I rode this the other day and thought that while the themeing was fantastic, it had a few issues issues that unfortunately took away from the overall experience.
While I have ridden Transformers in SIN and Men in Black and Buzz Lightyear, I understand this ride was never built to the same caliber as these rides.
Here were my running thoughts:
- The entrance looks really good. The first room looks great, although the walls are starting to chip in places already.
- The second room (main queue switchback) room looks quite average. Not a huge fan of the Lego blocks. The projection of Batman is no where near loud enough though.
- The overall ride themeing was great, but the static props were a little strange. Not used to seeing that on a ride of this scale. But still, I didn't let that take away from the overall experience.
- I found that shooting the targets was a little hit and miss. Some targets made the gun vibrate and some didn't (perhaps the screen targets aren't meant to), as well as some hits didn't turn the targets 'off'.
- The 3D screen targets were WAY too fast.
- The projector over the doors between rooms looks weird. You can see the edge of the projection. I'd rather see pitch black.
- The sync issues really need to be sorted out (which I assume is being worked on). The fog machines also need to be resynced.
- I hate it when I see the screens turn on/off in front of me.
- The sound needs to be worked on. It's not loud enough.
