IDW Transformers MTMTE Voice Headcanons

How I think the Transformers More Than Meets The Eye characters sound like!
My headcanons not meant to be entirely definitive, but to serve as reference for the overall vibes the characters have. The clips used have been pulled from various sources like movies, tv shows, and video games. I know I have missed some characters, so I may or may not make a second part. I will also be making another video like this for IDW Robots in Disguise.

[@TheCryingChild_83]

I love how we all agree that the perfect VA for Ratchet is Jeffery Combs

[@shadowgalevt]

I cannot hear Ratchet with any other voice.

[@dragon_os5153]

He was written with Combs with mind, I think.

[@acidstorm154]

Tfp ratchets va would fit

[@laraprisma6381]

yup! he was simply the perfect pick for Ratchet in Prime!

[@GoosedotMP4]

A universal law

[@nightfury-fury802]

Love how the entire Fandom just agreed that Skids is Scottish

[@Caelifer]

Rodimus having the same VA as Nightwing AND Ultraman is wonderful

[@bradtobin839]

And Kazuda "Kaz" Xiono from Star Wars Resistance!🤩

[@Zarzar_Co]

I SCREAMED NIGHTWING LIKEEE

[@carallela9708]

You aren't just cooking. You are delivering a buffet here.

[@czcreation2459]

the universal scottish skids

[@jack_patroclus]

literally how have i *never* considered jason ritter for first aid?? he's perfect!! also love rodimus' va so much, and jeffery combs is such an iconic ratchet that he just *has* to be him for mtmte. your voice cast is so fun (and collecting gravity falls va's like infinity stones lmao)

[@therandomtransformersanima6236]

John mulaney swerve is PERFECTION

[@yseelasset3773]

Just imagine the discussion with Ultra magnus drunk of his ass on hedonia with those voices... Utter perfection.

[@Paleo659]

Ultra magnus is perfect, those voice lines. Even though they’re super out of context, they work too well for Cybertronians.

[@levitator45]

I like how everybody agrees that Skids WILL be Scottish

[@dotjpeg-bng]

Skids is scottish :) - an irish person

[@levitator45]

@dotjpeg-bng ohh got it. Will edit my comment 🙂

[@missladypotato]

HELLO????!!!! Ken Sato's VA as Rodimus is just PERFECT. It will be my hc voice too now, all the voices fit SO WELL. I also love Daman Mills (Tailgate), Yuri (Rewind) and Alex (Whirl) choices!

[@RobotScarlet]

Few seconds in and I already agree that THAT is Rodimus!!!!!!

[@belladubois2558]

YEAH FINALLY SOMEONE PUTS SWERVE AS JOHN MULANEY!!!!

[@CURLYYWURLYYY]

YURI LOWENTHAL AS REWIND?!?! He's gotta voice him if they ever made an mtmte show omg

[@johannajans9255]

Alex as whirl is inspired!

[@fuuya8888]

This is the Voice Headcanons video that I agree with the most! Every single one HITS

[@miraculousninja5255]

Wait guys, let him cook! 👀👀👀 (I didn’t know I needed Ultraman voicing Rodimus, but now that you’ve thought of it, I NEED IT!!!)

[@fossildiggerstudios4645]

Congratulations, 3:22 never have I had a more visceral reaction to hearing Almond Cookie's voice in anything other than CRK

[@amanita_soulz8792]

The way Drift just yapps is so cannon

[@jacktimson2401]

I can't decide on Whirl, but Alex is one of my top 2. 100% agree on Rewind and Skids

[@WeaponizedToyCar]

SOMEONE ELSE AGREEING ON BILL CIPHER WHIRL YESSS

[@sonsvab3442]

All of those are very interesting Interpretations but Yuri Lowenthal as Rewind, Alex Hirsch as Whirl and Christopher Wehkamp as Perceptor is simply perfection! Not to mention imagining Skids being voiced by Kevin McKidd just opened up a whole other universe of possibilities

[@FrisktheBunny]

1:37 that makes sense... TF prime ratchet is the definitive ratchet 1:38 randomly Dipper... 2:10 and spider pig... 4:01 I miss Ninjago... The good Ninjago... 6:29 and when I got the gravity falls references was one and done... 8:58 Earthspark??? That's cool! 10:05 YAAAASS!!! THE TIMEY WIMEY MAN!!!!!

[@TimeCircleBlue]

Cloud Strife Chromedome was not on my radar I almost spat my drink.

[@doomeddigs7292]

I would bot have imagined my girls Nautica with my girls Juvia's voice, but now i can't dissociate them

[@OdesseyAchilles-ih5qb]

Getting to hear Megatron call people a bunch of Nances is something I didn’t know I needed, thanks♥️

[@AbigailRodriguez-ob6jm]

It took me a moment to realize the head cannon voice for drift was giyu and other same voice

[@YeKoiKoi09]

YES SWERVE AS JOHN MULANEY IS THE BEST INTERPRETATION OF HIM😂😂

[@holtzz9684]

David Tennant as Rung....Yes. J.K. Simmons as Ultra Magnus...Yes!!!

