Tara Strong. Sounds like a superhero name.

Looks like they're trying to get the whole cast. I hope they do. This would make for a great BotCon is they get everyone.

Wait a minute. Wasn't she Ben 10 himself? And The Powerpuff girls Bubbles? And if I remember right she did some voices for that Drawn Together show on Comedy Central.

Other than being the dumbest character on animated, (I'm tired of Sari learning her lesson one episode and completely going back to being reckless with that key by the next one) why is she here as the special guest?

Shouldn't special guests have done something more for Transformers than to do than be a voice for one show?

3 out of the 4 guests are voice actors from Animated. Simple as that. Now if only they could get Corey Burton and Tom Kenny as well.

She's gorgeous. She's the only reason I'd attend BotCon.

She also does Teletran 1 (Yes, one a), and Daniel. One's useful and homages G1, the other's Daniel.

I also see lots of people stalking her in this topic. How... odd. She's married anyway.

How does thinking someone is cute translate into being a stalker? **** man, I want to be in the front row so I can hopefully ask a question or two and still be able to hear what she says.

That annoys me on Youtube videos, not being able to hear. Given the drab quality of Youtube files in any case (Knocking sound off sync, having it recorded on a camera phone, ect), those able to attend are really able to rub it in the faces of those who can't go.

Also, now that I've got the reaction I wanted I can stop saying that and now say this.

Eh, she's good.

I agree with wanting to be in the front row for this panel. Yes, she is very attractive, but it would be quite a privlege to hear a voice actor who has done such a broad range of characters. It is interesting to hear just how much (or how little) of the persons every day manner of speech comes through in the characters they voice, and unless the microphones are tweaked properly, only those in the first few rows really get that sense. Now, whether or not any male in the first few rows actually pulls his wits together long enough to pay attention to such things with Tara there will remain to be seen. (at my age I could actually pull that off, a thought which even now still boggles my mind. Getting older really sucks)
