Transformers, the electrifying blockbuster celebrated for its multi-generational appeal, inventive storyline, spectacular action sequences and special effects, will now be developed as a new theme park mega-attraction in a partnership between Universal Parks & Resorts, Hasbro, Inc. and DreamWorks Pictures.
The attraction will fuse 3D-HD media, mega special effects and stunning robotics with a ride system that will transform perceptions of theme park experiences. The rides are scheduled to make their debuts in early 2011, first at Universal Studios Singapore and then at Universal Studios Hollywood. In Transformers, Earth's humans are caught in the middle of an intergalactic war between the friendly Autobots and the evil Decepticons, which are able to change into a variety of objects, including cars, trucks, planes and other technological creations.

I was kidding about the Mach 1 coaster, but what about a looping coaster that does 120 mph +?
As for the bumper cars, when will somebody come out w/ a demolition derby theam on one? I guess that would be just too easy.

GI Joe and Transformers were two beloved things from my childhood. Being a spoiled youngest son I had everything. The Giant Optimus Prime with trailer, the huge GI Joe Aircraft Carrier. The one thing I coudl never get though was the awesome backyard the kids had in the commercials for the things.
I am so glad they have brought back Transformers and are Bringing back GI Joe. Hasbro had brilliant marketing with both of them.

Anybody else seen the commercial on Fox for Transhomers? It looks hysterical.
