IMBD Triva wrote:Megatron's classic alternate mode was a Walther P38 pistol, but Hasbro the owners, and official distributors of the toyline stated that they would not produce a gun of any kind for their characters (it's also illegal to make replica toy guns in several jurisdictions). Also the writers thought it was like "having Darth Vader transform into his own lightsaber and someone else swinging him around," so it was changed to an "interstellar jet."

Where is Optimus's trailer going to go when he transforms?

The producers and directors thought it would look ridiculous to have mass-shifting (our fancy term for things growing) in the film. Which is why Soundwave isn't in the film. His new Cybertronian jet form was made so he could:
*fly
*have a destructive alt mode while still being around Prime's size

I just hope Megatron kills some humans in the film!
