Wow! Blast from the past! These animatronics were always so creepy to me... One time I peeked under the curtain after a performance, and there they were standing there in the dark with big scary smiles on their faces. Creeped me out big time.

 Anyway, it's funny that people are restoring these guys and hacking them to perform new music. I thought GW and others would find this interesting.

 

 Here's the Youtobe profile of one of the actual creators of the bots:

yea I rember them at ChuckiCheese when I took my son when he was young. I have a Heads Up Harry from last years Holoween sale. He's 6 feet tall and still in the box and never been opened. I was waiting for the right time to hack him and make him do all sorts of things like what you see in the clip. When I get time I'll make this my next project unless I do my Alien Alive series.
Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it.

GWJax, To Hack and make mods on robots is a life style and comes natural and not by choice. If a robot has a screw to open it then it must be opened!
