    Is he a gun? A tank? A mining contraption?

    He turns into a metaphor that demonstrates IDW doesn't place any emphasis on transformation or alt-modes.

    A tank that he just never uses for no reason.

    They did, it was that non-jet-ship-flying thing. But he never turns into it. And his design still has bits of the tank mode. And they don't talk about. Ever.
