ye back when i was 8 i joined the cec fandom ad i remember seeing you chuck and the rest of your band in 2018 and yes i lost intrest in 2020 i did go to tallahassee fl during covid right before the bankruptsy and i filmed the animatronics i have never posted it i am now back in the fandom and will be for a little while longer

[@pawstudiosarchive1213]

I remember watching you when I was about 9. You Inspired me so much that on my 10th Birthday, I went to Walmart and bought an RC Car, Ping Pong Balls, Fabric, and some other things and made my own animatronic! It didn't turn out very well. But I still had A Lot of fun with it, and the Memories are strong! I wish you the best in life dude and thanks for making my childhood a lot better.

[@CECStages]

Thank you so much! It's my honor. That is so cool, I'm very happy I reached out to you like that. This is what it's all about, being able to inspire people. Thank you for sticking by! :)

I hope one day an animatronics / figure manufacturer realises your potential and gets you on board. Your engineering skills and puppet making ability is the closest anyone DIY has got to the likeness of the originals, it’s a sought after talent, and if the right pair of eyes see your videos, you could be a very successful man one day

[@CECStages]

Why hank you so much, I cannot put it into words, this is one of the most thoughtful comments I've ever received. Hopefully companies make the right choices and animatronics continue to be relevant, I am very interested in anything creative when it comes to cosmetics and set building.

[@Balootoyoutoo]

@@CECStages As long as there is reason to build and install animatronics in different venues, there will be companies about that will build them. I mean what I said in the last comment, and I’m sure there’s many others that watched your videos that can say the same. True talent, the next level is taking your current designs and figuring out how to translate them into a robust manufacturable version; you already have the know how to get the likenesses right and how to add the movement.. as much as I don’t like Garner Holt, if you read his story, he started off taking inspiration from Disney figures. His company now works for Disney creating a lot of the animatronics… Dreams can become reality, you just have to believe in yourself and be persistent. I hope we hear something about you

And I still go back from time to time to look at your old videos, and to see how you have grown up, and, how far you have come! Your animatronic CEC stage shown in this video, looks SO SO REAL!! As soon as this video came out, I was building my own homemade CEC and RAE bots, and as soon as the notification came up, I put down everything that I was doing, and clicked on this! Also, if it wasn't for you, I would not have been inspired to make animatronics, or, have as much love as I do for making, and watching the Pizzacam character! Ever since I first saw your tutorial video of making a Pizzacam, I have been making Pizzacam's all over the place, lol! Thank you for years of fun, and entertainment! But why did you stop posting again? You came back for a minute, than left again. Please post more dude!!

Holy heck your voice?!?! I watched you years ago, where did it all go??? I can't believe it's been over 5 years...! I remember when you posted your 100 subs special! I rediscovered this channel after watching a video ranking homemade animatronics, and saw your modern new ones. I was like "UHH EXCUSE ME?????" Even though they looked so different from the ones so many years ago I could instantly recognize your work. So I HAD to come back. I dont have my old account since I abandoned that, but it's amazing seeing where it all began for me and for you, and it's crazy to see you reuploading...I remember when you made a pizza cam tutorial. Looking back you were so friggin cute! I even made my own, but I didn't have a remote car, so I instead used a string based system to lift him up and down like he does now. Funny, huh? It's really cool to see you still around,even if it was for a video once and then a year later... Welp! Time to resubscribe! Even if you dont post again after this, I'm still gonna subscribe so i can remember a biiiig part of my childhood...you're the reason I'm so interested in making a personal real animatronic one day, or just with technology in general. Remember these good memories, and make better ones in the future! - Memin, watching since the beginning

[@CECStages]

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for all the kind words! It truly blows my mind to see people still around from all those years ago, I am honored to have entertained and inspired you. It means everything to me to see people still caring like this. The fact that you recognized my show seeing it for the first time from that video means you must know my work well, I'm glad you found yourself back here. I'm glad to hear peoples stories of making their own Pizzacams or animatronics in general because of me. It's funny because I still subscribe to dead channels I used to watch too out of respect. Chase whatever dream you may have, I am thrilled to have started you on this ambition of yours. Your comment just really made my day, thank you for sticking by after all these years. Time flies doesn't it? I wish you well.

[@electricdancer0652]

Been such a big fan of your replicas of the cyberamics they look so close to the real deal hopefully you'll find more space for them and make more replicas of the cec and showbiz characters like the ptt guest characters from the cabaret lounge stages I wanna see them perform more songs from the showtapes keeping staying strong with your channel dude.
