** ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' - He did a ''[[{{Understatement}} lot]]'' of voices on that show, including most of the first year Decepticons. In fact, the only first-year Decepticons he didn't voice were Starscream, Laserbeak, Reflector (Chris Latta for all three), Shockwave (Creator/CoreyBurton), and Thundercracker (Creator/JohnStephenson). He also voiced Autobots Mirage, Trailbreaker, Sludge, Wheelie, Chromedome and Protectobot Blades. Most remember Welker as the voice of Megatron and Soundwave. He also took over the role of Galvatron after Creator/LeonardNimoy voiced him in [[WesternAnimation/TransformersTheMovie the movie]].

* ''Anime/MyNeighborTotoro'' - Totoro, Catbus

* ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' - Usually reprises the role of any character listed here. Also voices ComicStrip/ThePhantom, [[WesternAnimation/ChallengeOfTheGoBots Cy-Kill]], [[Series/GameOfThrones Khal Drogo, Robert Baratheon]] and [[WesternAnimation/ToyStory Mr. Potato Head]].

Due to high demand for his animal voice work, Welker more often plays a side character than TheHero unless it's Garfield, Fangface, Scooby Doo or Fred Jones. His most famous high-profile work has been ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' as Freddy (and Scooby since Creator/DonMessick's death), ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' as Megatron and Soundwave, and more recently the voice (both speaking and non-speaking) of Nibbler in ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''.

As it should be, Welker's reputation is astounding and alongside Creator/MelBlanc, he is likely the most famous voice actor in the world. He is revered as a god by many in the industry. Welker's ability goes beyond creating human voices and he is often cast as animals and used for animal vocals, where he has an uncanny talent at imitation. If the movie or show has any sort of budget and it has a regular animal character, he probably does the voices for it. His actual speaking voice sounds like a slightly lower-pitched Fred from ''Scooby-Doo''; he's joked in the past "I always say that Freddie is me after one too many cups of coffee."

Welker ranks third (only behind Creator/SamuelLJackson and Creator/HarrisonFord) in the "All Time Top 100 Stars at the Box Office," not as a box office draw, but in terms of the total revenue generated by the films in which he has participated, for the sheer number of voices he has done -- over 1,200 -- ranging from his work on ''Franchise/ScoobyDoo'' to the present day. (In fact, besides TheMovie and the 1988-91 series ''WesternAnimation/APupNamedScoobyDoo'' where Carl Stevens did the voice, he has been the only voice of Freddy since the beginning.) Go look him up on [[http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0919798 IMDB]]. Depending on your monitor resolution and DPI settings, his résumé is anywhere from 50 to 60 pages long. It'd be easier to list the works where he ''hasn't'' performed...
