==Notes==<br />
* Burton based Shockwave's voice on that of actor [[wikipedia:David Warner (actor)|David Warner]]—specifically, Warner's turn as the cold, mechanical Sark from Disney's ''Tron'', a character that Burton himself would actually later voice in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' video games.<br />
*Corey Burton stated in an interview that [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] was by far his favorite character to perform in the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original show]]. He does however think ''Animated'' Shockwave could take Generation 1 Shockwave in a fight.<br />
*You should thank him, as it was thanks to his wish to do more of Shockwave's voice that [[Transformers Animated]] even got one in the first place.<br />
*Although [[Steve Blum]] voiced [[Shockwave (Prime)|Shockwave]] in the "[[Transformers: War for Cybertron]]" game, Burton performed the character for a Gamestop commercial. In a [http://www.coreyburton.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=853&sid=3992b18086e21d8f6face60940505757 forum post about the recording session], Burton lamented that the performance was so rushed, and the "gag" nature so out of character, that he felt it hardly even sounded like him.<br />
