Alan Oppenheimer (born April 23, 1930) is a veteran American voice actor, and one of several Transformers voice actors who have also appeared on the various Star Trek television series.

Notes
- He is the third cousin of scientist, Robert Oppenheimer.
- Oppenheimer's voice he used for Seaspray was virtually the same he used for Mer-Man on the original He-Man and the Masters of the Universe cartoon. Dan Gilvezan revealed in his autobiography Bumblebee and Me, Oppenheimer would achieve the Seaspray/Mer-Man voice by puffing out his lips and bouncing them up and down with his fingers while speaking. Gilvezan compared it to when an old Looney Tunes character would go insane and start boinging their lips. In short, it constantly cracked up everyone in the recording studio.
