As I read the IDW series (MTMTE and Dark Cybertron more specifically) I noticed that I read every character's voice differently. So I'm curious to see who you hear for each character as well.

Here's the voices I hear when I read the IDW Comic series'(Forewarned there is no direct order and I know certain characters are missing):

Rodimus Prime - Will Friedle
Drift - Ryan Reynolds
Ultra Magnus - Robert Stack
Tarn - Ron Pearlman
Overlord - David Kaye (BW Megatron)
Whirl - Nolan North (Deadpool)
Brainstorm - Stephan Merchant
Pharma - John C. McGinley
First Aid - Zach Braff
Ambulon - Donald Faison
Ratchet - Corey Burton (TFA Ratchet)
Rung - David Hyde Pierce
Fort Max - Adam Baldwin
Sideswipe - Chris Pine
Sunstreaker- Robert Downey Jr.
Shockwave - Steve Blum (FoC Shockwave)
Soundwave - Frank Welker
Megatron - Fred Tasicorne (WFC/FoC Megatron)
Starscream - Sam Riegel
Optimus Prime - Peter Cullen
Nova Prime - Garry Chalk
Galvatron - Corey Burton (TFA Megatron(
Jhiaxus - Willem Dafoe
Pyro - David Kaye (TFA Optimus)
Rotorstorm - (Bruce Campbell)
Springer - Nathan Fillion

(More to come once I can put names to faces)

I know this thread is kind old, but I wanted to ask the same question. So I wanted to make sure there wasn't already a thread for it - which there is, so here goes.

1. Optimus/Orion Pax: Gary Chalk, as Peter Cullen sounds too old to me to be a serious field warrior.
2. Megatron: Hugo Weaving (more like Agent Smith, less like movie Megs).
3. Ultra Magnus: Robert Stack, mixed with a bit of Vin Diesel, for all the sense that makes.
4.Prowl: Freddie Prinze jr. Wierd, I know, but it's just his voice, and that kind of half-ass, almost Boston/mMexican accent of his. If it's any consolation, he was in the last season of 24 - yeah, I know - it's not.
5. Ratchet: Jeffry Combs, his VA from TF: Prime. It just fits the character so well.
6. Galvatron: Leonard Nimoy
7. Nova Prime: David Kaye a la Armada Megatron; more echo-y, less melodramatic than BW Megs.
8. Shockwave: a cross between Corey Burton and David Sobolov.
9. Bludgeon (circa Stormbringer): John DiMaggio doing General Grievous. It's awesome.
10. Cyclonus: Liam Neeson. That quiet badassery is perfect for this bot trying to find where he belongs. Trust me - try to read his lines with Neeson's voice...then read them WITHOUT Neeson's voice. You can't. It's too awesome.
