The Moonbase 2 Podcast has reported that Frank Welker has received a package from Paramount. That's about it. They say it's from a reliable source who works for USPS. What could the parcel be? Could it be the script for Revenge of the Fallen? Let the speculation begin!

Seibertron.com member Ultra Primal has just informed us that the fellow Transfans and podcasters over at Moonbase 2 have reported some interesting information.

According the podcast, Transformers original voice actor Frank Welker has received a package, via the United States Postal Service directly from Paramount Pictures.

What could this mean? Could it mean that Transfans voices have been heard and we will see the return of a TF legend?

Click here to here the podcast for yourself and let the speculation continue.

you know, i wasnt even thinking of soundwave..that makes sense since he's supposed to be in this one. lol

but my first thought was megatron...if the rumor of his return is true they could explain a different voice with the damage he suffered in the first movie.

playing the movie game showed that welker still had it and the old voice worked fine with the new style.

but its probably soundwave, which would still be awesome.

Wouldn't it be cool to see a cameo of Peter Cullen and Frank Welker in the movie? Kind of like how Stan Lee is in every Marvel movie.

Peter and Frank could be sitting outside a cafe with Lou Richards as their waiter. :lol:

Let's remember that Frank Welker didn't just voice Megatron and Soundwave... perhaps they wanted a barking sound for movie Ravage. ;-)

Okay, let's see, Welker also voiced... Blades, Buzzsaw, Chromedome, Frenzy, Galvatron, Groove, Laserbeak, Megatron, Mirage, Mixmaster, Ratbat, Ravage, Rumble, Skywarp, Sludge, Steeljaw, Superion, Trailbreaker, Wheelie, Spoilsport, the Sharkticons, Teletrann 2... and so many others.

I hope he doesn't open the package only to find a photo of Hollywood giving him a long, bony middle finger.

Let's hope it's good news!

i have to disagree with you there stan wasnt in every marvel movie that there was to made he wasnt in blade 1,2,3, howard the duck or the xmen movies may not be even in wolverine orgins movie which is kinda funny he created the xmen but he wasnt in any of the movies but he did create the hulk which was in the the sequel type of much but not in the first hulk movie.

manthing, punisher elektra, daredevil, ghost rider wasnt just thought i piont that out for the stan lee fans so they dont buy every marvel movie that was made.


be great if plays soundwave get his orginal voice in there no one can do a better soundwave than him

My life would be complete if Mr. Welker made it to TFM2! Here's hoping and praying.

We also need to have him re-record all Megatron's lines from the 2007 movie, so we can go back and fix that film. Then we just need Dan Gilvezan to record Bumblebee's line in the film, and I might be happy with it. Of course having Cullen re-record Ironhide would make it perfect.

This is the best news, or hint of news, surrounding TF2, so far.

I really hope this is related to Soundwave.

Also he could easily do the voice of Megtaron also. It can be easily explained that his TF1 voice was damaged due to the Allspark.

Stan Lee was in X-Men 1. He played a hot dog vendor and I believe its the scene where Senator Kelly is walking out of the ocean as a mutant. He was also in X-Men: The Last Stand as a waterhose man (nop idea what that is).

For the record here are the Marvel movies he was in:
# The Incredible Hulk (2008) (uncredited) .... Milwaukee Man Drinking From Bottle
# Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007) .... Rejected Wedding Guest
# Spider-Man 3 (2007) .... Man in Times Square
# X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) .... Waterhose Man
# Fantastic Four (2005) .... Willie Lumpkin
# Spider-Man 2 (2004) .... Man Dodging Debris
# Hulk (2003) .... Security Guard
# Daredevil (2003) .... Old Man at Crossing
# Spider-Man (2002) (uncredited) (unconfirmed) .... Man in Fair
# Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV (2000) (voice) (as Peter Parker) .... Prologue/Epilogue Narrator
# Spider-Man (2000) (VG) (voice) .... Narrator
# X-Men (2000) .... Hot Dog Vendor

Basically anything any movie he had an association with in making he cameo'd in.

And btw Frank Welker has to at least voice a TF in the movie and Soundwave would be perfect.

But if Ravage is in the movie then Welker would do animal noises. Apparently any animated movie or show with animal noises is done by Welker.

Eh, I kinda disagree. I'd love to see him return as Soundwave, but he sounded very cartoony in the game. I can see why they chose Agent Smith instead.

Just out of curiosity... what does everyone think of a USPS employee revealing a persons confidential mail to the public? Even though this individual did not open the mail, he still violated Frank Welker's privacy. Just wondering...

You forgot to list that Stan was in Iron Man- as Hugh Hefner!
