    Not like we don't know already, but I can say without a shadow of a doubt this is in fact TRASFORMERS THE RIDE... Project 609 it is called is in fact TRANSFORMERS... bank on that... Can't post what I seen to prove it.. Just take my word...

    TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...

    BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

    Sounds great ... so is this a replica of a ride Universal has in California? Another simulator type ride? Is there a build/completion date?
    I think we are looking to another Universal trip next May.

    More than likely a clone from USH... And I believe December 2013 is the target opening date...

    Another site has also shown supposed poster artwork for Transformers the Ride and also mentions a 2013 opening date.

    Yep.. I have seen it and may or may not have it in my possession as well... But, if I do, I won't post it anywhere since I believe it to be copyrighted material that was not meant to be for public viewing just yet... But the promo art work has the logo with TRANSFORMERS TEH RIDE underneath and then COMING TO UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT DECEMBER 2013...

    Again, I'd pass it on to a mod to post here but I don't think that would be the right thing to do... Plus, I don't want to be the reason Universal lawyers come down on Intercot...

    I'll leave that to John or a mod to post the image if they decide they want to.. But i won't pass it on, if I have it or not...

    I have to comment that they are working FAST and FURIOUS on this project. When we were at US last week the work was going on non-stop.

    They were even working right up to the 9PM Cinema show (flying in framing panels for the foundation) and only shut down because they had to shut the lights out.

    They are working very fast on this project... The cement foundation is pretty much done... The maintenance bay in the basement is getting constructed... The elevator shafts are pretty much visible in the foundation...

    I hope they keep working quickly! I would LOVE for this to be open by HHN in 2013.

    However, with Universal's track record for late openings, I won't hold my breath.

    Besides, if the ride is as fantastic as I've heard it is, I'm sure it will take some time to finish up!

    So excited for it! This is the surge of energy US needs. Along with HP 2.0 at US, it will surely be a great time to go to US. If I were Disney, I'd be upping the budget on Avatar and working on some other spectacular ride to "answer" US. Universal has certainly thrown down the gauntlet and attendance numbers don't lie...

    Their aim is June/July... Reality, I am thinking December.... Bound to have construction delays as what always happens with Florida's construction laws...

    Well, Universal has already blacked out AP dates for ALL of July 2013, and they never do the entire month of July, in Universal Studios (yes, they blacked out dates in July for IOA but not the studios side).. They normally only block out dates when they have something opening... Hmmmm.....

    Wow, a good sign for sure!

    I wonder if it will remain that way. I would venture that since this is unprecedented, it's a very good indication that they're intent on staying on schedule this time.

    It seems to me that the Hollywood version went up VERY quick, so maybe this is promising!

    Steel beams have risen from the foundation and above the construction walls... This is only one level... The building will actually have three levels so two more levels still need to be added on... This building is going to be tall...

    I saw some pics the other day and it looks GOOD so far!

    We'll be there on Thursday and I can't wait to see it in person!

    Saw some arial shots of the track layout today and how they are exactly the same as the USH version.

    The Universal complex in Orlando is going to be fantastic in another 2-3 years.
