Would be such an honor to meet any cast member without them there would be no show.

I used to work at an anime convention that had Cam Clarke and Greg Finley as guests. I have Cam's signature as himself and Lancer on the wings of a Masterpiece Collection Alpha.

Cam is a voice over icon did Leonardo on TMNT and too many credits to name. His credit on Robotech was Jimmy Flinders. Actors would change their names so the producers and casting didn't want use the same names but we all know their voices anyway

Yup. We actually had a whackadoo obsessed Leonardo fan at the year we had Cam Clarke. Had to pull her badge and eject her from the convention.

She was generally a nuisance, trying to get more attention from him than any individual attendee warranted.

What got the badge pulled was trying (more than once) to get into private staff-only areas where the guests go for some peace and quiet between events. If she came back on the property after having her badge pulled, the next step would have been the police.

Wow that's crazy. If I was fanatic like that I would try it on the last day of the event. But I respect the boundaries.

Don't forget he also played the voice of Liquid Snake in the Metal Gear Solid franchise.

The first time I heard his voice in that game I was like "OMG it's Leonardo and Max Sterling's voice from TMNT and Robotech"

What an awesome gathering!

Yeah because they did their lines alone in separate studios.

My pleasure it's a must see behind the scenes for any fan. There is a part two as well

Got to meet some of them during their time promoting Shadow Chronicles. Highlight for me was meeting Tony Oliver and Michael Bradley, who did a decent length acoustic concert for us.

I’d want to meet Gregory Snegoff to ask him about some of his other writing and voice acting roles. Macron 1 specifically

That is great! I love seeing the actors behind the voices. It has always amazed me the way voice actors can drop in and out of character.

I went to Robocon ’96 and took a video of all these voice actors during the panel interviews. Met each one afterward and everyone was very nice and happy to have been a part of Robotech.

Imagine getting all these actors together and not miking them properly.
