Don't pick your all-time favorite character immediately. Just think whose VOICE you like the best and choose that one.

So, who do you think has the best voice of them all and why?

My choice is Tarantulas. It's because you can very easily tell he's a crazy weirdo by just listening to him talk. Then, when he starts to laugh, you go "I knew it! ....OMG, I luv those widdle mad scientists...". And I do really like him. He's not a bad character, in fact, I think he, Quickstrike, Rampage and Ravage are my favorite Preds/Deceps in the whole show. Tarry and Rampy the most.

The weirdest thing is that I'm arachnophobic and I still think his beast mode looks cute. :roll:

I gotta say that I adore Ravage's voice and accent as well. He's a true Russian double agent (only phrases like 'Da!', 'Njet!' and 'Da svidanya!' are missing). 8)

And, if talking about Beast Machines characters, my favorite voice belongs to no one else than Jetstorm.

There's just that adorably arrogant and flighty nature that one can clearly hear in his voice. He's funny sometimes (sounds funny, I mean), he's not that much of a dimwit (well, not like Tankor, that is)... I actually preferred him to Silverbolt. Don't kill me.

this show has one of the best range of diff voices that iv known (most of which are scott mcniel's!) but my two fav voices are rattrap and dinobot...rattrap coz hes got the high pitched brooklyn (sp? sorry anyone who lives there) accent which you dont find many of now adays at least not good ones, and dinobot because i think the voice suits his beast mode which is so cool. everytime i watch jurrasic park i think of them talking like him. and the snarl is awesome!
but my fav pred is def waspinator. (its amazing how my fav voices come under the same category, eh?) it takes a while to understand wht hes saying at first, but his hilarious voice matches his hilarious character. i also agree with safeguard, tarrys voice is definately the einstein-gone-bad-while-high-on-helium ring to it....and who can rest\ist joining in the mad laughter? YAAAAAHEEHEEHAAAAAAHH!!!!

SafeGuard, I agree with you on Tarantulas's voice. It's quite unique and perfect for his mad scientist appeal. I also like Rattrap's voice. However, my vote went to Megs and Primal. Probably not surprising to most. :wink:

Megatron's I love because it's so dark and deeper than David's normal voice. I thought it was perfect for this generation Megatron, the leader of the Predacons. It was significantly different from Frank's G1 Megatron voice which made the Beast Wars Megatron's his own. I just love it.

My vote also goes to Primal because I simply love Garry's voice. It's very commanding yet gentle, if I may. Again, much different from Peter's Prime back in the day for a commanding officer. I also felt that Primal's voice gave him more character than I can remember with G1 Prime.

I also agree that Jetstorm had a great voice in Beast Machines. :D

One of my favorite lines is "Amazing how they can lie with such straight faces!" 8) Of course, can't forget "This is Captain Jetstorm speaking. Please feel free to move about the tarmac and flee for your miserable little life!"

"It's gonna be a bumpy night!" was also cool. ...Oy, of course, then there's "Aerodrones... initiate... evacuation.. sequence."

Oh, I also adored Thrust's voice. He sounded so much better than Inferno. Jim Byrnes really did make those two sound very different. I actually think that maybe Waspinator was like Thrust before choosing his beast mode and adopting the weird talking style. I've always thought Waspinator's apparent goofiness is the result of him getting his head banged in the crash. (And btw, although I don't like Megatron, he had one fun line in BM... that's "I live.... I live! ....What kind of puny body is this?"

I'll have to go with Megatron here. His voice has an incredibly rich caliber to it, especially with how deep it is, and is PERFECT for the megalomaniac role. Gotta love villains of high standing.

Airrazor and Blackarachnia. Dinobot's voice is cool, but the girls have voices to seductive to pass out. So I was tempted to vote for Dinobot, but I voted for them instead.
