Transformers: The Ride - Summer 2013

[Themeparkvigilante]

Oh my bad. Thought it was mine they were referring to from page 62 way back on 07-01-2012. I went for the UH early shadow version on that one

Oh, so that was you! That was an awesome job, much better than mine.

Do ya'll think there would be enough interest/people who would participate in a thread specifically for making & posting photo mock-ups/alterations of all of the various rides, maybe a way of showing how we would like to see or guess how a certain design could or might come out, or taking requests for how someone might envision something & than have someone else attempt making it? Or better yet, just theme park related fan art in general?

A possible project I thaught of doing is if I get enough/the right photos, of making a possible mock-up of the finished product, walls down & all, but that would be a heck of a challenge.

Expect an OU update tomorrow.

Wait, expect multiple OU updates this weekend.

 

[Hatetofly]

Seriously, dude?

Welcome to theme park forums.

And this statement proves just that :thumbs:

Awesome, can't wait for the updates. I just want to say that I still can't believe that a childhood favorite cartoon of mine, and many others, more than 20 years ago has not only been made into several major motion pictures and now is going to be a ride at one of my favorite theme parks. :happy:

The gift shop for the ride is expected to be opened by early March :happy:

Themeparkvigilante and SGT623 you guys are psychic!

Did we ever get to the bottom of the long term plans for the top floor 'garage doors'?

They're for the flying Transformers, you see Teehee!

No, haha, I would also guess it's for servicing the second floor elements, if ever anything needs to be removed or brought in.

Wait, expect multiple OU updates this weekend.

Woohoo!! :happy:

I was thinking of going tomorrow, especially with Mardi Gras, but after going both days last weekaend and having had a hectic week, I'm just drained. Instead I'm gonna have a relaxing weekend at home and then go crazy next weekend :dance:

 

[YETI PINTRADER]

I'll be out at the park tomorrow (well later today I guess) and excited to see the progress in person.

[figment1986]

anyone read the barcode... it's not reading but look at the number... "007", coincidence?

 

[captainjack]

The doors are for Starscream and his seekers

If the giftshop were to open first would that be like DM? Didn't Silly.Stuff open before DM last year? I'm getting old and my memory is fading

Yes, I believe it did.

 

[captainjack]

That's what I thought Bob. :thumbs: It would be cool to get a look at how the interior of this will look and if there is any difference between this shop and The Transformers Vault in USH.

I hope they carry at least some of the old school Sunbow TF shirts like USH had The quality of the ones Hot Topic carried weren't so good.

and good pics btw!

 

[Felipe]

Thanks for the pics, Themeparkvigilante! :thumbs:

I love seeing this come together a bit more every day! Looking forward to more pics! :thumbs:

 

[UK-Trigg]

Great pics, thanks for sharing. The building is really starting to come together, I was unsure at first but the more they add the more I like.

It is never going to blend in with the rest of the area but a huge building like that would stand out whatever they did.

Looking forward to seeing this progress.
