The latest clip from the deleted audio scenes from the Sunbow Generation 1 Transformers cartoon is in fact a personal recording session between director Wally Burr and voice actor Frank Welker, as they try getting the purrfect pitch for Soundwave's cassette companion Ravage. Check it out below!

The audio contained within this video has been taken from an original cassette recording of a one-to-one studio session between Wally Burr (directing) and Frank Welker (performing), with the tape dated 9th August 1984.

The session features vocoded effects for Ravage and is from the Transformers Generation One series. The audio was recorded during the Season One sessions and was added to the end of a cassette containing the unslugged audio for War of the Dinobots along with audio of the Hound / Rumble fight from the episode More Than Meets The Eye.

This is the original audio from the tape.

Am I the only one who keeps misthinking that Wally voiced Blurr?

Should we rename this thread something more along the lines of "Sunbow G1 Deleted scene audio" since we are getting so many of these now?

Transformers At The Moon is at it once again, this time bringing us extended and deleted audio from the Sunbow G1 Episode "The Ultimate Doom Part 1." This nearly 5 minute long video includes some lines by Wally Burr when Dan Gilvezan was not present, as well as the full "Human Horde" section that was spliced up in the final reading. Take a listen below, as we continue to get these awesome recordings of the series that started it all!

Optimus Prime: Spike, we have information that Sparkplug has been taken to Cybertron.
Spike: Dad? On Cybertron? Optimus Prime, let me take Jetfire. We'll get him back. *amended*

**Amended Scene due to use of Jetfire rather than Skyfire **

Autobots: Cheer
Trailbreaker: Let's see the trajectory map, Jetfire. *amended*

Trailbreaker: There's our position now. When we reach this point, I'll activate a jammer beam to mess up their scanners.
Bumblebee: Uh-oh, I think it's too late. Look!
Wheeljack: Jetfire! Missile shields up! *amended*

----

REMOVED SCENE

Once on Cyberton Spike falls into a trap and is quickly followed by

Bumblebee. The Autobots send Brawn in to help.
Spike: Yahh-ooww
Bumblebee: I'm comin' with ya!
Wheeljack: Brawn, follow them! We won't fit!
Brawn: Gotcha, Wheeljack!
Spike: I blew it, guys. We're sunk now!
Brawn: Not yet, we aren't.
Bumblebee: What is it?
Brawn: A ventilator shaft. It might be a way out.
Bumblebee: You really think so?
Brawn: Got any better ideas?
Spike: Which way?

**A panel lowers down behind them, closing off their retreat.**
Brawn: Forward.

**The following scene was removed**
*NEW* Spike: It's getting warm in here!
*NEW* Spike: Ouch .. ooohh
*NEW* Spike: Ohh, this metal's hot as an oven!
*NEW* Brawn: Here, climb on.
*NEW* Spike: *breaths in*
*NEW* Brawn: Must be some kind of automatic security system. The heat is supposed to burn out any foreign substances ...like ..... us
*NEW* Bumblebee: I'm not a foriegn substance, this is my home planet!
*NEW* Spike: **gasping struggling for breath** I..I can't ... take ..much ... more

I can see why that last scene was removed. Spike sounded like he was about to kill over.

The latest offering in deleted Sunbow audio recordings from the original Transformers animated series from the Mapes twins comes in the form of as much Chris Latta as is apparently possible, along with director Wally Burr, without featuring an episode per se. Find out more below!

Today's previously unheared original Transformers Audio file is a little different to normal. There is no episode but instead we take a proper behind the scenes look as we listen in to a one-on-one recording session between Transformers greats Wally Burr (Director) and Chris Latta (Actor).

