[@chriscarpenter3370]

why did he sound like starscream 😂

[@gutz1981]

What is amazing to me is that Frank's Megatron has slightly changed over the years, those some of his other more deeper voices like Soundwave and his classic Dr Claw (Same voice style but with a vocoder added to Soundwave) is still the same. Wonder if he notices the change or he might not be doing it as he remembers it being.

[@paulheap1982]

Well, it's to do with as you get older your voice deepens.

[@acoote1701]

Also if you watch The Last Knight, Megatron's CGI Face Sculpt and Frank Welker's face are exactly the same, I.e. they based Megatron's face off his own. Watching this clip after watching TLK recently (again) I can see it now better, especially when Welker speaks as Megatron

[@puffpuffpassmako]

I'm pretty sure he deepens his Megatron voice now so it fits his more "modern" appearance. I actually prefer his new version as it actually sounds scary.

[@LarryMoonlink3892]

@Paladin JN01 I am pretty sure that 1 day, Frank Welker and Hugo Weaving will get into a fight over who is the best Megatron and the fight being a serious battle moment. Yeah... imagine 2007 Megatron fighting 2017 Megatron...

[@artyzino1986]

WHY DID THEY END TFP?! WHY?!

[@LarryMoonlink3892]

Is it weird enough for a live action Transformers character to have a child with a G1 Transformers character? I mean here's an example of a live action transformers character and a G1 transformers character having a child or more: Quintessa and Alpha Trion had 5 children, 3 sons and 2 daughters. Optimus Sun Aria Prime looks like TFP Optimus Prime but with Lavender Hair and tail(his tail is the same material as his hair so don't call him a pony with hands now cause he will go Decepticonic on you and possibly end your life.) And human features and behaviors and purple feathery wings which would confuse people into thinking that TFP Optimus Prime had took Twilight Sparkle's wings and glued them to his back.. but Orion Pax's wings are like feathery as a real life bird's feathery wings. Orion Pax is the nickname of Optimus Sun Aria Prime. But also Orion Pax has magical powers but the magical effect when he uses his magical powers appears purple. Optimus Sun Aria Prime is the 3rd son of Alpha Trion and Quintessa..

To be fair his OG Megatron voice was murder on his voice, while his new Megatron voice (from TF Prime onward) is easier on him.
