Oh thank you for correcting me! I have Dyslexia so it’s hard for me to spell some words.

You are right

He's a weirdo

Now THAT's a question!

The characters did not have spherical bearings in the fabco cylinders yet. This would have been the batch of 04/82 .

@@therockafire hi Aaron 👋 ima fan!

@@therockafire time travel! 🤣

@@therockafire what are your thoughts on the circus playhouse band

Have your parents write me and I will give them questions to ask about the kit you are contemplating buying. for example, it uses Vixen to control the valves, but that is a timeline based programming system rather than real time programming system where you can program the movements with a button as the song plays. Also, I didn't see where they offer a mask. So, I'll help your parents know what they are getting if they write me.

Yes! Just me and my friends who help me. Don't forget I have lots of friends helping me do things now and that's how I have such a large catalog of merchandise I am producing for you all. But they just aren't "every day" employees. So, I get to go to the beach for weeks at a time when i get all your orders caught up and catch a break between scheduled tours.

@@therockafire I hope Creative Engineering will rise up again one day.

I agree. I sadly got to never see the Rockafire in person, but unlike some of the younger kids, I didn’t come here because of FNaF. I came here because I always loved animatronics. It’s really a shame that Showbiz Pizza and the Rockafire went downhill, I would of enjoyed see them.

And some have passed

Yes the show tape had the yogi bear theme and chats between the characters

Yes, he voiced Beach Bear.

THE MAN BEHIND THE SLAUGHTER

When did you get the idea of it?

Lucas Robinson fixed, thanks for your correction...

they sold to chuck e cheese's though

@Zathena Solidor. No ShowBiz was the one that actually bought out Chuck E. Cheese’s around ‘84 when they went bankrupt. They were forced to do so by a court ruling since Bob Brock, the founder of ShowBiz Pizza had breached his original contract with PTT by creating his own competing company instead of opening 100 Chuck E. Cheese stores like he had promised. Anyways, ShowBiz was scrambling to stay afloat due to the great video game crash of the mid 80’s. In an attempt to save any money they could, the ShowBiz Corporate higher ups decided to try and find a way to dump using Creative Engineering’s Rock-afire characters since they didn't want to pay to license the character rights/show tape fees/etc for using the Rock-afire. They tried to essentially just straight up take the characters from Aaron at one point around 85-86 by refusing to pay anymore and just making and sending out cringey bootlegged tapes with people doing bad impressions of the characters and notoriously awful programming, meanwhile refusing to even offer a dime to CEI for the rights. So CEI took them to court and won the case against ShowBiz ensuring CEI would retain the character rights in-turn making Corp have to bring back the old voice actors around the late 80’s (when they started producing the cyberstar tapes.) At that point since ShowBiz Corp still didn't want to pay for using them but still needed animatronic shows so they started planning to retrofit the characters in all the stores. A deal was eventually struck up where Corp would have to remove all traces of the Rock-afire characters from their stores by replacing them with another band if they wanted to have full rights to make their own shows. Various retrofit concepts were drawn up for possible new character shows but they ultimately decided on using the Chuck E. Cheese characters on the stages since they already owned the rights and it would have more brand recognition than designing another set of characters. Not to mention it would save money since they could use the same audio on both shows rather than having to record shows for 2 separate restaurants (They were running both SPP and PTT at this point). So in the early 90’s (well technically late 89’ up through the early 90’s) ShowBiz put their plan in effect and started replacing their Rock-afire’s with the CEC 3-stage retrofit, cut ties with Creative Engineering, and fully rebranded their stores under the Chuck E. Cheese’s name. Meanwhile throughout the 90’s CEI started selling their leftover Rock-afire shows to other Family Entertainment Centers while eventually trying to develop new shows such as the mijins hoping to usher in a new era animatronics. Despite their best efforts to get another big contract they unfortunately just never quite got the bite they needed to keep the company going like it had the decade prior. Or at least that's the story I'm aware of. I'm not sure of how accurate everything is as I wasn't there to see it in person since I wasn't even born yet at the time. Maybe Aaron can verify how close I got? P. S. Sorry this comment’s so long and wordy but I felt like putting it out there for anyone who might want to learn more about how it all happened.

Not exactly correct, but lots of "close" facts. Maybe I'll go over this subject at the beginning of a video soon.

therockafire were you replying to me or someone else?

Raiburu fumetsu hey can you do me a favor?
