Megatron's been banned on flights for a few years now. Robot Mode is the solution.

According to this, you're not allowed to have it at all. It turns into a gun so it's a no go. Even in bot mode.

Wonder which Megatron this applies to. Hope it's not the Legends one, that would be silly.

That's a report from 2002... not exactly news anymore.

This has been going on for a long time. In the security line at Denver International Airport they used to have a big sign up (around X-Mas time) with a pic of Megatron. It may still be there.
