Transformers: The Ride - Summer 2013

TPV, are you for real? The zig zag lines are the chevrons, that's what a chevron is, a "V" shape. And you will notice them all over the TF building.

EDIT: Like here, below the pipes:

OK, so how hard was it than to just answer my original question with "The sideways black Vs on the building." I TOTALLY wouldve understood that, vs the array of multiple "Chevron Designs" that look NOTHING like that. & Im sorry, to me there is a BIG difference between a zig zag, & a V. A zig zag is a continuous string of up & down Vs, where as these are sideways Vs. Just ask anyone if the Vs on the buildings lok ANYTHING like a zig zag. To me, they dont. They look like sideways vs/arrow heads, so it isnt so cut & dry.

Maybe in a real usage it would be used to note which way whatever the heck should be traveling through those little pipes directly above are going? The only military use I know of for a Chevron is rank. So maybe the building is a Sergeant .

The reason I posted it that way is because I LOVE TO LEARN. Ideas and word are posted on this site, in Time magazine, on CNN.com that I don't have any understanding of. I like to search out the answer, so I might know even a wee bit more info than the person that used the word or phrase. So no, it was not meant as an insult; only as a reminder, and an admittance that I could not have explained it as thoroughly as a major encyclopedic website. :wave:

All I'm saying is it wouldve been a heck of alot easier if you just said the black Vs/arrow heads, or even pointed me to one of the construction photos like Felipe did with approximatelly where they are, that wouldve been fine. Me looking it up just made it even more confusing.

Well, glad that's settled

[doc brown]

call me weird but i really like the way this is turning out i think the industrial look is spot on :thumbs:

 

[Themeparkvigilante]

Man, I'm beginning to think the exterior work will done alot sooner than my beginning of March prediction.... which would be AWESOME!!!!!

 

[Shadow Carelli]

I bet Prime will be up by next Friday or maybe even earlier!!! :happy:

 

[Felipe]

Thanks for the updates, Enbee and Robert!! :thumbs:

And thanks for posting, BJCool! You're the update master! :hail:


I wonder how far along the shop is. The front looks pretty darn close to being finished, so even if they don't finish all around the building, they could just open this one side and keep the others walled off. Though, at the pace they're going, the whole exterior will probably be done before the end of next week. It's just insane, their pace.

 

[Cwoolboy]

I gotta admit, the closer the exterior gets to being finish the more I think I really really like it. Fits into the TF world pretty nicely if I may say so.....oh, and it's purrrty too (especially at night). Can't wait to see it in person.

 

[PourJudgment]

Day and night, the pics don't do it justice (I know it's been said before) The building is just awesome

Anyone know if this is gonna have an outdoor queue?

 

[USO92]

Anyone know if this is gonna have an outdoor queue?

It has been said that due to space inside it will flow outside as well. I believe that is what the overhangs are for on each side of the entrance :thumbs:

don't be surprised to see them drop holes into the road in front of the lagoon and along the new york side of the road...

Good call. I feel like they could make an outdoor overflow look pretty cool if they continue with the theme.

I'm just happy BJC can find them to post them...:look: I'm guessing soon walls will be pushed back to allow the store and donkey to open up as soon as maybe next week ray: They can easily have people go in and out the back area that's already being painted and preped while keeping the other side doors closed up.
