It's so sad to see our fave characters from the golden age of transformers passing away. May he rest in peace. I hope they do him a service and give Inferno a good part in future cartoons, and that they find a decent voice actor for the character.

He will be missed.
Could this news story's avatar be changed to a picture of Inferno instead of Prime, please?

G1 Inferno was one of my top favorites as a little kid. I'm not just saying that. I still have the toy on my shelf.

Guide your spirit safe & sheltered, Mr. Edminston. Know that you've made so many, in so many places, very, very happy. Amazing how just a voice can do that.

Bless you.

Hahaha, you are correcto sir. Saying what I wrote in my head doesn't sound right anymore. Guess I got all caught up in the moment.

R.I.P Walker, I didnt even know he passed away?! But I expect he was in his 80's with such a career like that.

You'll be missed

A funeral pyre would be very appropriate in this case.

RIP Mr. Edminston.

Another one of the best Voice actors of our time is gone, pretty soon they'll be no decent voice actors left, and we'll be left with the no-talent hacks that voice the lameass Transformers cartoons of the twenty first Century.

I don't remember Inferno in the G1 cartoons. Were there many episodes of him? I think my memory is starting to go.

Inferno was in alot of season two episodes. He was usually paired with Red Alert or the protectobots putting out fires.
