    Funny. I was imagining him sounding like Orthopox/Zim.

    I’m pretty bad at voice actor names. But to me it’s like this.


    Orion Pax sounds like Peter Cullen.

    Megatron sounds like Frank Welker.

    Bumblebee has the voice of Johnny Young Bosh from the War For Cybertron game.

    Windblade has her Prime Wars cartoon voice.

    Ironhide sounds like Peter Cullen.

    Chromia sounds like Arcee from Prime.

    And Prowl has my voice for some reason.

    I don’t really have any actors for Cyclonus, Rubble though. They have distinct voices to me but they’re voices that just sound off in my head that I don’t know of anyone who has them.

    I'd definitely say Prowl sounds like J. Michael Tatum (Iida from MHA)

    Some of my other ideas so far...
    • Bumblebee - Dylan O'Brien
    • Orion Pax - Christopher Sabat
    • Ironhide - Jess Harnell
    • Termagax - Stephanie Young
    • Cyclonus - Gray Haddock
    • Flamewar - Tara Strong
    • Sideswipe - Clifford Chapin
    • Barricade and Wheeljack would both be voiced by Steve Blum

    I'm reading Shockwave as a creepier version of Corey Burton's performance.

    Six Shot definitely sounds like Patrick Seitz, and Shadow Striker kinda sounds like Kari Wahlgren.

    Oh, and Megatron would be voiced by Jason Marnocha.

    Same here, mixed with a little Ryûsei Nakao. I've also been having a easier time hearing Tim Curry as Megatron with all the speeches he's been giving the last few issues.

    I'm also using Animated's Townsend Coleman for Sentinel Prime despite not having the Tick-esque design here. The loud, boisterous voice seems to work here to contrast with Optimus.

    My mind's having a tough time settling on Soundwave. It wants to use the classic Welker voice, but doesn't seem to sync that with his dialogue in the reboot.

    Personally, I've thought about using Jon Bailey's Soundwave as a voice for now. It's really hard to pinpoint how Soundwave's voice would sound honestly.

    IDW2 would have all my money if it released a cartoon that gave zero shits and allowed this Tim Curry to voice Megatron:

    I could only see Gary Chalk as being a pre-rebuilt by Alpha Trion Orion Pax, but being as that's not a case in this reality,

    I could see Christopher Judge (Tealq from Stargate/Kratos God of War 4) as Orion Pax/Optimus Prime

    Every character sounds like the actors from the first Resident Evil game.

    Sixshot for me is definitely Steve Blum (Zabuza's voice in particular. Hell, they both wear masks too).

    I’ve got a VA for Nautica, but the sudden gender reveal of Road Rage makes casting her harder.
