I can’t believe it... his voice for swindle imo actually felt like swindle and animated growing up was my childhood I could not imagine anybody doing a better Voice actor if animated ever gets its fully deserved fourth season, this has truly broken my heart and as Optimus prime would say “soon I shall be one with the matrix “
This is one of the saddest passings in TFs for me. I adore Animated Swindle, and I loved Fred Willard in everything he was in. This is really sad, my thoughts to his family. He was a wonderful, talented man.
Aw, man, bummer. Last time I saw him interviewed I was surprised by how much he’d aged… sad to see that he has passed, he was a funny man.
It feels really odd having voice actors from a series s relatively recent as Animated while we still have folks still alive who voiced during the G! era.
We really am going to miss that dude... he was both awesome and hilarious as Swindle! RIP, Mr Willard...
An old Swindle fig from Animated....looks like its seen better days....missing all eight fingers.....even the cannon....wish I still had mine...makes me wish Hasbro just did an Animated redux line....and did this guy for Wave 5...
For years I’ve brainstormed and considered my own TF series and a constant in every idea I had was Willard as Swindle. This just sucks.
It has been a catastrophe of a year....like what's next? Dinosaurs come back and we ride them on horse back..........OK that sounds pretty badass not gonna lie...
