Transformers: The Ride - Summer 2013

[Andy]

The rides media equipment makes a slight difference (terms of quality and brightness) over the Hollywood version :look:

If we DO get an engeron stand, I'm gonna be impressed that UO took the time to build and theme a stand for the highly popular Energon Drink over at USH. BTW, what does Engeron taste like????

Fellas fellas, calm down, its just a ride, yall are getting WAY too excited for this!

Syke, yall cant be excited enough!

My guesses-

Today- Oceaneering/Opening team previews
Thursday- Contractor/construction worker, Today Show hosts/crew previews
Friday -Saturday- Ride ops. Team Member previews, POSSIBLE public softs
Sunday- PUBLIC SOFTS!!!!

Does this sound about right?

What if they replaced Mel's with Starbot Cafe 2.0 next to the new stands? That would make Transformers more of a little area with a section on the water.

It's possible. I'm predicting the 24th, but we'll have to wait and see.

Right right, I meant to put "Not in any particular order."

Doubt it. Mel's Diner is a staple in every Universal park out there except for IOA, of course.

In a good way or a bad way?

The ride operated flawlessly. If things go well overall from tonight. I can see Fri / Sat being very possible. Besides stealing some thunder from Antarctica and 24 hr Disney Day would just be a bonus.

We officially have the most advanced version with recent advances in 4k projector tech.

I can confirm this :thumbs: A lot brighter then FJ & Simpsons (which is something I complain about every time).

HTF/Nitro, do either of you know if soft opens will be starting at or around 5pm this upcoming week, or will they begin earlier? Hoping to get some ride time in before my 4pm check in.

 

[PourJudgment]

I have family in town so this work well for their visit. I'll be using all manor of social media....and an inside source, to keep up to date and make sure they make it in before they leave. Thanks to all that contribute.

The first couple of days will be in the afternoon and go until closing. From there the length of openings will increase to eventually include opening with the park.

I'm going to be there bright and early tomorrow, and I wouldn't be going if I didn't have a strong feeling I would have a chance (believe me, I would much rather sleep in), but as with anything in this industry...here's to hoping!
