No, there was some Bay quote awhile ago where he rattled off the heights of a few TFs. Megs was somewhere between 32 and 35 feet high and Prime was 28 feet.


Well, thats not much difference. If he needed to have an alt mode, he could easily turn into a large fighter jet, like an f-14 or an SR-71, those things are huge.

Probably an tank with pink flames and one bloody human without head sign on his chest. That would look badass :-?

Its obvious that his alt mode will be that of a pile of scrap in a junkyard.

I think a stealth bomber like in the game would be best for him. He is used to being a jet and I could see the stealth bomber mode being possible without much modification to his body.

I agree with him being a Stealth bomber. He originally was going to be that, and i wish he was. In TF2 he should have an alt form since he probably thinks now that having it is helpful, even though he thinks he's almighty and everything.

QFT

really he should be a tank or rail gun artillery...I don't see many awesome sequences as a stealth bomber....

"hey some bombs!"
"where'd they come from?"
"...its megatron!"

any air battle sequences would also not be too exciting.....

sorry maybe I am just grumpy right now.

Just because he is a stealth bomber doesnt mean that his flight abilities will be as limited as a real stealth bomber.

That was never true nor about Megatron. It was a incorrect statement by Shia of real info about Starscream being a raptor.

The only way to end the Decepticon threat in the first movie is the destruction, or belief of destruction of Megatron.

Megatron is bigger and stronger than Prime, so a one on one battle (which will happen) probably see's Meg's on top. I don't know why, but TF writers just love it when Prime gets his ass kicked.

So either Megatron dies, or the Allspark gets shot back into deep space AGAIN.

Riddle me this Batman: Why does Megatron have an interstellar jet mode anyway? The rest of the TF's have a cometary mode used for space travel.

megatron will die but they will make it so he comes back in the second, maybe as galvatron or something.

Meg dies for sure and the allspark is destroyed i think to answer that^^.

Just speculating. But I think the cometary mode is only intended for the short journey within the solar system and the entry into the atmosphere.

In the prequel novel the autobots and decepticons still use vessels for interstellar travel because the deadly conditions inside of a wormhole.

Maybe megatron's alt mode is an interstellar jet so that he can travel solo through the universe without relying on the nemesis, or some other transport.

While I like your hypothesis on the reasoning (I did read Ghosts of Yesterday) it doesn't explain why Prime does not have the same capabilities. Afterall, Megs and Prime are brothers in this storyline, ruling as equals, part of the Dynasty of the Primes, before Megs went berserk for the Allspark.

One of those parts that get left out and u just have to assume I guess.

I hadn't thought of that. Even though megs and prime are brothers and they ruled as equals, I'm expecting megatron to be more powerful. He was after all the LORD HIGH PROTECTOR.

Umm, yeah. Kind of.

Only theres only one Allspark, as opposed to the many rings, then ultimate ring designed to overtake the lesser rings. And Meg's cant be Sauron because he did not forge the ring, er, Allspark in the fires of Mordore, or in the...whatever you know what I mean.

Perhaps Megatron's inter-stellar jet mode is the product of self-inflicted upgrades. Megatron has done the same thing in other continuities.
