Christopher Collins

I was at a, uh, an industry event and, uh, I was sitting in my, uh, uh, seat waiting for it to happen and I felt somebody poke me in the back.

And I turned and it was Chris Latta, and I said, "Hey man, what's going on? What's the deal?" And he goes, "Hey, you know, uh, Transformers is over." I w- I went, "What? What do you mean it's over?" "Yeah, we did the last one, uh, last week.

It's all over." "It is?"

Mm.

Yeah

... thing that would happen.

And that's how I found out, Chris, Chris Latta told me.

So I'm, I'm curious because, you know, obviously in, in the eyes of the fans and the audience, like, it's easier for us to group, you know, different actors that were in shows together.

But Peter Cullen is one of those that every Transformers fan knows, up there with Frank Welker, and I'm blanking on the guy who did Starscream and Cobra Commander's-

... voice.

He, yes.

And speaking of Lotta.

Starscream, as portrayed by Chris Latta.

Retreat.

Retreat.

[laughs]

[laughs]

Uh, there's also a Wally Burr and Chris Latta, uh, Laserbeak recording that is available.

If you just Google that, you'll, you'll find it very easily.

Can you do a good Scrap Iron Son Bo voice? It's very distinctive.

Was he one of Chris Latta's?

Dunno, but it was good voice, man.

How is...

So he was on both sides of the great Transformers-Gobots divide.

Christopher Collins was Cobra Commander and also Starscream in Transformers.

A very go-to guy was among Hasbro's villain actors.

And Corey Burton... was Tomox.

Mm-hmm.

The captain of the Pakleds is called Christopher Collins.

Mm-hmm.

He was the voice of Moe Szyslak and Mr. Burns in season one of The Simpsons.
