Resort World at Sentosa has posted the image of the Transformers The Ride Evac statue at it's Facebook page.

Evac is a newly created Autobot character specially for the Transformers The Ride.
The Ride is set to open this coming Saturday, 3rd December 2011 at Universal Studios Singapore at Sentosa .

I still don't understand why they are using a pretty recent character name that's already sort of established within the Transformers franchise, for this 'new character' in the TF ride. Or will this character actually be the same as 'helicopter' Evac?

I doubt it, since this guy is a "new recruit" and all.

Cool statue. Nice to see it's not BBB or Prime.

That's actually pretty darn cool. Hopefully if they open the ride stateside they'll make another statue

If you guys learned anything from the Ride, Evac has been around in the Transformers universe for a while. He was just never used before in anything major.

We all know who the CURRENT character Evac is, Captain Obvious... read my question again:

BTW: your non-working link should actually be: Evac (disambiguation)?

Evac from TF Cybertron, and a couple of redeco toys from the Movie lines aren't enough of a reason not to use the name. It is a name they have the license for, they might as well use it. It doesn't need to be a helicopter.

Or you both could've done it like this. The link can say anything you want. Pull up a quote on this post to see how.

I just wish this ride was coming to the States. I'm not a fan of roller coasters but I'd have to ride this one on principal. But if they do a figure of it, does that make it Swerves partner? Cuz that's what I will be using it as.

This ride isn't a roller coaster... why does everyone think it is?
