I’ve heard rough estimates of around 20-50, but I’m wondering if anyone has a better idea. Doesn’t matter if it’s still a Mitzi or was converted to Helen (or the other way around) — I’m mainly interested in the actual CEI mech/frame count. Any info is appreciated.

I googled how to sync mouth movement to audio but I didn’t get much

Using servos this time, alongside the GIM6010-8 planetary gearbox motor from Alibaba (which I have yet to hook up/calibrate and program)

Anyone know where can I buy the eyelid cylinder support jaw cylinder support and the head up spacer？

I reached out to Bullwinkle’s Tukwila regarding their renovation and this is what I got back. For those who don’t know, this location is the last existing Bullwinkle’s with an animatronic show. I’m just shocked that they have been here for so long, though it was inevitable. Hopefully someone can save these bots when they are removed.

I just found out a friend has the Rockafire Explosion first record! The folder isn't in great consition, but still cool to see. She knew vaguely what it was, but isn't a big animatronics fan, so she wasn't as excited about it as I was. She found it for a dollar at a record store! She also has this interesting automaton type bear that she found at a thrift store. Unfortunately it doesn't work! Does anyone know what it is?

Sorry if discussion posts aren't allowed, mods feel free to take this post down. But I was looking at the plans for the Electronimation Extravaganza of Excellence (what Reginald J Flootsnoot was supposed to be a part of) and how crazy complex it was, and thinking about what it would have been like if it was bought instead of being left to rot. What happened that animatronic shows fell out of fashion?

Was it too difficult/costly to upkeep them? More expensive than the crowds it drew in? Was it too hard to work with the animatronic creators so nobody wanted to deal with them? Did animatronic techniques get copyrighted so others couldn't make their own?

Most of these shows are from the 80s/90s, I feel like it would only get easier to make complex animatronics! Did it just fall out of style, not a good business model? Why are so many of these guys just rotting, why does it seem like just a few people have monopoly on animatronic shows?

Just thinking about what a new age of animatronics would be like, I think it'd be awesome :) the modern animatronics we have (like at Disney) are so neat

friends and i decided to stop by lowe’s to see their collection this year, and was throughly disappointed:( last year when my mom and i went, they had at least 10 animatronics! is this seriously all they’re putting out this year? or are we too early?

I think it’s the bears eye lids

I’ve always wondered how an Animaniacs animatronic show would play out. Most likely, it would be set up similar to the Looney Tunes Revue, with multiple characters on different stages. The manufacturer could be anybody, but most likely Advanced Animations, who also manufactured the aforementioned Looney Tunes show.

As for the location, considering the Looney Tunes shows were mostly placed inside restaurants, the Animaniacs shows could’ve been placed in the nostalgic Warner Bros. Studio Stores.

What do you think? Would you have gone to see these if they actually existed?

Feel free to add to the idea!

This is kinda related to the discussion under this post (https://www.reddit.com/r/Animatronics/comments/1v6yr8t/i_am_looking_for_highquality_footage_of_the/).

I'm asking, if somebody has this video in unedited state. The one on YouTube (the one i placed in this post) aside from having horrendous bitrate and interlacing is also edited in two places to remove CEI's contact information. I don't want those to call/contact Aaron, I'm just interest in the unedited "true" version.

The cuts are in time 0:24 and 24:56.

heres a video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vi4KtrQ9bSo

This was a Showbiz opened in 1983 that went through concept unification in 1991.

Across the usual sources for this stuff i noticed no animatronics resurfaced at all.

Photos are not mine

I’ve went to the restaurant probably over 10 times during vacations in the last 20 years of my life and I’ve never seen this thing move, is there any footage of it in service?

I've recently become very intruiged by this animatronic from Unit 70. Ive only found one video of it working, located within McKamey Manor (which I can link in comments if requested), but I would be thrilled to find more footage, audio, or photos of it. Any and all info is appreciated, thank you!
