    Default Most annoying G1 character

    I was watching some G1 about 20 mins go.. I wasn't paying any attention to what eps. But I realized that there are a few bots that really annoy me. just the voices and personality's of the characters.

    Such as, for me, Cozmos. His voice really drives me up the wall... I don't know why. I just hate it. And as a bot.. Huffer. He's so negative and never enthused about anything.. His voice also $h hits me..

    Your opinion.

    Oh Lets leave Wheelie out of this one, cause we all know he is widely hated by every one except Freefall666. A member form an international forum..

    Blurr wins hands down. I hate him in the G1 cartoon. Much prefer the Animated incarnation.

    It's "Cosmos" and his voice is supposed to be a Russian accent, which Michael McConnohie admits was a painfully difficult voice to do because he had to really careful not to let it slide off into a bad Mexican accent.

    Wild random thought: Cosmos' alt mode is an Adamski UFO (hence why Cosmos' Japanese name is "Adams"), and George Adamski was originally from Poland. Poland neighboured the U.S.S.R. during the Cold War (and during the time of G1)... so perhaps in an act of American ignorance they decided that a Russian accent sounded the same as a Polish one?? Probably not.

    Otherwise, I don't see what's wrong with Cosmos. He's actually fairly high-spirited considering how lonely he often feels as a result from the fact that his station requires him to be isolated for extensive periods of time. Not quite as lonely as WALL-E or Kim Jong-Il, but still pret-ty darn ronerylonely.

    Not really... he does get into doing things, but he won't admit or show it. Same with Gears actually (so I'm surprised you haven't lumped the two whingers together). But both are dedicated Autobots who do their job.

    But I don't see anything really wrong with either three of these Autobots. They all make reasonable contributions to the story/continuity.

    The annoying thing with He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named is that he never really contributed anything of value to Transformers continuity, other than guiding the Dinobots to find Hot Rod and Kup in TFTM... but that was pretty much it. If you could assassinate He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named before Season 3, it would not really alter continuity. If you removed Huffer, Gears or Cosmos from continuity, it would dramatically change the course of events... for example, the Dinobots may never have been recovered from the Savage Land!

    I'm gonna say the most annoying character in G1 aside from He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named is Daniel Witwicky!

    Sadly that is a lesson that was never learned by cartoon producers, even to this day

    Seaspray's voice always grinded on me but I love the toy. Pretty much felt the same for Cosmos. Huffer was a whiny little bitch as well.

    cosmos's voice always made me laugh, the accent was always so... different? haha.. but to be honest none of the G1 characters really annoyed me to any great deal, apart from the obvious, he-who-shall-not-be-named as said above.. and no, its not voldermort..
