Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase @ Universal Studios Singapore [New York Zone]

I was invited, via email, for a sneak preview to Universal Studios Singapore [henceforth USS] newest ride; Sesame Street Spaghetti Space Chase! 

Scheduled to be open to the public in March 2013, this space chase was said to be "a high-flying adventure designed for the whole family as you zip through the space mission and meet all your favourite Sesame Street characters" - as quoted from the official website. 

Photographs and video-recording are strictly disallowed and everyone was reminded again and again by the staff members on duty and the public address system within the attraction. 

I managed to take a few using my iphone but as you can see, the quality was quite bad! Not many annual pass holders actually attended the preview and together with my friend, we took the ride twice! 

As one of four heroes in the mission, you would first say good bye to your compatriots at Sesame Street before rocketing [slowly] to outer space where it is pitch black with thousands of captivating stars made up using the tips of optic fibers. Purpose of the Mission - to grab back the world's supply of spaghetti stolen by Macaroni the Merciless who was hidden in a planet away from Earth. 

My review - thrill lovers; stay away. There was nothing exciting or innovative about the ride and its target audiences are kids and adults who grew up watching Sesame Street (of which i am neither).

Location
Universal Studios Singapore
Sentosa Island

Precautions
For such a simple ride, it does have a comprehensive list of 'persons' who should not attempt to give the ride a try. In my opinion, the said "sudden tilting and acceleration" was incredibly mild. Nevertheless, you bear the risk, not me. =X

Additional Information
As with any rides in the theme park, you exit to a shop selling ride-themed souvenirs; guess Sesame Street fans would enjoy the extensive memorabilia on sale!
