The tour brings together entertainment leaders Hasbro, Inc., Blockbuster L.L.C., Paramount Home Entertainment, and Universal Studios Hollywood with The Hub in an event that engages consumers and brings the AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS to life through a highly interactive brand experience for the whole family.

"The Hub of TRANSFORMERS: Great American Tour" will celebrate the franchise in all its iterations including this summer's hit film from Paramount Pictures Transformers: Dark of the Moon, as well as the all-new CGI animated television series "Transformers Prime" from Hasbro Studios, and the original 1980s animated television series -- both of which can currently be seen on The Hub.

Universal Studios Hollywood will also offer a special sneak peek of its new cutting- edge mega attraction, "Transformers: The Ride-3D," opening in Spring 2012. The dynamic, motion-based thrill ride will tell an original "TRANSFORMERS" story using original, photo-realistic 3D-HD media, sophisticated special effects and one of the most elaborate roaming flight simulator ride systems ever created.
