We all know that Megs transforms into Cybertronian space ship. Bus I saw that the ship had windshield which means that the ship is supposed to have passengers. And I think that this is unfair. I mean from where did he got his alt mode and who are the passengers supposed to be - minicons?

Where's the windshields?

And it isnt unfair. The War Within TFs also had cockpits and windshields.

On the nose of the ship. Look at the nose of the ship in the image of the toy and you'll se the windshield:

And here's another one:

If in Cybertron there are only TFs, why does the ship Megatron transforms in has a driver's seat? For who is that ship designed for?

Many moons ago, I asked the same question about the alt.modes in The War Within. I can't see the windshield on the Megatron toy, though.

Look at the selection, surrounded with red. That's the windshield! :

Is that a windshield? It looks more like an air intake.

Could be a Dustbuster!

Considering that the ship has windshield, I'd say that there are supposed to be passengers. But are the passengers minicons? Are they transformers at all? We'll never know.

It looks like an air intake.
Although it could be a cannon or blaster of some sort.

An_De, do you have the toy?

it's a thin piece of black plastic that holds the two top and bottom halves of the nose together.

I don't have the toy. But in the movie I saw the same windshield! When he transformed to escape from where they kept him frozen, I saw that he had windshield.

I can't find any screen captures of his alt.mode to check.

Either I saw windshield, either I am hallucinating...

Thats no winshield. You need your vision checked lol

And transformers have cockpits because they can be piloted by smaller TF as seen in comics and the cartoons. Cosmos, Astrotrain, Omega supreme,powerglide, they were piloted sometimes by smaller TF. And then you have minicons and micromasters that also fit inside.

None of whom feature in the movie continuity so the theory is redundant, i'm afraid.

I just looked at my Leader Megatron, that black piece is a structural support; doesn't resemble a window or a cockpit.

It looks like an extraterrestrial anal probe

You'r making that assumption on imcomplete facts though. Frenzy jumped inside Barricade. Theres still other movies coming out.

Currently, it is neither confirmed nor refuted.
We'll just have to wait..

Barricade was a police car. Police cars are designed to hold passengers. And Frenzy happens to be what, 5ft tall or something?

And Barricade only has space inside because he's an earth vehicle in disguise. Megatron wouldn't because, well, why would he design himself to carry smaller bots around? He's not in disguise and so wouldn't have any space for a cockpit.

I really dont think he's the type to want to be carrying smaller robots around.

Unless he has a pet Kremzeek...

Egad, that was poor. Off with my head!

I don't think that Kremzeek will be shown in either of the movies...
