my version of a 'inbetween" body for megatron from the idw series.
I envisioned him to take this form right when he first quit as a miner and started pursuing the decepticon cause.this explains the "v2' miner body I hope.
this is why I also tried to add styling cues from his miner body and his devastation body to the current body in the comics.
he's actually a triple changer too now,bot,tank and cannon emplacement.
