Neil Kaplan Returns to Transformers

Postby Raymond T. » Wed May 20, 2009 6:07 pm

Voice actor Neil Kaplan, who may be best known as the voice of Optimus Prime in the Robots In Disguise Transformers cartoon, is set to return to the Transformers Universe.

The actor will make his voice be heard in the upcoming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen video game, giving voice to the characters Long Haul and Protectobot. Kaplan made the following announcement on his facebook page.

"I am THRILLED to announce my return to the "Transformers Universe". This summer you can find my work on "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen". This brilliant video game is from the geniuses at Activision. I play both sides of the fence as Decepticon - Long Haul and Autobot - Protectobot. So... I can help you save or destroy the Earth. Just try to let me know ahead of time... nothing worse then tearing down what was meant to be saved.


Your Buddy,
Neil Kaplan

Oh, yes, he was a very good Prime.

That's awesome. Next to Cullen's Prime, Kaplan's was my fav. R.I.D. Prime was so badass. And based on the interviews of him I've seen and read, he seems like a great person too. Glad to hear this.

After Cullen, his Prime is cool. Don't like the other 2 guys at all.

Cool! Nice to see Neil back in the TF Universe in some shape or form. It was his OP voice that got me back into TF. Nice bloke in person too.
