesn't really matter. Shockwave has one or two English lines, and the rest is all either Russian or Cybertronian growling. No big speaking role, no memorable lines, etc, he's just a most of the time silent badass.

    Well, Shockwave has very few lines in English I believe, so I do not think it will really matter who voices him

    Wouldn't surprise me. The guy can do all kinds of voices. Plus, using him to voice Shockwave in addition to Soundwave would be a means of saving money.

    I was hoping for someone badass like Doug Bradley, but considering Shockwave apparently isn't going to say very much, there's no point in that. :(

    John Tobin (Who plays Nixon in DOTM) confirmed the IMDB listings as legit to me on FB. Its real. Deal with it.

    It's hard to say now that they are saying:

    David Warner
    Mark Ryan
    Bill Fagerbakke
    James Avery

    all cut from the film.

    David Warner was never IN it.

    James Avery and Bill Fagerbakke were indeed confirmed, but things change.

    And Mark Ryan not voicing Bumblebee is no surprise.

    I hope Michael Bay voices Shockwave, would be so awesome.

    "Driller, I demmand you to be AWESOME."

    That or Jeremy Irons.
    But I would be cool with Frank Welker or Mark Ryan as well.

    I suggest taking a deep breath, and remember - it's only a movie.

    It's not me, I have a lot of people around me who browze through Transformers movie toys, and they actually say that. I don't think Micheal Bays Movie are thrash, I love them.
