Transformers: The Ride - Summer 2013

Oh duh! I was thinking about the figures on the side of the building at USH...

Exactly. Remember that Adirondack doesn't do murals. They do big sculpturey things, and do it very well.

As long as we don't get that hideous USH facade.

Got an update, picks won't be up for about an hour though. On my way back from HHN now.

Update from earlier this evening,

Those tall vertical towers towards the end of the update are parts of the lifts. I can't remember if they are the parts where the counterweight glides up and down or just part that the floor uses as a guide to go up and down. Sorry no technical terminology here folks Now where is Spideyfreak and Teebin to better explain :look:

 

[BJCool]

OMG! Scaffolding is up and they're using scissor lifts. Must be Transformers. :shifty:

The difference between Monday and today is staggering.

Almost forgot to add these in,

Odd, I don't remember those particular lift pieces going in at USH... However, they could have been easily missed because the lift installation happened after most of the rood was put in. I think those pieces will just act as a guide track for the lift. There is a square vertical truss of sorts that we should see installed soon. I'm pretty sure that will take the main load of the elevators.

EDIT: They're already installing the second floor!?!?!

Yeah the only reason I know they are parts of the lift is because I got to see the lift in action this past Sunday. While on the ride it broke down several times and I went through the lifts with the vehicles facing away from the screens in "return?" Mode.

Yes USH lift was lowered in much later into the build.

More USH lift.

Wow this building is coming up very quickly. Could we see this building enclosed by the end of the year?

Just remember . . . Once it's enclosed, no more good pictures.

Except exterior theming.

Its be going up so quickly that is its almost caught up to Snow White Mine coaster as far as construction goes and that ride seems like they have been working on forever now

Any pictures are good pictures. As long as there are updates, I don't care.

 

[Hatetofly]

Wonder where this was used?

And more stuff referring to it only costing Hollywood 40 Million for Transformers!

40 million? Universal are the masters of putting out amazing quality at an amazing price.

And now the cloning makes even more sense

Could. But most likely in Jan.

Just thought I would share this link to a review I did that has NOTHING to do with this thread.
