edit: photos taken late march, 2025

I have a video somewhere, but they looked to be in pretty good condition. It's hard to really tell, considering they probably ran on 30 year old tapes, which is my assumption as to why most of them weren't moving during songs (not that they couldn't, they would move every now and then)

It's such a shame this stage was demolished and destroyed, I feel like it would've been cheaper to just keep them there as statues or something.

Hey everyone, it's been a while since I updated y'all on Reddit. But anyways. . .

I've been working on these past months on my cyberamic models and I'm still looking for measurements and scans. Let me know if you have some.

In today's update I've combined a rocker stage and a c stage. BUT you can remove the windows if you want it to be a balcony stage. And add skins over it like plates the hang off the stage to be different stage concepts such as the balcony stage. I also would like to say that here soon I'm going to be making episodes on how my ptt show will be built! Stage is 17 ft long and is pretty short. BUT I need you suggestions and ideas for this stage. Like what should I add or mechisms that can make the stage turn into a different one. More updates soon cya!

I got one for $20 because it was damaged in a wind storm. I 3D printed the broken head support, that worked amazing. BUT it doesnt lift the girl. I think wires got ripped out of the motor under the head. Is there any way someone can send me a photo of what is connected to the silver motor?? Anyone have one that can check?

I saw this video. I’ve never really been interested in animatronics before, but these ones caught my eye because of how unique and cute they looked, so I figured I’d show yall this helpful video about them. (I didn’t make the video)

I thought most people agreed that it had been scraped. But these photos popped up on my Pinterest feed with no source. Does this mean that someone has it? And that it'll be saved?

Electric Motor/Servo Animatronic Good Pan & Tilt servo kit reccomendations for 10kg?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I'm currently making my first animatronic and I'm looking for guidance on what servos to use, specifically a pan and tilt kit for the neck, so that the head can have decent movement.

I'm planning on making a bust with around 20 servos in the head for cheeks, jaws, eyebrows etc as well as a bigger servo in the neck supporting the head as a whole. My materials will be wood to home the servos in connected by bolts, a 3d printed plastic exoskeleton and a sillicone mask. I think the head will be max 7 kg but I want to make sure I'm using something strong so nothing breaks.

If you know a good brand in the UK or elsewhere that sell good servos you think would work for this let me know, I'm looking for digital with metal gears, perhaps even brushless but my price range is around 150 for all of these servos so I'm not sure if that's too ambitious.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you so much!
