    I had the same thought - it's very Cyclonus-like.

    Quintessa and Infernocus?
    They'd die to the Autobots anyways.

    Hasbro should use this as a retooling of Voyager Megatron, repaint it purple, add a new head and weapon. Movieverse Cyclonus.

    he needs a place to store squishies without accidentally squishing them.
    some bots and cons try to blend in, so they need a squishy box to fool squishies into thinking they're squishy-operated.
    and minion storage and transportation, as not all cons are equal.

    Is Megatron's jetmode an alien-ified version of a real Earth jet? I vaguely remember someone identifying it as one at some point.

    Until seeing this it never occurred to me that Megatron's jet mode is the shape of a sword. The shape of the wings always looked weird to me for a plane but they are the shape of a sword hand guard. I'm head cannoning a deleted scene where Quintessa knights him at the beginning of the movie and tells him he will be her sword and reformats him into a jet shaped like a sword then sends him after the staff.

    In the movie he kidnapped some humans,(spoke of, not seen) but they could have still thrown them into a windowless compartment.

    Lol. Yeah. I don't think megatron cares.

    So, he needs a cockpit because he kidnaps people. I still don't get it. Why a cockpit? Why not an onboard jail. Surely he doesn't care about his victims comfort.

    They were seen for a second. Whenever Megatron transforms and lands in the desert, you see two people fall out onto the ground.

    Who says its comfortable? :lol 

    Though I suppose Megs has a cockpit for the same reason any Cybertronian TF in any other series has cockpits/driver seats. To make it obvious it's still some kind of vehicle.

    They should use this concept as Cyclonus in the Bumblebee movie.

    Maybe he kept the two hostages in it.

    Almost every transformer jet has a cockpit.

    Reminds me of this guy:

    Well, yes. It's obviously an alien jet. I'm saying I can see why someone would say the shilouette was inspired by that real-life jet.

    He means that he can see similarities in the design.

    Edit: Oops, I was a bit late. :lol
