I saw Transformers a second time yesterday and noticed something. Megatron is the only transformer that still resembles a cybertronian transformer. He never scanned an earth-like machine like the other transformers. So, if he is brought back by some miracle in a 2nd transformers movie, I wonder if he will become the Megatron we know from the cartoon. An interesting scenario to ponder.
What? A Walther P38 U.N.C.L.E. Special, lol?! A large PISTOL?!
I hope not.
Maybe he'd look more like Galvatron. A big cannon.
I was thinking the same thing... he should come back as a big cannon... I cant see him coming back as a puny pistol
I never liked the fact that he turned into a pistol in the cartoon. They have to bring Megatron back though.
from imdb:
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." Megatron was also given a less humanoid face to make him more menacing.
although it's true he didn't appear to ever transform into anything in the movie
he didn't scan a vehicle. he was just naked robot megatron. no disguise.
Yeah. He went from being frozen to going into battle. No time to worry about becoming an earth vehicle or whatever.
