When a Transformer takes on an alternate mode for the purpose of disguise, they are mimicking that form, they don't actually become what that form represents. They are "robots in disguise". To accomplish this, they physically alter their forms, and when necessary, use holograms to help maintain the disguise illusion, especially when battle damage or lack of a driver might otherwise give them away.
