Where's a black repaint when you want one? 
The perfect haiku would have just two syllables: Airwolf.

The shape of the windows and the lights underneath are hardly a random similarity, both elements match pretty closely. Animated was riddled with fan wank. Also, if you consider the oft-mentioned similarities of Animated (earth mode) Megatron and Super Megatron, it seems even more likely.
Perhaps "homage" is still too strong a description, as the entire design is not the same, but I think at the very least some partial inspiration is clear.
