David Hingtgen Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Wait wait. They switched from Katy Perry to Demi Lovato? Are they just cycling through singers, paying no heed to consistency? ::edit:: Yeesh, almost all those voices are new. They recast the entire species.

Dynaman Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Since it has not released yet it doesn't matter who does the voices yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hingtgen Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Ack, didn't see the "reboot" note. (Though I have to ask---why?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derex3592 Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 The animation looks fantastic, I really like the look of it, however, not having the voice actors from the 80s just absolutely kills the whole thing for me. Which is a real shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
