Finally get to see legal interior photos, not much has changed in the past month :sneaky:
 
How do we know they didn't just post a photo from Hollywood?

Just to let everyone know, the Linkin Park rumor from Screamscape has been debunked, they won't be playing the Summer concert series. Earth, Wind, & Fire is playing on June 22nd. The remaining lineup is on the Universal Facebook page.

Universal will never host a hard rock band, especially one that popular. They can't handle the crowds or the liability of potential moshing. Their poor crowd control can't even handle Kelly Clarkson fans.
 
Actually, it is not uncommon to have some softs before the Passholders Preview. The announced passholders previews pretty much guarantee that it will have a long line for them. So they usually run at least a few regular unannounced softs to get the crew up to speed before they hold the preview. A Passholder Preview is NOT like a soft open where they can close at any moment because of issues with the ride without MAJOR complaints from the passholders. People will expect it to be running during these previews. The order in which they usually open an attraction is , Cast Previews, softs, annual passholders preview, more softs, grand opening.
 
According to the Annual Passholders' Passport, AP-holders will have the chance to purchase not an AP-exclusive pin, but an AP-exclusive Autobot decal. It will go for $7.95 + tax, and will be sold at the Supply Vault beginning June 9th.
 
Again, thanks for the heads-up, ReelJustice!

OTPN posted an update, which shows the M&G building has gone vertical:

Oh, and in Part 2, there's a pic of the area where the Jersey barriers were, and are now gone:

If Universal handles AP previews for TF just like they did for Despicable Me, it's early park admission, and hotel guests can ride it. I could be wrong as well since this ride is a bigger deal than DM.
 
Wow Bobwadd, you must have stole Shaq's cyberdyne contact, as there's no way Id EVER notice that flaw, WAAAY up there at the top of the building, just sick!!!

But being that is is so high up & hard to notice though, its not like its something that sticks out like a sore thumb, & certainly doesnt bother me, so I can see them not really wanting to prioritize fixing something that no one else besides you would notice.













& from pics Ive seen before actually going to the building, the Megatron cut out looked like it was just all black, so it was a cool surprise to actualy see the detail of the damaged interior of the building!
