    Default Hollywood's Biggest Star = Frank Welker

    Came as a bit of a shock to me. But he is an amazing voice actor, and you can notice his voice in whatever he does (including when I heard his voice in Bill & Ted)

    I love this story, reminds me a bit of session players (of music), the hardest working and most recorded are often not your typical rock or pop (or in franks case movie) stars.

    Did he? He also did Station, you can tell from the combined voice he sounds like Soundwave without the digitisation

    All Hail Mighty Welker!

    Seriously though, congratulations to the bloke as he is an extremely hard worker and has been like that for the better part of 30+ years.
    You watch though, the day he attends BOTCON will be the day the world record for the most simultaneous humans fainting is recorded!

    Fantastic reward and recognition for someone who has basically spent his life going from job to job, doing his work, and taking quiet comfort in that.
    For over 30 years now Mr Welker has been going from show to show, doing what is necessary to bring to life the many many characters of our childhoods.
    Congratsan and thanks many times over.
