Your point about the Season 2 credits is correct (they list, in essence, the actors cast at the time the credits had to be written up for the season premiere, never being updated to include actors cast after that point), but her absence from it was not my original point - my point was that the original guessworkers tried to retroactively apply the third season credits to season 2 without basis. All online databases that list her as the roles do so as the result of guesswork from fans on in the 90s - guesswork that today, has in large part been proven incorrect. Cyberlink420 ( talk) 14:24, 30 June 2019 (EDT)Ībsolutely none of this evidence "points" to Gary as those voices. Either way, you haven't presented enough evidence to definitively place Gary as the voice of Chromia. While she does have range and may have been uncredited, other actresses also have solid range and (by your own admission) have been uncredited in the past. Cybertron Chronicle is also a fansite, and very likely based their list on ours, creating a sort of feedback loop of misinformation. And BTVA doesn't have her marked with a check, meaning that it is not a confirmed credit and is based on hearsay or the best guess of the site admins, and is thus capable of being wrong. IMDB and Wikipedia are user-submitted, and thus can (and often do) get things wrong. It is time to adjust the profile of Chromia, and of Ms. The evidence points to Linda Gary as Chromia. Within ] episode itself, Elita One (G1) herself, Marlene Aragon, is not listed in the Season Two end credit sequence. For example, Mona Marshall, who portrayed Luisa in Fire on the Mountain (episode) and Aron in Child's Play (episode), was omitted from both the Season One and Season Two end credit sequences. Gary would not be included in this list, as other female actors were also omitted from the Transformers credit sequent. Joe) and Arlene Banas (who was a mainstay as Carly throughout Season 2 and 3) - and none in Season One. There are in fact only two female voice actors listed in the Season Two era - Morgan Lofting (well-known to Sunbow as the Baroness in G.I. "When you're doing a character, especially a cartoon, your body has to move, your face has to move, you have to contort yourself into what that character is doing."įinally, her absence from a generic season-wide end credit is to be expected in an era when credit was not always given where do. "You have to have some empathy with the character you're playing to make them real," she said. "So if we need someone really versatile, she's the person we call." During one studio session, to get the feel of being a witch, Gary shriveled her 5-foot-9 frame into a wizened, sputtering, spitting, evil creature with a gravel voice. Quote: "Linda is one of the most versatile and talented ladies in the voice field in L.A.," said Erika Scheimer, who casts and directs for Filmation of Canoga Park, a major producer of cartoons. Gray was known for her versatility, as evidenced by this profile in the LA Times in 1987 ( ). Gary is also attributed the role in IMDB ( ), Behind the Voice Actor ( ), and wikipedia ). The in-depth Cybertron Chronicle ( ) lists her among the principal cast. Multiple sources have listed her in this role. ![]() I submit that, particularly in the absence of any solid evidence to the contrary, Linda Gary is Chromia. ![]() Gary was not the contributing actor, and the credit spot has remained vacant. Since then, no one has come forward with concrete proof that Ms. Gary did not "sound" like Chromia and the absence of her name from the Season Two end credit sequence. In 2015, Chris McFeely removed Linda Gary as the voice talent for Chromia (G1), based seemingly on a feeling that Ms. The thought of it being her was brought up to me on another site and inspired by someone else's suggestion on a Youtube comment, and it seems like a decent case. The voices sound pretty similar to me but that's just my two cents. Is there a chance the VA was Susan Silo? She voiced Sandra in Inhumanoids (which had a lot of cast/personnel in common with Transformers) and here's Chromia for comparison. I could certainly believe that some of them were voiced by the same person (Chromia and Talaria, perhaps), but I have to remove these for my own sanity. Linda Gary's got a very distinctive voice (if you've watched He-Man, you know that), and she doesn't sound like any of the women who voiced those characters. All the credits I have removed were guesswork on the part of Zobovor back in the days of his voice actor list, based on her being credited in the third season alone. I've been going back over the G1 cartoon lately, and I cannot buy into the idea that Linda Gary did any of the voices listed.
