The ride vehicles, developed by
Oceaneering International, are mounted to a track-roaming platform that provides the forward motion to move the vehicle through each show scene. The yaw motor and a
stewart platform with six
degrees of freedom attaching it to the platform allows the vehicle to move 360 degrees at different angles along the track. Each vehicle is fitted with a motor that controls the right side door through which guests board and leave. These vehicles are modeled after an Autobot named Evac and each vehicle accommodates twelve riders.
Queue and pre-show Riders enter the queue from the
Sci-Fi City themed area of Universal Studios Singapore, the
Lower Lot at Universal Studios Hollywood,
New York at Universal Studios Florida or Transformers: Metrobase at Universal Studios Beijing. The first portion of the queue is a large collection of switchbacks. The later part of the queue is themed as a
Nonbiological Extraterrestrial Species Treaty (NEST) base. A series of signs and video screens are located within this area. The video screens play briefings from
General Morshower, Ironhide, Wheelie and Ratchet, who explain that the
Decepticons have come to Earth in search of the AllSpark and are attacking the NEST base in order to recover the fragment stored there.
Optimus Prime concludes the briefing by introducing all of the
Autobots that are featured in the ride. Towards the end of the queue, guests are given a pair of
3D glasses. Once guests arrive at the loading station, they are grouped and loaded into a ride vehicle modeled on an Autobot named
Evac, whose mission is to take the AllSpark to safety with navigational help from a squad of NEST recruits (the riders).
Ride The ride begins with Evac (voiced by Dustin James Leighton) moving out of the loading station and making a turn. The vehicle approaches the first of thirteen 3D high-definition video screens which depicts
Ravage grabbing a canister containing the AllSpark. Evac spins 180° to face the second screen on which Bumblebee is fighting
Sideways for the AllSpark, which ends up in Evac's possession. Evac reverses into one of two elevator shafts which ascend to the second level of the attraction. During the ascent, Optimus Prime battles
Megatron and Grindor chases Evac who is furiously heading in reverse until Grindor's arm is broken off by a train. Megatron grabs Evac and the two struggle until Megatron breaks a water pipe, which sprays riders with water. Evac enters a dead end pathway before reversing and turning to face another 3D screen, which shows Megatron firing a missile at Evac while continuing to fight Optimus. Hot air and fog generate the illusion of an explosion. Evac then heads through the hole in a building which was caused by the explosion. Inside lies
Devastator, who is trying to suck everything out of the building. Ratchet and Ironhide open fire at Devastator while Evac reverses to escape the suction and continues moving when Devastator stops. Here the Autobot
Sideswipe helps in the battle against the Decepticon
Bonecrusher. Devastator returns to the scene with the vortex opened. Evac activates his "battle shields" and pulls himself through it. Once ejected from Devastator's "behind", Evac is caught by
Starscream from his grappling hook-like tool. Starscream then throws him across several city blocks before landing on a construction site and smashing into some drums which release clouds of fog resulting in Evac asking if the riders are okay. Optimus Prime and Megatron continue their battle in the construction site as Evac reverses away in an attempt to protect the AllSpark. Starscream appears for a second time but is chased away by two NEST helicopters. Evac then rotates to another section where Megatron then appears, reaching out for Evac. He is then foiled by Optimus who jumps from out of view, tackling Megatron and holding him on the edge of a building, and that's when Evac charges towards Megatron and forces the AllSpark into Megatron's chest causing both to freefall to the ground when Megatron grabs Evac. Bumblebee then saves Evac from destruction while playing
James Brown's "
I Feel Good" at the verse 'I got you.' Optimus Prime then reports Evac in and acknowledges him on the success of the mission. The last thing guests see before disembarking is the twisted wreckage of Megatron stuck in the ceiling near the exit.
Exit and Transformers Supply Vault Once the ride is complete, riders dismount the Evac vehicle at the unload station. Upon exiting the ride, guests are greeted with the
Transformers Supply Vault gift store, which sells items from the Transformers film franchise,
Transformers: The Ride – 3D merchandise and a variety of Transformers toys, including a toy of Evac exclusive to the ride. ==Cast==
