    Based on the first two, the rides themselves are virtually the same... it is just the exterior of the building itself and some of the merchandise items that are different.

    I've been to the other two (California and Singapore) and will be trying out this one in three days time on the way to BotCon... so hopefully I'll be the first fan in the world to do all three.

    (probably not the first person in the world though, as I'm sure there would be some people constructing all three of them who had to test each one out first)

    I'm in Orlando for vacation this week and was able to ride this before the opening. It's killer and I say that as a starch Bayverse opponent. I hope every fan can enjoy this experience at some point.

    Went to the grand opening. The ceremony was awesome, but nothing beats getting Spielberg, Cullen, and Morshower to sign my movie poster!!!!

    I'm amused that the Senior VP is a Brony.

    Oh...wait, read that wrong. Bryony...

    Also jealous of the signed poster Citricon. And of having a day off to get on an epic ride.

    ^ Oh, I know. I'm just having some fun with words, not the person, or the fact that Bryony is a female name (which I also knew). My amusement goes wasted.

    I just watched the opening video on YouTube. What is that song at the end of the ceremony that sounds like the original theme, but isn't?

    OMFG! Words can't describe how amazing it was being there! From seeing Peter Cullen to Steven Spielberg it was just amazing! The whole show just totally blew me alway! The ride was complete awesomeness and I completely fell immersed in the transformers universe! This moment will live with me forever.
