::: Unless we have a pic of Berger 20 years ago it's hard to say. It's entirely possible he could have had the same distinctive hairline, forehead, eyebrows, cheeks and such then too, who knows. I'm not saying it was "definately" intentional, and I really don't have any reason to "want to see it," Grimlock's pretender shell was nowhere on my mind when I first saw a pic of Berger at Botcon, yet the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw it was "Hey, they're right, he looks like the shell." Not a big deal, I just think it's a rather cute coincidence if nothing else.--[[User:ZacWilliam|ZacWilliam]] 00:23, 28 March 2007 (UTC) |

Grimlock's pretender shell doesn't look anything like Gregg Berger, other than being a white guy with dark hair! And considering the other shells don't look like THEIR voice actors, that makes this seem even more unlikely. This has got to go. --ItsWalky 15:15, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
- I've never seen Mr Berger myself, but I remember a bunch of folks remarking how much his program photo looked like Grimy's shell at Botcon a few years back. Myself I definately think there's a resemblence. Not just "white guy with dark hair" but white guy with dark hair, the same distinctive receeding hairline, very similar eyebrow shape, apple cheeks, lines under the eyes, and dimpled chin. I admit the other shells don't look like anyone special and it could definately be a total coincidence, but I do see the likeness. --ZacWilliam 21:30, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
