Celebrating mecha anime with this year's theme - MTAC Prime - proudly announces the addition of Neil Kaplan, voice of Optimus Prime in Transformers: Robots in Disguise to an already-exciting guest roster!

Mr. Kaplan will be appearing during all three days of the event (April 13-15), offering panels and signings and multiple appearances. In addition to his work as the immortal hero Optimus Prime in the most "anime" of the Transformers shows, Neil has voiced the very recognizable Hawkmon from Digimon, as well as Gluto of Power Rangers fame. Other voice credits include countless video games, including an impressive body of work in the Star Wars game genre.

He's been to a few UK cons. Nice fella. Has a lot of time for his fellow nerds

Haven't heard his name mentioned in connection with Heroes, though.

The Star Wars game that they are talking about is Star Wars KOTOR the 1st one which is bye the way one of the Best Star Wars games of all time. And one of the top 10 RPG Games ever made, the only thing I hated about the whole game was the AI and the suck job ending same promblem with KOTOR II. KOTOR III is rumored project for Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 but wont be out for a while cause the next game will be Star Wars The Force Unleashed. That would be cool if he was in Heroes he would make a good Prime Choice, if they are indeed making Prime younger. But I wonder who is going to be Bumbleebee and Iron Hide. Not to metion the other characters I hope that Soundwave will be in Transformers Heroes or Devestator.
