In the '96 Incredible Hulk animated series he was the voice of the Grey Hulk, and also in the two Hulk videogames back in the 00s; really nailed the cadence, a performance that fit perfectly - though I probably first heard him watching the Ocean dub of the first Ranma tv series, voicing the hapless Ryoga Hibiki. One of those VAs where you looked up their resume and realize, boy they had roles in a lot of work you'd seen, but had forgotten about or didn't notice.

I always struggled to remember he was Suikotsu, Hidden violent Band-of-Seven guy, in Inuyasha too. He wasn’t why I started Ranma 1/2 in late 2010(that was Ukyo), but I liked his weightless tough guy voice he did for the Guy.

This one kinda hurts can't lie. A Christmas Story is such an American Classic and I really don't think many other Christmas flicks come close so it hurts seeing the cast members pass on. Reminds me of how fucking shitty time is.
RIP Miss Shields
