    I bloody love Dan Gilvezan. He is one of my heroes. I had the pleasure of chatting with him at Auto Assembly in 2008 and he was one of the nicest people I have ever met. Bumblebee has never been as good as when Dan voiced him back in the 80s. A true gentleman and a real talent. :bowdown:

    Looked about the same as the Robotmasters DVD cartoons to me.
    Oh and he still sounded mostly like Bumblebee but he seemed less like Spider-Man now he's aged (even though they had the same voice originally), the older voice seems to work Ok for the Character - If TF Prime Bee sounded like that I'd be fine with that.

    I'll say "or what" since you can go buy Quaddy a TF for Christmas with it. :D 

    I hope I can pick this book up soon, as I think it will be a good read.

    Holding out for Barnes and Noble (especially if they do a Nook version).

    A cool commercial (Gilvezan can still pull off his BB voice pretty much perfectly!) for what is likely a very cool book. Now I gotta think of who can get it for me for Christmas... : D

    Yeah, besides Meiko, R2D2 Bee is one of the few off-putting things about the show (and Raf being able to understand Bee for no apparent reason doesn't really add much to either of their characters for me). I'm no G1 VA's HAVE to do the voices nostalgia hog (but Cullen still rules!) but clearly Dan's still got it there, even thought the animation wasn't the greatest it gave me a bit of the warm n' fuzzies.

    ^This. or voicing him a series that takes place after the Great War and Bumblebee is old veteran that still got a youthful personality.

    Wooo, finished Lance Henriksen's a few days ago and need something new to read while sitting here being a sicky! And rewatch Aliens with my new appreciation for what went behind Bishop. Not so much about Lockdown, but he was mentioned.

    and you can read the first chapter for free. Cool.

    For a second I thought he sounded a bit more like Gears, but that's played by another guy.
