    I think I've got the best Megatron design ever! If Michael Bay doesn't make Megatron shrink into a little gun, then make him a big gun! What I mean is make Megatron transform into some kind of http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8934156388492044417
    field artillery cannon. That would be perfect, he could even have a fusion cannon. I already made one rough sketch, I should make another one and put it on here. If only Michael Bay could hear about this design.

    Eh, I'm not sure that would work. Why would Megatron ditch his highly maneuverable aircraft mode for a stationary artillery piece?

    That said, I'd still like to see your rendition of a movie bot that transforms into that.

    do you have any idea the scale that would take? people bitch about that enough already, imagine making an artillery canon 2 stories tall. pass.

    You probably want to look at something like Krupp K5 railway gun used by the Nazis in WWII:

    While a better size for Megatron, it would unfortunately confine him to Earth's rail network, not to mention making him antiquated technology.

    WAY too small, and I agree with Sso02V that the jet is way more maneuverable

    Megaotron should retain an alt mode with flight capanilities, and it could work relally well if he tuned into something that had a big gun, like a scud, a tank or some massive armored vehicle, so he should be a triple changer.

    Actually, I was talking about his alt-mode. I personally would like to see him come back, especially if the leaked treatment is real, as that would be awesome to see in the movie theatre :D .

    Two words:

    Triple changer. Megs has done it before, and the movie needs one anyway. With all the crazy guns and shit popping out of all the movie characters already, it's a natural plot extension.

    F-22 Raptor. According to Ghosts of Yesterday, Starscream's alternate mode resembles Megatron.

    I thought it was the Ghost 1 probe that looked like Megatron? Seeing as it was reverse engineered from him.
