'''Frank W. Welker''' ([[March 12]], 1946-) is an American voice <strike>actor</strike> god. Though it is but the tip of the iceberg, some of Welker's most notable roles include Fred (and later Scooby) from ''Scooby Doo'', Ray and Slimer from ''[[Susan Hoffman#Related characters|The Real Ghostbusters]]'', Santa's Little Helper from ''The Simpsons'', Nibbler from ''Futurama'', Dr. Claw from ''Inspector Gadget'' and that parrot that got eaten by the shark in ''Deep Blue Sea''. He has also done nearly all the animal sounds recorded for cartoons in North America in the last few decades. Though he has given voice to numerous Transformers, he is particularly remembered for his portrayal of [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]].<br />
<br />
Basically, if you haven't seen a cartoon with him in it then that's because you've never seen a cartoon in your entire life. Unless it was one of those public domain 1930s cartoons which sell for a buck at Family Dollar, of course.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
*[http://www.bwtf.com/bw/tvshow/episodes/seasontwo/agenda2/ According to Ben Yee], [[Bob Forward]] desperately wanted Frank Welker to reprise the role of Generation 1 Megatron for the [[Beast Wars]] episode "[[The Agenda (Part 2)]]" and even offered to go to Welker's home in California and tape-record his lines there. However, Welker declined the role supposedly because Forward was unable to offer him a sufficient amount of money and his schedule was too busy.<br />
<br />
*For an episode of [[Cartoon Network|Adult Swim's]] ''Robot Chicken'' series, "Werewolf vs. Unicorn", Frank Welker reprised the roles of both Soundwave and Megatron.<ref>[http://www.adultswim.com/video/?episodeID=8a25c3921449e2e901144bddc6af00c2]</ref> He reprised the role of Megatron again for the ''Family Guy'' episode "Oceans Three and a Half".<br />
<br />
*Throughout the '90s, Frank Welker was the official voice of [[Steven Spielberg]] in all his animated appearances in shows like ''Tiny Toon Adventures'', ''Animaniacs'' and ''Freakazoid'' but one: the ''Tiny Toon Adventures'' episode "Buster and Babs Go Hawaiian", in which Spielberg played himself in his first appearance on the show.<br />
<br />
*On a ''Futurama'' DVD commentary, Billy West referred to Welker as "a voice-acting god", an appellation that has stuck in various fan communities.<br />
<br />
*Welker also provided the voice of the [[Tonka GoBots|GoBot]] [[Scooter (GoBots)|Scooter]], Rest-Q, Zeemon and Blaster, and Rock Lords Pulver-Eyes, Sticks and the [[Narliphant]]s on the '''Challenge Of The GoBots''' animated series and movie.<br />
