    He was a way more memorable Barricade than Jess Harnell.

    I think he'd make a really cool Obsidian based on the Vehicon general from Beast Machines, but honestly I can think of a few characters I'd like to hear him try voicing, even Optimus himself. Imagine an Optimus that sounded like Goliath from Gargoyles.

    That would be perfect. Add a little reverb and it's a better G1 Omega Supreme voice.


    EDIT: For those not in the know, Keith David has one of the most manly voices in existence. He's right up there in the Manliest Voices Hall of Fame with Chuck D. and Kevin Conroy.

    Marvel Blaster. Ideally, I would go with Ice-T in this role, but I think Keith would work well as Marvel Blaster as well.

    Heck yes.


    Also, in the event that Peter Cullen or Frank Welker wouldn't be able to anymore, I'd love to hear him as either Optimus or Megatron.
    He could also play a character like Straxus, while we're at it.

    I second, third and infinity the vote for tarn.

    I think hed probably make a good Tracks or Sunstreaker, really anyone with an attitude or sarcastic personality.

    Then hell, have him voice his rival like Tarn, Barricade, or Swindle.

    JUST GET THIS MAN IN THIS FRANCHISE!!!!! IN THE AGE OF SHIT VA'S WE NEED LEGENDS!

    Thinking about it more, I think he could do a pretty good job as an IDW-style Fortress Maximus.

    Having replayed the DS game in recent times, I'd like to see him back as Barricade.
