Transformers: The Ride - Summer 2013

[Jakemeister]

It's not that it is just a tall building, but walking around it, it is much wider. It seems like it flows over the sidewalks on 3 sides that face the street and it definitely looks like it flows more into the street on New York and Lagoon side. I think the parade route we have this year will continue that route.

On the note of military costumes, it's a non-issue. You portray it as not the U.S. military and not a mockery and then there really won't be issues. I think 2011's Nightingales was more likely to cause issues with military than a N.E.S.T. costume.

Oh don't get my post wrong I don't think they're trying to mock, recreate, or belittle the importance of a uniform, and I'm not offended at all. Let me put it this way. Imagine someone hands you your 2nd favorite flavor of ice cream for free. You are happy to have it, but would of been just that much happier with your favorite. I agree the uniforms look fantastic, and will go great with the theme of the ride. The last thing I want to do is seem like someone who gets offended over the smallest tidbits of things.

I don't think anyone is getting offended and for the people that are no one is going tno take strong notice of it, as it has little grounds in a fantasy world. They would of had to of gotten offended from the movies too.

That would be like Producers/Directors getting offended at Disaster or Secret Service getting offended at Men in Black.

Nothing offensive about a fictional organization that is not displaying any sort of bad taste. Art draws from life.

Could everyone take a picture from this angle with the buildings in the foreground? I absolutely LOVE this picture.

^ The device in the above picture is an EATON Air Cooled Disk Brake, spring actuated with either pneumatic or hydraulic release. Think of it as a really big clutch (also another use for it). I imagine it is being used on the elevator system.

:stunned: I wonder if the EATON plant in my town here in New York made that! So cool!

Sorry if this has been asked, but does anyone know what the facade will be for this attraction? I'm really holding out for a New York facade...

No one really knows exactly what this building will be themed to but we do know it will be something different from the USH attraction. We also know that Optimus Prime will guard the entrance.

Nope, not gonna watch

 

[captainjack]

Could it be a warehouse type facade like what was seen in Dark of the Moon? The last time I was at Uni and saw the exit doors they seemed to have some kind of rolling steel garage doors that would cover the exits once the ride goes down for the night. Correct me if I'm wrong but do the other attraction exits have those? :shrug:

 

[knokout1]

Those are entrances to get things like ride vehicles in and out. It was mentioned somewhere that you can see MiB's to the left when you go into the training room.

 

[captainjack]

But these are on the front side of the building. The side facing the lagoon. I could see if these were facing the Monsters Cafe where they would be hidden ALOT easier IMO. : thumbs: It just doesn't make sense to me why Uni would put something like that in plain view.

Yep, I see them ALL the time.

I would assume it could be used for facade work and for transporting vehicles etc..IF thats where they do that kind of thing. Would make sense