This session is known as the Laserbeak Library sessions, we hope you like it *sqwark sqwark*

:BOT:
Short answer: We kinda found out a little bit ago back when the "Fire on the Mountain" tapes were uploaded. ;)

Long answer:
Because of Welker's fame for doing animal sound effects, there is a longstanding tendency in Transformers fandom for his name to immediately be attributed to any random animal screech heard in the Generation 1 cartoon. This is not always correct, as evidenced by the discovery of unmodified voice recordings from Generation 1 episodes that reveal Chris Latta provided the squawks of Laserbeak, when the role had been attributed to Welker for over thirty years.
Till those tapes were released, no one questioned the notion of Welker doing all the "animal noise" voices himself.

We jump once more into the fray of newly-uncovered audio that went unused in the original Transformers G1 Sunbow cartoon but was nevertheless recorded based on earlier drafts! And this time we've got a rather special one on show -- courtesy of Chris McFeely's TFNation appearance, we have unused audio from the Season 1 finale "Heavy Metal War" along with the storyboards it was based on, so we get a good idea of how these deleted scenes would have gone! Check out all three deleted scenes - featuring Constructicons, Dinobots and Megatron turning into a jet - below or in this playlist and tell us what you think in the forums!





Re: Sunbow Transformers Wally Burr and Frank Welker on Ravage - Audio (1904571)
Posted by Bumblevivisector on August 15th, 2017 @ 9:38pm CDT
1st clip: We lost some nice establishing character beats for the Constructicons, but I'm kind of surprised that Scrapper and the storyboards consistently say Scavenger instead of Scrounge, since that name actually made it into the middle of the finished ep.

Sadly, no further insight into the Constructicons' origins, but not surprising since Donald F. Glut had them simply build the Dinobots too. "Then again, if we want to win this war, maybe I'll have Ratchet and Wheeljack make 40 or 50 more Dinobots, since we can apparently just make new, fully sentient Autobots on the fly!" Thank Primus for the Creation Matrix and ethical qualms of Marvel continuity.

2nd clip: After it was cut, Donald apparently just rewrote the Dinobot talent show for the beginning of Dinobot Island. Cool.

3rd clip: The release of the audio for Megatron's jet transformation times nicely with TR voyager Megs being on toy shelves. Almost a shame Blitzwing wasn't around to contribute his chip. Megatron's use of Rumble's power as a ranged attack is interesting, since it seems to be drawing from his tech spec use of ground-waves rather than piledrivers.

Say, did they already release clips for Countdown to Extinction and Plague of Insecticons, or were those skipped?

Here's a recording of the whole panel, minus the extended episode itself, as the recording ends right as the episode begins:



And here's the Unfinished Animation comparison from the panel:



The unfinished production masters (which Rhino used for their remastered DVDs) are shown on the left, while the finished broadcast masters are shown on the right.

Hi, those were skipped. Chris asked us about the Heavy Metal Wars audio late last year and it was decided to do the panel at TFNation as the storyboards were also available. We decided to slow down a little earlier this year to try to pace out the other releases so that it would be the next installment but due to day-to-day work and convention work we have fallen behind in the releases and so this is out of order. There are some additional pieces from this episode that we shall release and, hopefully, either my brother or I will get back to the audio release in the next fortnight.

Transformers at the Moon has some new goodies from us from days long past of Generation One involving some extended and deleted audio for two episodes The Ultimate Doom Part 3 and Countdown to Extinction. Check out the descriptions and embedded videos below!

This video contains audio that was cut from the Transformers Generation One episode The Ultimate Doom Part 3. The audio has been taken from an original slugged cassette tape from the original recording sessions. You can read a transcript of the dialogue in the description below The full script is available to download at http://bit.ly/2m4T8Ct thanks to Jim Sorenson and Chris McFeely

