Long time TF fans may not immediately recognize the name Corey Burton, but you should!  He is the voice actor responsible for the most infamous line of dialog in the history of  Transformers.  (See headline above)  Corey Burton played the adult Spike in the 1986 Transformers animated movie among many other roles in G1 Transformers animation.

We have confirmed with various independent sources (not the least of which, the Frank Welker homepage) that Corey Burton will be playing the voice of Megatron in the next Transformers television series, Transformers: Animated.  He will sit opposite of David (Beast Wars/Cybertron... Megatron) Kaye who will voice Optimus Prime and Tom (Sponge Bob Square Pants) Kenny who will voice the new Starscream.  You can hear Corey's animation demo track by following the link.  Awesome stuff!

In G1 television animation series he also played the young boy Spike Witwicky, Alpha Trion, Vector Sigma,  Sunstreaker, Shockwave and Brawn!!  This guy's resume in animation is a mile long and a great sign that the forces behind "TF:Animated' have put serious talent in place.
