That man is unbelievable. If you've been watching animated cartoons in the eighties (or are a fan of 80's cartoons and have acquired some lately) , I'm certain that you must have heard him. A gifted voice actor, he's voiced all sorts of creatures. Megatron, for one thing. I've been browsing his profile and am still astonished at the number of shows that he's had a part in and that ring a bell.

My salute and undying respect unto him!

He's also the larynx behind General Maxson in Fallout.
 
Most Fallout voice actors have quite an extensive Imdb record.
 
Besides Ron Perlman, Tony Shalub and that guy from Everyone Loves Raymond, the other actors seem to had some slim pickens. A lot of them seem to have stuck to cartoons and video games over the years. Even though it does put food on the table, I wouldn't be terribly proud of the roles they've had.

"Hey guys! I was the talking leaf in Land Before Time XXI: Fossil Fuels, Ahoy!, what did you do?"
 
I think that Crispin Freeman is another awesome voice actor. His voice is awesome. So intense and powerful. I think that anyone who has seen Hellsing will agree. Sorry for getting of topic.

Micheal Dorn has been in a couple roles after Fallout that were pretty good.
 
Well, Mr. McGyver has been sticking to "Stargate" series for some time. I could also attach Tress MacNeille and Charlie Adler to some other shows.

Crispin Freeman? The one who voiced Alucard in "Hellsing"? ( A show a friend of mine described as: "Evil, fucked up psycho vampires are the good guys here." ) Well, I'd have to check up on the guy, I only saw Japanese, subtitled "Hellsing", and just a few episodes (although I see he voices mostly anime , and that's a big no-no)

Still, in terms of voicing experience, Welker kicksass. :D

Erm. That's what you do if you're a voice actor.
