    I just got this email as an annual pass member. The ride will open May 4-6 for annual pass holders.

    What's up with Meg's hand? I know it's a gun or a flashlight......but it just looks odd on him.

    SWEET!! Me and a bunch of buddies were going April 2nd to get our year pass so we can go back for the opening but worried that it would have been blacked out. This is very good news :D 

    I'm curious if that exclusive of Evac will be available to buy then too...

    I just rode this ride in SIngapore last week when I was on holiday.

    IT'S FRICKING AWESOME.

    I came out with a beaming smile that it took several minutes to shift!

    Annoyingly, no EVAC figure was available at Universal in Singapore though.

    I don't want to ruin any of the ride, but suffice it to say the last bit was so awesome, everyone in my cart burst into spontaneous applause

    I'll be there on the 4th, that's for sure. I'll be sprinting to the lower lot when the gate opens. It's literally on the opposite end of the park.

    Optimus and Megatron have taken their place on the mural and just as I have been saying and reporting they are NOT statues they basically cardboard cutouts placed a few feet in front on the actual mural wall giving it the 3d effect.

    Here is your link and pictures:

    Why's that funny? That's what it's called when something is opened before the grand opening, it's done so the staff can get familiar with the operation of it with actual people.

    Simply the pervert in me. ;)  That's all. I actually had no idea that "soft opening" was a term used in the industry. Thanks for the insight.
