Today's episode of "recognize the voice talent" features the old kids TV show Voltron and also Transformers.
My kids were scoping out the new Just for Kids view on Netflix and decided they wanted to watch Voltron. I apparently missed this cheesy gem back in 1984 but my husband remembered it fondly. As we were listening to it vaguely in the background Jin said - "hey, isn't the voice of the narrator the same guy who does Optimus Prime?"
After a quick bit of Google-Fu I proved this to be true: Peter Cullen is not only the voice of Optimus Prime (all the way from the old TV shows to he current Michael Bay movies) but he also did the voice of the narrator on Voltron. He also does the voice of Eeyore in Winnie the Pooh! Awesome catch hubster - your prize is a set of volvo v90 custom floor mats. Thanks for playing Recognize the Voice Talent. Come back next week when we feature the annoying laugh of "Mrs. The Conductor" from Dinosaur Train.
