That is great that he’s using doorbells operate his animatronics

The news is still covering the rockafire explosion?! That’s great!

Can’t wait to see Second Generation Duke Completely programed and performing on stage!

Nice to hear you're still working on Dook. Maybe we'll get a full Rockafire Explosion: The Second Generation sometime down the road?

If I may give some advice, I’m a drummer and a drumroll has many small “jumps” of the drumstick, like holding the drumstick loosely in your hand and letting it fall on the drum. I think modifying the section that holds the drumsticks so that the drumsticks can slightly shake when he hits the drum would help a lot with the drumroll and I don’t think it would cause trouble when programming other shows. TL;DR Making the hole a little bit bigger so that the drumsticks can wiggle will help loads with a drumroll.

I'm glad Aaron's been focusing on his work now because last time I checked he was worrying about some meanies or whatever but I'm glad he's working on his projects

really wish he got more recognition

Good for you man I’m glad it got on the news! Your work should be everywhere

Bruh, he's looking so cool. Cant wait to see how he turns out. Love the work you do!!!

I love Dook!! He is my favorite! So excited so see him on the news and that he is coming along perfectly!

Princess Haley: I wish MY BAND AND I was on the news but you always look up to rockafire instead of the moonrockers

WOO! That's what I'm talking about, great job.

I remember seeing him on my tour. He is amazing. Just amazing.

They always say that great ideas never die, and it's awesome seeing this dream become a reality! Keep up the awesome work Aaron!

Oh my goodness 😍 I'm happy for you and I know Dook will come out well ☺️

I’m so proud of you and that the word got the word out also people are listening to the amazing things you are doing. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Omg Aaron! I'm so excited for you and the new dook! Lol I didnt even think about how much time you probably had to work on him during all this staying inside, it slipped my mind. But I'm super excited about what's to come for you! We aren't stopping till the rockafire is back in the mainstream world making movies every other day!

this is great,and good luck on the project man!!!

I love seeing progress updates! Can't wait to see more work on the 2nd gen characters 😁

Very cool to see the kind of stuff Aaron is working on during quarantine.

aaron i am super happy for you, I know that this is your dream and I know that by the end of this dook will be done or be really close to being done, I believe in you. much love - Nicky Mclean

Glad to see you’re still working on him!

Yaaa! A Dook rebirth! Thanks for the upload Aaron!

This is really impressive keep up the good work I believe in you you inspired me to become a engineer I haven't reached the goal yet but you inspire me to reach it keep up the good work!!

Can’t wait for the second one to be on stage

I always love the band and creative Engineering I wish I could do it some day!!!

That's great he's finally getting to work on him! He's been wanting to finish him for years!!!!

Great video!!! You made the news!!!

How cool is that! I like that.

This is gonna be so awesome!

I was actually looking forward to seeing 2nd gen Dook on the premium channel then I was shone the door.

this is why I honestly love Aaron

You are awesome! I'm so enjoying watching Duke come together on the premium channel! Get premium if you don't already.. this is an adventure worth seeing :)

It's awesome to see this make the news.

That's awesome! Congratulations!

I’m proud of you Aaron

That’s a cool and awesome video Aaron

Have you thought about creating a program that makes you able to puppeteer it by just moving the arms and different limbs and then you can edit it in your regular programming software?

I'm glad that some of these animatronics are coming back.

That's awesome I hope Duke Will be happy with it

Yay!!! I'm so happy!!!

This video brings me happiness

Man I remember over a year I think idk watching the tour video and him saying this is the next generation drummer and him not being sure if he'll be able to work on it but now look

Really nice!!! :D Dooki is my fav too like mitzi and earl

As a drummer myself, I’ve honestly wanted nothing more than to be able to program Dook myself so I could play with him.

I can’t wait!!

I’m so happy for you :D

AYYYY! Glad news station are still aware that Showbiz Pizza still exists.