########### EXTENDED SCENE ###########

REFLECTOR: Energon cubes secured, leader.
MEGATRON: Excellent. I've left Starscream behind to prepare for the next tidal wave. When its force is harvested, we'll have all the energon cubes we need to revitalize Cybertron completely.
REFLECTOR: What about the flesh creature, Dr. Arkeville?
MEGATRON: He is of no further use to me.
**Note Shockwave's name was added later**
WHEELJACK: We had a run-in with Shockwave, Prime, and couldn't rescue Sparkplug. But we learned how the Decepticons are making Earth people into mind slaves.
OPTIMUS PRIME: That's good news. Do you have any plan to counteract their work?
WHEELJACK: Let's just say we're onto something that looks like a winner. BRAWN: If it works.
WHEELJACK: We'll field-test it when we take another crack at rescuing Sparkplug. *NEW*
WHEELJACK: In five thousand astro-seconds
*NEW* OPTIMUS PRIME: Good luck, Optimus Prime out.
*NEW* SHOCKWAVE: Prepare the human known as Sparkplug. His Autobot rescuers are in for a surprise!




Our series of deleted and extended audio from the Transformers Generation One series continues with Countdown to Extinction. You will note that Optimus Prime is not voiced by Peter Cullen in some scenes even though the correct dialogue is used. You can download the original script from http://bit.ly/2EjjdVP, thanks to Jim Sorenson and Chris McFeely.

RUMBLE: Let me blast him. I'll –
MEGATRON: Quiet! I always hit what I aim for, Prime. Stand clear.
OPTIMUS PRIME: Gladly. I hate standing at ground zero when an explosion is imminent. Or hadn't you noticed that your possession is in an unstable condition?
MEGATRON: Leave! I only want what's mine.
SHOCKWAVE: Megatron, come in! Megatron, this is Shockwave! Acknowledge! If you are functional, Megatron!
MEGATRON: Of course I'm functional! Call back later. I'm busy.
SHOCKWAVE: Megatron, you must find Dr. Arkeville's lab and disconnect the detonator on his exponential generator. It will explode any astrosecond!
OPTIMUS PRIME: A timing mechanism.

#################

### ACT 3 - Stand in Optimus Recordings ####

OPTIMUS PRIME: Careful, Megatron. It's still dangerous.
MEGATRON: Prime, I... I've been lost in my work.
OPTIMUS PRIME: Lost is an appropriate word. Your plaything has melted your housing.
MEGATRON: It's of no concern. I'll reduce temperature soon enough. Now get out of my way!
OPTIMUS PRIME: Anything you say, Megatron. I had to get this out of your hands!
MEGATRON: Nuuh! Give it back! OPTIMUS PRIME: Careful! It's at a critical stage! It's going to explode!
MEGATRON: Not here if I can help it! Ruhh! MEGATRON: No time to argue, Prime. Hold this while I transform.
MEGATRON: Now load me.
OPTIMUS PRIME: Fire!

####################################

### ACT 3 - Stand in Optimus Recordings ####

Coming so soon after the holiday season, did all the takes of Insecticons eating remind anyone else of A Christmas Story?

"Okay Randy, now show mommy how the piggies eat!"

And then Kickback's internal cackling veered so close to Donald Duck that it sounded like a crank call from the New York Ripper!

"Stupid! You're all so stupid! WAKHK-WAHK-WAAAAAAAAHKHKHKHK!"

Here's hoping they keep this coming all the way through The Rebirth!
(Disclaimer: I still hate that 3-parter, but would love to hear the slightest edited line that sheds light on what might have been if David Wise hadn't had to cut down his original 5-episode script)

This...absolutely blew my mind.

When the cartoon was on tv, I wasn't really old enough to understand what I was seeing. The first Transformers series that I grew up enjoying was Beast Wars, and I bought the 5 Rhino DVD boxsets later to go through the original cartoon that I had missed. All this time, I thought those hilarious errors were a part of the times and added a level of natural entertainment to the series. Now, I'm finding out that what I'm watching is actually not what aired on television but actually an unfixed version of it? :lol: :lol: :lol: I'm ok with this. Will likely get the Shout Factory copies to go with my Rhino copies now, so I can make a slideshow of all the errors.

