David Kaye is Optimus Prime??? Woahwoahwoah! That's just a little crazy... I am totally interested now! I cannot wait to see how he goes from being the baddest of the baddies to... Optimus Prime! Very excited, indeed...

David playing Optimus(and a few others) is kinda old news.

Also I think the name of the decepticon with the hook is Lockdown.
So nothing on Soundwave?

mmmm... profile goodness. Megatron should fill in some story gaps.

I'm eager to read a profile for Swoop someday, as he seems to be G1 swoop turned into a minicon.

It wasn't that great. And wouldn't you be better off holding back your crits of it till you've seen it properly?

Did the figures have final coloring,
and if so what were Megatron's colors?

I can't wait for Animated!

It'll either prove us wrong and shut us up, or just suck and go away and we can move on to the next thing.

Either Way...

Interesting...
Still not worth the exorbitant membership fee.

I really wish I had this issue. Not really sure if I wanna join the Collector's Club, but this issue sounds quite interesting, particularly the LilFormers piece. I'm guessing the issue doesn't show Animated Shockwave yet? I'm dying to know what he looks like.

I'd like to see the Megatron profile. Other than that, I can take it or leave it.

david kaye sucks just like 90% of the canadian voice actors.

obviously, peter cullen isn't one of those shitty ones. and welker isn't canadian (which a lot of you just dont get)

it'd be nice if they got the real voices, which was 50% of why the original show did so well... ever since G1 the line of shows have been a 20 year long fizzle. .. awesome..

Actually David Kaye is very personable and funny.

He also can do voices practically as well as Scott McNeil on the fly.

Love his Botcon segment. He was the crap. I still giggle when I think about BW Megatron playing golf versus Animated Optimus Prime. It was hilarious!!!
