after Rollbar's VA has passed away, Movor's VA now passed away. Information has just started to go around, but we've found out that Robert Axelrod has passed. To Digimon fans, Axelrod would be best known as Armadillomon (and his evolutions Ankylomon and Shakkoumon) in the dub of Adventure 02 and Wizardmon in Adventure, among other characters. He was probably best known to most overall as Lord Zedd from Power Rangers, along with monster creator Finster and a number of other monsters. Axelrod hadn't been well for an extended period of time (recovering from a major surgery that had complications), and the post from Sheryl Mandel (his publicist) suggests it was just the extended period of not being well... "My closest friend and client dear Robert Axelrod has passed away. His poor body could not fight anymore...." R.I.P
Just reported by Unicron.com, confirmed on facebook by Sandi Selner (Alpha 5) and Barbara Goodson (Rita Repulsa).
Sad week for RID fans. I met Robert a few years ago at a local anime convention, he was a real nice guy . RIP
This is sad news. I know his health was declining, at some point early last year he had to cancel all convention appearances. I met him a few years ago too, very nice guy and genuinely excited to see a toy of one of his characters. RIP tbs
