Kaye originally auditioned for the role of the heroic Optimus Primal leader of the Maximals on Beast Wars: Transformers (1996) while Garry Chalk, who ultimately played Optimus, originally auditioned for the role of the evil Megatron leader of the Predacons. Chalk did play the original Decepticon Megatron in a season 2 episode of Beast Wars while Kaye later played Optimus Prime on Transformers Animated (2007).

David's biggest moment was when he was cast as Megatron in 1994 in the popular series 'Transformers'. As a new animation art form was taking off (bolstered by Mainframe Entertainment's C. G. I. advances), 'Beast Wars' was born ('Beasties' in Canada) and would run for three seasons of ". . . the most fun you could ever have!". Thus began an almost twenty-year relationship with the 'Transformers' franchise.

David Kaye's voiceover career began with 'The Great American Hero', General Hawk in the D. I. C. animated series, G. I. Joe in 1989. Working as an on-air talent for radio station C. K. L. G. (L. G. 73) quickly became less interesting as both on-camera and behind-the-microphone roles started taking up more time. Over the next decade and a half David's on camera roles burgeoned along with his vocal career. On camera opportunities came in the form of guest roles on numerous TV series and movies such as The X-Files, Battlestar Galactica and Happy Gilmore. During this time David was being cast in some of the first of hundreds of animated shows and video games. So many, in fact, this now became the main focus of his career and he's never looked back.
