Oh, guys! I so want to go there! To see They! I even get used to Peter Cullen's voice If I get a visa, I will there… Oh, I WILL there!!!

OMG! That ride is soooooo awesome!
I wept.
firehawc_69
Ooh! I forgot I wanted to go today! I forgot I had a car show scheduled today but learned last night that it was cancelled. Woot!

Also, I like how on the front page the video window is now the freeze-frame of Cullen recording his lines with Optimus next to him, rather than Peter Jackson and some guys sitting on the King Kong 360 Ride. Much more fitting.

The May 4-6 is an AP Exclusive date. Right now is still considered testing.
He'll be at the grand opening.

Weird since that's what the email i got called the May 4-6 dates. "Tech Rehearsal". I wonder what the point is in the RSVP if they're already letting people on it now

wheres Bay?

The ride is now open to the public for Tech Rehearsal. But it can and will close at any time.
TheTFReview
Yep, it will span multiple days.

So the employee preview is 2 nights in a row?
TheTFReview
Tomorrow is the employee preview. + There are rumors of a short soft opening to the public later in the day.
firehawc_69
Well, the NEST store is open…annual pass…amusement park…free time…why not?
Optibotimus
Out of curiosity..why are you guys saying tomorrow? As far as i know, the preview night for annual ticket holders isn't until May 4th-6th.
firehawc_69
I might go Saturday just to check out the store, but no chance before then.
TheTFReview
I'll be there tomorrow repping my g1 t-shirt. Hopefully i'll see some of you guys there.
NCStarscream
Awesome.
I want to go visit so badly.
Optibotimus
Then that WILL be mine!!!! Well, hopefully if it's there for the preview night like i said. Thanks for the heads up!!

He said it was about 1.5 ft square. That might even be a 2:1 scale or bigger, because I think the one Shia carried around was only about 7 in square. He said it was made of pewter so it's got some weight to it.
