Well, that's just not prime. Beast Wars was my favorite Transformers series I wish him all the luck in his recovery.

As a child of the 80s he voiced so many great characters. And I still enjoy his work today.


Same here.


Big agree with both points; his voice was instantly recognizable in any role he had. But "Big Bot" will always be my favorite.

Yup. Apparently they used an experimental chemotherapy treatment that will be used on more patients to hopefully help them through their treatment. It’s great to hear he’s in remission and apparently returning to acting.
