Couldn't find it for a while, but I finally rediscovered the exact quote of Orson Welles talking about playing Unicron in the Transformers movie:
"You know what I did this morning? I played the voice of a toy. Some terrible robot toys from Japan that changed from one thing to another. The Japanese have funded a full-length animated cartoon about the doings of these toys, which is all bad outer-space stuff. I play a planet. I menace somebody called Something-or-other. Then I'm destroyed. My plan to destroy Whoever-it-is is thwarted and I tear myself apart on the screen."

I had one of these that I played a lot of old Zeppelin eight tracks on while re-reading the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
