I mean......if rumors are to be believed

I think the they will not fix the ride but let it be in this state for the next few years it has left. Would love to be wrong but I feel like while the attraction should not be next on the block its location might have doomed it.


Also have you guys watched the Megatron actor? Like OMG, he gets away with things close to what Chucky used to back at HHN. Like he insults people looks...I thought that would be a no go in 2024 but I've see him do it many times now and both Megatron and Optimist Prime talk about SNW.

The Autobots are friends with Peach and Megatron is trying to forge and alliance with Bowser, lol. Love it

No. Not even remotely close or the same. Besides, some of those guests deserve it. He's a villain, he isn't meant to be nice. This is a non-issue.

Easiest way for performer leeway to vanish overnight is drawing attention to it online. Just saying.

I can still quote this ride & it's queue video... no shame

But more importantly, the family in my EVAC rode it for the first time & absolutely loved it. Very reactive to the "action". It made me smile.

Transformers was fun & operating well. Including Megatron's sewer splash attack

A few screens looked a tad "darker" & still no fog blast on level 2 with the cityscape mural.

The screen quality is nowhere near as good when it just opened. Either update the projectors or replace it with something more practical-effects heavy (Low-key rooting for the latter).

I would love to see it revamped with some more practical effects, alternative scenes, etc. They could totally give it the Spiderman treatment, plus it with some alternative scenes (have then alternate between vehicles)... They could easily get another 10 years out of it.

A lot of the physical scenery is generic enough to go to other locations entirely.

Has to be the projectors being stupid expensive, just like when FJ has problems. I think the first Flu network is still blurry and never got fixed lol
( just remembered Idk why but I think I saw a post on this forum back in 2016 that mentioned that first flu network is blurry on purpose)

I said it before, I'll say it again: with this thing being right next door to Mario, it's days are numbered. Just makes roo much sense with how limited the space is. This will be the last time I bring it up ahaha, because I didn't realize I had already said it on THIS page, lol.

And remind you again. It's still a great ride & thrills guests (many of them who have never been on it). In a screen-heavy/simulator park, it at least isn't stationary like Simpsons/Minions/DreamWorks

I was talking to a family while waiting to get on, they hadn't been to the park in years (early 90s, pre-JPRA). They were shocked when they realized Transformers was the former location of Backdraft & Special Effects Stage.

Eh.. in it's defense, it was there first. Nintendo is the obnoxious new neighbor.

At least no other CA park has this ride type, not even Disneyland (for at least another 10 years)

I mean, it didn't have any sort of master plan, like Disneyland did. Like Knott's Berry Farm, it just sort of evolved over time. Organically made parks often have quirky layouts. To me, it's part of their charm.

You mentioned the Spider-Man refurbishment. That happened 13 years after the ride debuted.

Transformers will turn 13 this year.
