Also well-known to the ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' universe as the voice of Shockwave, Sunstreaker, Brawn and Spike Witwicky in ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' and Megatron, Ratchet, Ironhide and Longarm Prime/Shockwave in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated''.

Also well-known to the ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' universe as the voice of Shockwave, Sunstreaker, Brawn and Spike Witwicky in ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' . Almost a quarter of a century later, he reprised the role of Shockwave and Spike, as well as assuming the roles of Megatron, Ratchet, and Ironhide in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated''. He was considered by Creator/MichaelBay to reprise his role as Shockwave for ''Film/TransformersDarkOfTheMoon'', but Burton ultimately declined, citing a busy schedule and Longarm Prime/Shockwave a general disinterest in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated''.
blockbusters. [[note]]Creator/DavidWarner was also considered for Shockwave, who was actually Burton's inspiration for the original incarnation of the character, but ultimately, the role would've been something of a waste for both Burton and Warner, since Shockwave is actually a RedHerring for the true BigBad of the film, despite being heavily toted as such during promotion.[[/note]]

Corey Burton is also known to ''Franchise/StarWars'' fans as the [[PoorMansSubstitute audio double]] for Christopher Lee as Count Dooku in ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsCloneWars'' and several ''Star Wars'' video games (likewise for ''Franchise/KingdomHearts [[VideoGameRemake Re]]:Chain of Memories'', doubling over for Lee as [=DiZ=] from ''Kingdom Hearts II'' and ''Birth By Sleep''). He appeared as Ziro the Hutt and General Lothsome in ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' and also appeared as Captain Mar Tuuk and Cad Bane and reprised his roles as Count Dooku, Ziro The Hutt, and General Lothsome in the movie's television adaptation. When Sir Christopher Lee was brought in to record for the ''Star Wars: The Clone Wars'' film, he was so impressed with Corey's impersonation of him that he wondered why he even needed to record for the film.