[@dandelionn.]

Dude the Rodimus one was so awesome. I can just imagine him talking like that.

[@gavo7911]

We had the same ideas for Whirl and Brainstorm, I heard Robbie Daymond in P5 and KNEW he would be the perfect Brainstorm. My pick for Ultra Magnus was Andre Braugher (this was before his unfortunate passing), as I think Captain Raymond Holt is basically Ultra Magnus to the tee.

[@TheCryingChild_83]

These are literally PERFECT. (except I personally see Brainstorm having more of a british accent lol)

[@bizarrereef]

This is now canon to me. I havent even read lost light yet

[@Squ1nkk]

Edgeworths voice for perceptor is so perfect actually

[@danielacalle9482]

Ratchet's voice reminds me of his voice in transformers prime

[@SybSlays404]

I'm gonna hold your hand gently when i say this.... but that *is* Ratchet from TFP

[@neon-1-of-1]

that is indeed TFP Ratchet´s voice actor

[@thatonesnazzyartist7835]

Came here running for Rung and I have to say. An interesting choice and honestly i'm here for it. Personally i've always heard him as Naven Nuknuk from Epithet Erased but

[@planeclaw]

i always read whirl in neil cicierega's voice BUT I SEE THE VISION one eyed chaos triangle 🤝 one eyed attack helicopter

[@rebelxoswald]

These are perfect, oh my god. Christopher as Rodimus has me insane, I was in love with him as Ultraman/Ken, him as Rodimus would be AMAZING. And KEVIN AS SKIDS YESSS! I can hear Alex's Bill as Whirl for sure, yup yup. But using Rory (earthspark Megs my love) for Megatron, thank you.

[@PeaceThroughPassion]

@Metamagnus is my headcanon Whirl. Even before I saw his dubs, that was exactly how I imagined him speaking while reading the comics. Everyone else though is almost spot on. Especially Swerve. Glad to see someone else who agrees with it.

[@lunulucid]

This is doing so much better than I thought it would be. Thank you all for the support! If you would like to comment any voice suggestions for the Robots In Disguise characters, feel free to do so ❤

[@Berry_sweet-v32]

this is very underrated! all of the voices felt so accurate, even when they had cannon voice acters in different types of media! this was awesome sauce!

[@MaddyHiggs-rg5qz]

Jason Ritter as a transformer is fascinating to me. It works but just so unexpected

[@MaddyHiggs-rg5qz]

BILL CIPHER WHIRL IS GENIUS

[@ashbluesky7138]

Dear god these are actually perfect like no notes. The vision is so clear

[@TANGL3_BURR]

The fact you headcanon Rewind's voice as a character from one of my most favorite shows makes me wanna read these comics.

[@coreymcgivney5897]

Love this! Can’t Wait for the RID/OP one, as that’s my favourite of the IDW series. Rodimus in particular was pretty much just “yeah, that’s actually them.”

[@niconions]

these might be my favorite mtmte voice hcs out of all the ones I've seen !! they all felt so accurate I love it

[@ancientnight]

I always kinda saw Jesse McCartney being the voice for Rodimus. Funny enough both he and Christopher voiced Nightwing. Jesse was Young Justice and Chris was Gotham Knights. Chris is also good and never thought about it.

[@bigoreoenergy3123]

Every choice of casts fits really nicely on each character. Some even surprised me and I love every single one.

[@summergolding1539]

Owen Wilson as Rodimus would so funny

[@StarBoyBlue]

THESE ARE ALL SO GOOD

[@eve_le6059]

so fucking perfect my god! chromedome + tailgate are just as I imagined!

[@outlier9099]

When i finally catch up and finally get to MTMTE these very will be my head voices

[@kailecsy_7986]

THIS IS SO GOOD OMG!!! I totally agree with these and I love that most of these are exactly how I imagined their voices to sound, especially Rodimus, Cyclonus and Tailgate! I got so excited when they came up lol

[@El_Circuit]

* chef kiss *

[@missilelaunched]

i agree with basically everything but i think brainstorm should have a british accent. but his voice is good & basically everyone is spot on for me

[@lunulucid]

I fully agree with this! i think robbie daymonds softness is also fitting for brainstorm’s deception during the time travel arc but i was struggling to find any clips of him speaking poshly lol

[@Depth217]

Some of my cast: Andy Samberg - Rodimus Michael Ironside - Ultra Magnus Eric Bauza - Drift Clancy Brown - Cyclonus Josh Gad - Tailgate Matt Mercer - Rewind Keith Ferguson - Chromedome Jason Marsden - Skids Alex Hirsch - Whirl Fred Tatasciore - Ratchet (using his High Moon voice) Steve Blum - Brainstorm John Mulaney - Swerve Corey Burton - Megatron Missy Peregym - Nautica Kevin Michael Richardson - Fort Max Tim Curry - Tarn Jeffrey Combs - Pharma Tony Jay (RIP) - Tyrest Sam Witwer - Star Saber Jeffrey Dean Morgan - Overlord Tesaurus - Michael Dobson Helex - Tom Kenny Vos - Charlie Adler Kaon - Daniel Ross Nickel - Tara Strong (Joke is that besides Tarn the DJD are voiced by Starscream actors)

[@kevinpeoples8702]

Aw man, I was so hoping for Tarn. Maybe Benedict Cumberbatch?

