As the ride vehicle is being lifted, it is surrounded by a foot-high cylindrical screen that tricks riders into thinking they are actually moving forward. In turn, they feel as if they are racing down the street in hot pursuit of Megatron. Once inside the 2-story, bunker-style building that houses the new ride, guests walk through an interactive queue designed to look like an elaborate control room.
Characters from the movie, like the no-nonsense General Morshower and Autobot Ratchet, appear on flat screens and do a good job of building the excitement. As the storyline goes, guests are now "recruits" who, along with soldiers from N.