I cant wait for 2nd gen Dook. Maybe 2nd Gen Mitzi is next

amazing!

Awesome!

good job and good luck

Yeeeeeeeess, i'm very happy ✨

Aaron is so wonderful

Can't wait to see Second Generation Mitzi soon...

Oh yea second gen duke seems to be in the makeing and it is gonna be very interesting and awesome, just imagine an animatronic that can actually play the instrument it is sitting behinde with more fluent motions, and if my memory serves me right. There is also a Mitzi 2.0, as i first heard of your gen 2.0 animatronics from the video Carpetbadger put up where you showed him around your workshop, and let me just say it would be truely awesome to just see atleast 2 of these gen 2 rockafires be finished, with Mitzy moveing about more showing off her moves and duke drumming, so gen 2 duke has come a long way since his original creation Dingo i think with simple movements and the spring/lean action

Wow that’s cool!

This is awsome

awesome how it gets to be on the news

Im so happy that RAE is getting some more attention! Good luck on 2nd gen dook, aaron :)

I don't know how you'd wire it to an Apple 2, but you could use Full-Body Tracking Virtual Reality stuff for cutting down on programming time.

Yay therockafire is combing back

This is excellent news!

Good I'm so happy for you

Dook is the best charter

Hell yeah it’s his time

Holy Crap, When He Showed The Carpetbagger He Said That 2nd Gen Duke Would Be What He Wanted To Work On The Most

Second gen dook is going to be so cool along with second gen mitzi if arron decides to finish her

i cant wait

That's awesome, Aaron!

I LOVE THE ROCK AFIRE💥

Tbh, the name Rockafire Explosion sounds cool.

I just hope 2nd gen Mitzi will be worked on

Dude I would love to see that in show somewhere you should really see if we can gat a new showbiz pizza

I hope the rockafire explosion comes back in 2nd generation.

Wish I could've seen the full interview and gotten Aaron's thoughts!

Nice!

I love the rock a fire explosion 😃😃😃😃

Man, if you ever need an idea for a song, which I doubt, I think stuck in the middle with you would be peeerfect for Beach Bear

Would it ever be possible to create a digital RAE using digital “parts” that uses the same original programming? Have like a C(E)GI concert. Picture Dook I singing Spaceman on the moon. Or The Abbey Road Medley from a studio like on the old 45 sleeves. Or costume changes for Mitzi for Christmas.

I want to be like this man when i grow up 🥺👉👈

Hey Aaron when will your tours be available?

That look great! As I’m only 2 hours late.

Hey Get better soon and my boyfriend Daniel like your videos and I like them too.

Hi therockafire I love watching you! And the rock afire explosion! My favorite character is Dook I love him a lot. But I love all of them to:) I have a question what's the song called when Dook says parrrrrrty parrrrty

In order to make a drum roll you might need to loosen the hand from the drum sticks so it bounces more on the snare

After Duke gets his second gen version, maybe you could update the rest of the characters?

This is such a great thing to see! If I may ask, will 2nd gen Mitzi ever be worked on if Duke gets finished?

Good job for my b day I want to see the Rock a fire explosion in real life

I wanna see if he can rework on the 2nd Gen Mitzi.

I love him how long dose it take to make one robot and sute and how much dose it cose for one or 6

Nice.

Woah cool!

I really wonder if there would be a renaissance of 2nd generation rock-afire animatronics in the coming years after Chuck-E-Cheese's bankruptcy.

Can't wait to see duke more advance at maybe billybobs wonderland? Same with mitzi

I'm curious to know now, is Aaron still working on the animatronic? Just imagine Dook playing songs more accurately! It would be amazing!

Please let the new rocka fire stage behind the control board be your next project

Hey Aaron have you ever thought or considered making beach bear or billy Bob able to actually play the guitar or is that to much of a logistical challenge

I'm shocked a news company would care about animatronics from the 80s thats great!

YES!!!!!
