I wish to know who did the voices behind these characters:

Air Strike
Barbella
Buckshot
Flare Wolf
Tidepool
Wild Storm

I have tried tweeting the voice directors (Mary Elizabeth McGlynn and Amanda Wyatt) for Wild Storm, but never got an answer. I also tweeted voice actors Neil Kaplan and Crispin Freeman. Freeman never answered me, but I found out the Kaplan never voiced a PLAYABLE character in the franchise, much to my dismay. I have tried getting voices for Skylander characters before, particularly Swarm, Gusto, and High Five. I've went on to find out that the voices behind Gusto and High Five were Jess Harnell and Tom Kenny, respectively. I looked upon an unknown website that included actors and their roles, and it claimed that Swarm was voiced by Danny Jacobs. I went to Twitter and asked the question to the VA himself. He actually said he DID record lines for him, but didn't know which game. It was Giants, as future games used voice archives. I have quite a knowledge in voice acting, and I want to know who voiced EVERY Skylander in the franchise. I have never thought there could be so many characters whose voice actors REMAIN unknown. I only want the AFOREMENTIONED SENSEI CHARACTERS ONLY, and I only want voices for the characters mentioned above. Feel free to put suggestions on who voiced these Senseis.

We don't really know. Someone has been going around in IMDB adding actors and causing some wiki issues because people are taking it as fact,but we really have no source on it.

Wild Storm sounds like Kevin Michael Richardson a bunch, it's a really similar tone to Gaul from Legend of Spyro.

The creators of Skylanders should really credit their voice actors..

I don't they don't manage their own ts sequence, so much information is probably outsourced and they don't really care about proper crediting if it's a time sink to organize. 'Sides, with the voice actor strike, they can't even credit most of them in Imaginators.

sadd.

I don't even understand why companies sometimes don't credit their voice actors. There's a reason behind that?

Usually it's the VA or their union's choice, like the strike currently going on, or notably Naoto's original actress in Persona 4 that was never revealed despite being a major character and a fan favorite.

Villain Sensei voice actors:
Golden Queen (CCH Pounder)

Dr. Krankcase (John Kassir, replacing Quinton Flynn)

Hood Sickle (JB Blanc)
Bad Juju (Kimberly Brooks)
Chompy Mage, Blaster Tron (Alex Ness)
Grave Clobber (Fred Tatasciore, replacing Kevin Michael Richardson)
Pain-Yatta (Xander Mobus)

Sources? We don't know any of those - and IMDB doesn't have sources either meaning someone could be doing very poor guesswork.

ESPECIALLY Mysticat. He isn't Yuri Lowhental and I ran into waaay too many characters voiced by him in games to know.

That's King Pen's voice actor? It sounds like Skip Stellrecht to me because King Pen sounds like Might Guy from english dub Naruto. Oh well, King Pen will be Guy Sensei in my headcanon, heh.

I thought King Pen was Billy West? He sounds exactly like Zap Brannigan

I don't think most of these are right to begin with - Pit Boss is also clearly John Kassir since it's the Ghoul voice plus the hissing. But I don't have a twitter to ask the VAs, so they'll stay mostly unconfirmed.

Ambush and Hood Sickle are voiced by the same person?

I don't see it.

On launch day Xander Mobus said he only did one of the imaginator voices. He didn't voice Pain-Yatta.

I got this info from the Skylander wiki, and Pit Boss sounds more like Nolan North than John Kassir. Also, I'm not sure if a WOMAN voiced Mysticat. He KIND OF sounds like Ben from AF/UA/OV

And here are my guesses at the unknown voice actors:

Air Strike (Charlie Schlatter or Trevor Devall; I've listened to more of Devall's voice roles, and I'm familiar with Schlatter)

Barbella (Cynthia McWilliams, I've heard her voice in one of the most BIZARRE-est things possible;
the Rough Riders cashier lady on Clarence)

Buckshot (Trevor Devall or John DiMaggio, Bucky sounds a lot like DiMaggio when shouting his catchphrase)

Flare Wolf (John Kassir, I know he doesn't voice Pit Boss, but here's a character he may voice)

Tidepool (Moira Quirk, since Tidepool has an OBVIOUS British Accent, and Moira's from the U.K.)

Wild Storm (Jamieson Price, Mortal Kombat Announcer, sounds kinda like Kevin Michael Richardson, etc.)

We just cleaned that up from the Skylander wiki, people were adding because of IMDB. I'm sure there's VAs out there that can pull a pretty good feminine dude voice,but Yuri Lowhental's voice isn't that deep("Cat's all, folks" and some of his other lines are really deep).

Pit Boss sounds EXACTLY like every other character John Kassir did in Skylanders, maybe excluding Ghost Roaster who's a walking reference.

If IMDb says yes, than it's yes. I swear a MAN voiced him. It couldn't have been one of the Miscellaneous alumni like Brad Abrell, Bob Glouberman, or Erol Otis, but it isn't very likely that a woman voiced the character.

