Posting here since this is sort of related to CAX.
For the past year my friends and I have been restoring an animatronic band called Electric Mouse Orchestra. We bought them at work off Ebay 10 years ago and they sat in the hallway rotting away. They gave them to me and we replaced all their tubing and created control boards to animate them. We have them set up to animate to any song we choose. Haven't done any cosmetic work yet as their faces are pretty bad.
We were trying to get them ready to bring to CAX this year but not sure if they will be ready. We'll have a separate room with 80's games and recreate that pizza theater vibe. Here's our first test. Keyboard player needs a few tweaks before we add him in. They have costumes and look pretty cool live. There are 2 more characters that are not in the video below.