[@imreallybusylol]

WE GOT DIPPER VOICING FIRST AID [or whoever that is, im forgetful], THE SPIDERPIG VOICING SWERVE, BILL CIPHER VOICING WHIRL?! WOOO

[@DANIELH013]

6:36 oh this is comedy GOLD

[@hoggamer833]

I can see why whirl and alex are a good match. 1: Whirl is more funny and a bit of a loose cannon 2: bill crazy funny and dope 3: They both have one eye.

[@Unique0User]

How are these so perfect

[@theglitch0870]

I feel like Nolan North works too for Whirl, but Alex Hirsch is also an amaxing choice!

[@saagabragi6938]

6:29 This is great actually

[@nyaesw]

It would be perfect if there was an MTMTE/Lost Light animated series with these VA's.

[@THESAMMANCAN]

Yoooo animated idw would be sick tho, it would be animated like a pretty and gory anime with the plot logic of western script writing

[@laraprisma6381]

OMG!! WHIRL BEING ALEX HIRSH IS PERFECT!!!

[@HarperKumfer]

I actually always thought that brainstorm would sound like john Mulaney but giving the voice to swerve is something I never really thought about! I guess I’m just to used to people saying he sounds like John Ratzenberger it’s a nice change! 👍

[@isabelvalentine3441]

This is probably the best list I’ve seen so far! There wasn’t a single one where I went NUH UH 😂

[@Diabeanie]

Yoooooo these are great! I'll have in mind several of them for when I get to those comics, haha, thank you!

[@PhantasmicCackla]

Whirll Cipher

[@thunder5026]

Velocity having Skylors voice really works. Also NINJAGO MENTIONED

[@pedroalbornozramirez8895]

Ok Alex Hirsch as Whirl it's awesome

[@sogsuex]

oh wooow I would defiantly want to animate these characters with those voices

[@EvetheDoomed]

Alex Hirsch is perfect for Whirl but I lean more in my interpretation to Grunkle Stan xD oh Travis as Overlord would be so good!

[@doomlight4672]

Omg what these actually fit so well :00

[@Dawnelldo2]

You cooked a five course meal.

[@PocketBroccoli]

THESE ARE PERFECT

[@RubyLoxolyte]

I cant tell which cookie it is but i heard the crk music in the back of tailgates and giggled it works so well tho (is that milk cookies va? Thats my best guess)

[@niuniunuko]

If I'd be Ratchet I too would fall in love with Drift if he had a voice like that, haha!

[@korsar_vtoroi]

HELL YEAH all of them match sm 🙏🙏🙏

[@trollkienofficial1225]

This is so on point holy shit

[@monkekit_the_o.g]

Tailgate's voice so on point 😮.

[@royalwalnutbroth5664]

don't know who you chose, but she's a great choice for nautica! just like i wanted, an upbeat, blabbering geek but full of brilliance!!!

[@shovel3556]

based department is calling

[@moonspirit8390]

I love Rory McCann's Megs so I agree 100% to bring him here.

[@deadaf6098]

I like most of these!!!

[@rektbones5188]

Ultra Magnus being voiced by JK Simmons or Bejamin Byron Davis would be very great and fitting

[@sinsprout]

YHESAGGHHHH EARTHSPARK MEGS

[@adrianhazrd]

THIS IS SO GOOD OMG

[@metamayhem6503]

Some of them.. They're from Cookie Run Kingdom, and Gravity Falls.

[@K4rim_Benz3m4]

2:52 IT'S OMNIMAN

[@simpcentralstation4348]

Rung just LOOKS like he would be voiced by David Tennant

[@pacer_drawofficial6491]

all of these r 100% accurate but me personally, Perceptor will always be the fred macintalk like in tfa :>

[@terminator_15genesis23]

Not sure Brainstorms headcanon VA would really work for him, sure, it could work when he’s being serious but for his general behavior? The examples of Robbie Daymond isn’t very expressive in his role as Issei in Fate/Stay Night.

[@danielbrant6740]

I prefer Corey Burton as Ratchet (who incidentally voiced Transformers Animated Ratchet).

[@Unique0User]

FIRST AID AS DIPPER?!

[@markwhiteraven]

Nice picks.

[@MaxwellGill-e1y]

My personal head cannon is that Swindle sounds like Steve Blum

[@mlp8997]

LOVE IT!

[@MariaMendonca-io7qd]

U given us our food!!