TF fan site TFAt TM have posted another installment of their absolutely incredible series of audio clips from the original G1 Transformers cartoon! Pertaining this time to the episode "Heavy Metal War" specifically, the audio gives us not only behind the scenes banter from the likes of Wally Burr, but also extended or deleted scenes! These extra bits and pieces are fascinating to listen to, and they give more context and flesh to these stories we thought we knew so well!

The folks over at TFatTM have posted the newly released audio in YouTube video format, which we've mirrored down below! Below that is a transcript of what you're hearing that highlights who's talking, as well as what's new and/or extended! For more details, visit TFatTM's article via the link above!

*NEW* HOOK: With my usual finesse, Scrapper?

*NEW* MEGATRON: You see Starscream,

MEGATRON: My Constructicons have returned to our temporary base right on schedule. They were worth the time we spent building them in these caverns.

*NEW* IRONHIDE: Oh, get on with it! You take longer to say something than a slow-motion mechano-mouth with the glitch!

*NEW* WHEELJACK: Uh, yes. As you know the Dinobots have always been unpredictable ... and kind of clumsy sometimes ... But I've been reprogramming them ... so just watch!

*NEW* CHIP: Well I'm impressed

OPTIMUS PRIME: Very well. Speak, Megatron.

MEGATRON: I come about a matter of Cybertron law, Optimus Prime. Our war has gone on for millions of years -- Decepticons fighting Autobots

*NEW* MEGATRON: with no end or victory in sight

*NEW* OPTIMUS PRIME: A sad but unavoidable truth so long as you seek to dominate the universe.

*NEW* MEGATRON: Nuy Cybertron Law may provide a solution to our seeming dilemma. I refer to the age-old code of combat

MEGATRON: in which opposing leaders -- you and I, Optimus Prime -- may do battle. The loser must exile himself and his army to deep space for eternity. The winner may stay where he chooses. Do you have the courage for that?

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

MEGATRON: I now have the strength of all my Decepticons.

*NEW* MEGATRON: The unsuspecting Optimus Prime is as good as beaten! (laughs)

*NEW* STARSCREAM: With all due respect, Megatron -- I suggest you not celebrate your victory prematurely ... as there might be one flaw in your otherwise flawless plan.

*NEW* MEGATRON: And what might that be, "loyal" Starscream?

STARSCREAM: The Autobots' computer, Teletraan 1... if it detects your deception, it will alert Optimus Prime.

MEGATRON: It won't!

*NEW* MEGATRON: Teletraan 1 has already been accounted for in my master plan.

MEGATRON: Scrapper, you and the others have your orders. Constructicons, transform!

*NEW* MEGATRON: I chose these caverns as a temporary base because of their nearness to Autobot Headquaters.

MEGATRON: While all the Autobots are assembled to watch my combat with Optimus Prime, my Constructicons will tunnel their way beneath those headquarters, then enter the control room and destroy Teletraan 1! (Laughs) Optimus Prime won't know what hit him! (Laughs)

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

OPTIMUS PRIME: The code specifies a fair battle, Spike. Under those rules I'm confident I can beat Megatron.

*NEW* IRONHIDE: And if Megatron tries anything cute, we'll rotate his circuits!

*NEW* OPTIMUS PRIME: No, Ironhide. The law of Cybertron must be obeyed and Autobot honour must be preserved. I will fight Megatron alone. I have given my word.

OPTIMUS PRIME: Besides, if he does not abide by the rules, Teletraan 1 will tell us.

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

*NEW* CHIP: According to my calculations, you shouldn't have much trouble Optimus. Your strength is far greater than Megatron's.

*NEW* SPIKE: Stomp him good, Optimus! He's had it coming for a long, long time.

*NEW* OPTIMUS PRIME: I will do my best not to fail you -- the other Autobots -- or the Earth.

*NEW* SPIKE: I know you won't! You're not a quitter!

*NEW* SPARKPLUG: Hey, guys, I think we're here!

OPTIMUS PRIME: Autobots, transform!

