I don't care if he was at last year's or how many times he's been there before, he's a true class act and honestly by now his voice work has to put him right up there with the legendary voice actors as far as Transformers is concerned.

I mean, he's continually been doing voices for 12 YEARS!

That's as much or more than Cullen, Welker and Latta combined.

wtf are you talking about? Cullen has been doing voices a loooong time. He did it back in the 80s.

Yes he did, but Cullen only did Ironhide and Prime in one show, and then in the 07 Movie.
Kaye has been doing voices since Beast Wars continually, which means, non-stop!

I'm pretty sure Cullen and Welker have been doing other voices too though, as much as you may not like to hear it the world does NOT revolve around Transformers.


Besides, Gary Chalk FTW.

But that's what he meant in the first post!
That David is by now right up there with the rest of the legendary TF voice actors, in the TF cartoon voice world!
Just read his first post!

And that about the world not revolve around just the TFs, I know that, but you seem to forget that sometimes, Nightscream guy!

Yeah, I was speaking only as far as Transformers was concerned, that's the point. David Kaye's experience in the business overall might not be as much as Cullen's and especially Welker's (Frank was doing the original Scooby Doo in the 1960's among other things) but he's been around longer than you think. His first voice acting gig was as General hawk on the DIC GI Joe series which I believe started in 1989 or so.

And he's a true class act, one of the most entertaining guys and nicest people you will ever meet.
