We question, however, the wisdom of building Transformers so close to The Amazing Spiderman which has been celebrated as one of the best rides on the planet. Spiderman, which has an identical ride system and similar track layout spread out on one level, is always brought up and compared when considering Transformers. There is hardly a review of the ride that does not mention the original use of the ride system. Will this Transformers be a new, improved version of the attractions currently in operation in Singapore and Los Angeles? Doubtful. Still, we hope that they throw enough into the ride to make it seem fresh and different from the brilliant Spiderman attraction just steps away in Islands of Adventure.
So much for the rumors that Transformers was developed as a potential replacement attraction for Spiderman in the event that Disney and Universal come to an agreement to end Universal’s licensing agreement for the Marvel characters in Orlando.
