Yes, it was intentional. It's from the same people who put a steering wheel and seats in MP-09 Rodimus' crotch just because that's how Floro Dery original thought Hot Rod should transform and tried to made MP-05 Megatron have an opening chest.

Floro Dery designed that at the crotch area? The "Star of Cybertron" planned inclusion in Megatron's chest, that I can confirm in one of my TF mooks.

TFWiki wrote:Both Hot Rod and Rodimus Prime's character models suggest that the windshield and roof of their respective vehicles form the pelvic area, including little side windows on their hips. The animation studio AKOM even colored his crotch like his windshield. Unsurprisingly, this has never been duplicated on any toy, although the Masterpiece version makes a nod to it with a transparent groin plate with indentations underneath denoting two seats and a steering wheel.
The steeling wheel is on the right side at the top (the drivers side in Japan.)

May be quite well know, but the "meteor crash" on cybertron Primus, is actually ment to be Kaon, the birthplace of megatron and the decepticons