IRONHIDE: Okay, we're here! Where's the opposition?

CHIP CHASE: That answer your question, Ironhide?

*NEW* STARSCREAM: Without our power chip rectifiers we're lucky we can still fly, Megatron!

*NEW* MEGATRON: I wouldn't want you walking to the show, that might tip our hand!

*NEW* STARSCREAM: You will remember to return our chips ounce you've used them against Optimus Prime, won't you?

*NEW* IRONHIDE: Strange -- some of those crumbs usually like to show off by changing to their jetplane modes.

*NEW* RATCHET: No biggie, Ironhide. They probably don't want to take the spotlight away from Megatron.

MEGATRON: Hail Optimus Prime, and welcome to defeat!

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

*NEW* CHIP: Give it to him!

SPARKPLUG WITWICKY: Go, Optimus!

STARSCREAM: And the use of my null ray, too.

*NEW* OPTIMUS PRIME: He never .. did that before!

*NEW* RATCHET: This doesn't print out right! How'd Megatron get so versatile?

*NEW* SPARKPLUG: C'mon, Optimus! You can do it!

SKYWARP: You should see me do that when I've got my power chip.

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

IRONHIDE: Way to go, Prime! You're not down yet!

*NEW* MEGATRON: Foolish move. I knew you were going to do that!

*NEW* WHEELJACK: Megatron read Prime's thoughts just like Soundwave!

MEGATRON: (Laughs) You cannot blast what you cannot see!

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

SPIKE WITWICKY: I can't believe it.

CHIP CHASE: Optimus Prime... beaten by Megatron.

*NEW* RATCHET: Prime's gonna need repairs, Wheeljack

OPTIMUS PRIME: Ohhhh...

SPIKE WITWICKY: He's functional

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

SCRAPPER: There's Teletraan 1! For Megatron, destroy it!

*NEW* LONGHAUL: *Dialogue missing*

*NEW* SCRAPPER: Then fight! But remember -- the computer is our main objective!

SLUDGE: Sludge not see these Decepticons before.

SNARL: Not see again, either, because we dynamite them to pieces!

*NEW* SWOOP: Let's finish 'em fast!

*NEW* BONECRUSHER: Blast him! Reduce him to metallic dust!

HOOK: It's bad news, Scrapper. They've brought out the heavy artillery.

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EXTENDED SCENE **

SPIKE WITWICKY: Hey... check that out! What is it?

*NEW* SLAG: Dinobots no fool around!

IRONHIDE: Our Dino-buddies! We gotta help!

*NEW* OPTIMUS PRIME: No, Ironhide! Remember the law!

*NEW* MEGATRON: That's right -- you must keep your honor ... and obey the law!

*NEW* STARSCREAM: We could join the battle -- if we still had out powers.

*NEW* MEGATRON: My Devastator needs to help in vanquishing these Dinoboy oafs

IRONHIDE: Uhh... sorry about that.

** EXTENDED SCENE **



** EFFECTS AND ADDITIONAL LINE **

WALLY: Okay, let's have all the Autobots say "let's go to it", here we go 1, 2,3

AUTOBOT SFX

WALLY: Humans .. mix in with that, the same thing, humans at 155 and ...

AUTOBOT SFX

*NEW* OPTIMUS PRIME: I have a plan to defeat that giant robot.

DEVASTATOR: Nothing defeats the Devastator! Nothing!

You know, if Megatron had turned into his jet mode like he was originally going to in this episode, I bet more people would have been more receptive of the non-gun altmodes that G1 Megatron's newer toys would get over the years.

I think it was an interesting idea but glad that it didn't make the cut. It's just too much to tack on their power chip rectifiers. I think mostly they did a really good job editing the episodes down to 22 mins. But nonetheless I really enjoy listening to these extended clips / behind the scene stuff. Thanks again, At the Moon!

Megatron's nixed temporary jet-mode reminds me of his Titans Return toy, both have the fusion cannon underneath.