IMDB is not a source, it's user edited and as fallible as any wiki. IMDB said Skylanders Academy Season 2 would come out on January. IMDB says yes, Eric Rogers and other producers say no.

Not Only IMDb, but the Skylanders wiki says yes as well

................What.

The Skylanders Wikia is also a place where users edit the articles, but we gather info from official sources that doesn't include imdb. And wikia users who believe IMDB as an "official source" without other official sources, like the game developers or from the voice actor themselves, usually have their contributions reverted to avoid misleading information and confusion.

I think you need to learn more about the difference between unofficial and official sources, JL.

We removed all of these voice actors from the wiki. These are TWO admins from the Skylanders Wiki telling you that's false and we don't know them for sure, and IMDB is unreliable for multiple reasons.

You guys are wiki admins?

I have ATTEMPTED to email the voice directors on Twitter. Neither Mary nor Amanda replied to me. Why can't the dev team just credit the roles as well as the actors.

Yup.

Sometimes it's NDA(non disclosure agreement), maybe the actor strike this year is involved since many voice actors went uncredited or were replaced(Spyro is the most obvious example, they couldn't even use his old lines), but I've seen plenty of people ask specific actors on twitter to get their sources on Skylanders characters. If you have one you really want to know, most of them are on twitter as well.

Matthew Mercer confirmed on his Twitter that he voiced Spyro in Imaginators.

Also, JL, you don't need to post two times in a row just to add a new sentence or two. You can use the edit button on your comments to avoid double posting. AND you don't need to repeat yourself like a parrot.

We don't know, but if the voice acting direction won't answer, you'll have better luck asking the actors themselves directly.

Yuri has yet to reply. The only reply from a VA I got was Neil Kaplan, who never voiced a PLAYABLE SKYLANDER character.

How about you admins guess Pain-Yatta and Mysticat's voices

I'm no good with voices that aren't obvious(Liam O' Brien, Laura Bailey, etc). Though Pain-Yatta reminds me of someone that's already in the games, can't put my finger on it.

But Wild Storm is for sure Jamieson Price. Also, Liam O'Brien isn't listed in the Imaginators IMDb

Liam O' Brien is just an example I said since he's done a lot of games. I think he did and NPC in one of the games but never a Skylander.

But he was not credited for Imaginators

It's Nolan North. Many will say it's John Kassir, but I've heard Nolan North a lot to know what he sounds like.

Proof?

Pit Boss and Spellslamzer sounds exactly like Ghost Roaster, who were both voiced by John Kassir.

Don't forget Ghoul Imaginator voice, if you need a recent role.

On second thought, you may be right.

Now I'm starting to think that Billy West or Keythe Farley voices Pain-Yatta.

Nothing has been happening...

What can we say... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I know it's not him who voices King Pen but some of his lines feel like they are being said by John Wesley Shipp.

I don't know who that is

John Wesley Shipp didn't do many voice roles.

Upon gameplay of Pain-Yatta, I say he's voiced by Cam Clarke.

CAN'T WE ALL JUST ACCEPT THAT JAMIESON PRICE VOICES WILD STORM?

JL, for pete's sake, USE THE EDIT BUTTON PLEASE, NOT POST MULTIPLE TIMES IN A ROW. A mod corrected several of your posts already.

What Aura said. On Cam Clarke, though, do you have footage of Cam Clarke voicing someone to compare?

If John Dimaggio voiced Pain-Yatta, just come back here to know i told you so.

Considering the fact I cannot find a character who would sound like they have a Spanish accent, I hear voice cracks that sound like Clarke's more zanier roles, then I wouldn't know. It's all that stupid SAG-AFTRA's fault. If it wasn't for all these VAs we've come to know and love going on this #perfornancematters bandwagon, then maybe we'd know all of the voices for Imaginators.

Perhaps we could agree that Jamieson Price voices Wild Storm, as well as already knowing he's Tri-Tip.

Want proof Jamieson IS him and [b]NOT[b] Kevin Michael Richardson? Try listening to Twin Drazeros from B-Daman Crossfire.

Or not, because we don't have enough voice samples of him.

I have poor knowledge on how to not double post and I do not know how or WHEN to stop

And now I see

There is an edit button on the bottom of each of your posts, it's not hard to see. And from the looks of your comment here, you don't care if you double post or not, even if you knew how to edit.

Nobody's replying to my edits.

I think Jamieson Price voices Wild Storm. I know he voices Tri-Tip and a few Imaginator voices, but I've gotten replies from people saying he is voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson, who is part of the OVERLY STUPID V/A video game strike. I've put an example of a B'Daman character voiced by Price who sounds a lot like Richardson. And since we have to wait until March 12th to hear more Wild Storm quotes, we won't find out soon or later.

I need opinions on if Edward Bosco voices Wild Storm

No one replies if no one can contribute. Can't help you there, mate, I'm not that good with VA as I used to think.
