Mr. Mignogna appeared on Star Search in 1993, singing a song called "Worth Waiting For".[1]

Vic tried out for Bleach, and received the part of Ikkaku Madarame.[2][3] Vic has also performed an English version of Byakuya: True Light (白夜～true light～, White Night ~true light~) from D.N.Angel, English versions of We Are!, Hikari e (光へ, lit.

The American Anime Awards presented Vic an award for Best Actor in a lead role for his work in Fullmetal Alchemist. He often gains much attention due to his role in Fullmetal Alchemist, and attends conventions regularly.[5]

He writes, composes, produces and records his own music and has created 6 CD compilations of work. He coordinated a duet with fellow voice actor, Johnny Yong Bosch.[citation needed]

Fans of Vic's many roles in different series created a fan club for Vic. These fans are called Risembool Rangers and the fan club is open to anyone who wants to join. The name came from Edward Elric's hometown of Risembool from the anime Fullmetal Alchemist.

Vic has been involved with the fan series Star Trek: Phase II. He co-directed the episode "Enemy: Starfleet" and played the Andorian Captain, and he directed "KITUMBA" and played Malkthon the Klingon.[6]
