It had the original orange drum cover at one point as I have some photos of it when I was a kid. BTW, the statue is original to the store. The surround/fencing for the statue is from "the king" animitronic. The statue has been there since it opened.,
Awesome video Liam! I visited this location back in July, and it was my first 2-Stage I saw in person. Little fun facts that you might wanna know, This location used to have MASSIVE skytubes where are the toddler posters are. Now it’s just used for table space. Since this was a pizza time theater, they had a balcony stage, which became a C-Stage around the early 90s. The 2-Stage was later installed in 1995. I would assume the fact that it went through 3 stages would be the reason for its height. The Chuck E statue was actually from Tully Road! It was sent over around 1984.
Liam! It's TayJay again; I absolutely adore your style of documenting! Very informative and great narratives. I really would love to see this location someday. Hopefully they save it...
The reason there's doubles of those posters is because the first set you showed is the wall where the Skytubes used to be from 92'-2014(ish). The ones around the corner have been there for years.
There were two versions of the skytubes at this location. There was a much larger version that had a ball pit and almost went through the entire arcade area and the smaller one within the showroom. I remember this from from when I was little.
@mT_atvF5KCVHlk There was also a rare 80's octagonal ballpit here in the arcade at one point. Added in the mid-80's I believe when they got the C-Stage, and removed in the early 90's when the 2-stage went in.
@@mT_atvF5KCVHlk Before my time too, but some pre-phase 3 footage of this location can be found around the internet. Even rarer is stuff from it's PTT days, with the only clip I've seen coming from footage of the King in an obscure local punk rock video shot in '84 😂
@@alexandercrew2538 Thats cool! Its crazy that there is such little older footage of this store and it was 1 of CEC's top 5 locations in terms of gross sales.
Nice while in Canada, seeing the country's last 2-Stage animatronic show! 😀👍🏽 I remember as a kid seeing a yellow sweater with a star cap Chuck E. Cheese logo at the old Streamwood and Arlington Heights locations (before their relocation in 2014 and 2015 respectively), as well as Skokie back in the 2000s.
Also, I don’t know if you meant that the statue is one-of-a-kind *now*, or if it was a one of a kind. But Tacoma, Washington along with other locations used to have that style statue too.
Save northrodge!
northridge was saved though

Chuck's jaw was louder than the music.
This is quite the location, given its interesting features. And that’s why it’s my favorite Canada CEC.

Very interesting, thank you!
I love the layout of this store! When Chuck E’s mouth moves, it sounds like a boom box and a roller coaster chain mixed together.

Oh no I am so sorry about they are got kicked you out from flim but at least you got to visit see 2 stages with them & big ptt chuck statue
I saw this statue on my trip back in February, a short of it can be seen on my channel.
tbh prob the best 2 stage around
northridge rotting Huntington Beach closing and Annapolis…oh boy that stage is…..something
Huntington Beach ca is the oldest 2 stage. It was put in 1992
Will the location remove the statue when they become 2.0
The rumors currently point to that they won't however CEC is crazy sometimes.
I actually have a piece of paint that chipped off the wall of this store’s bathroom hallway
Also, it’s strange how they stopped you from filming, I filmed in the future at this store in January and they didn’t say a word
I hope this turns into a legacy store like northdrige, pineville etc.
You know what the road stage could’ve been better
"Save Northridge 2-Stage"
Good condition i think
Yeah I can see how an argument could be made for that
I think there good other than the clicking noises from chuck e
@@sauce-rt7fb Yes that is definitely the main issue.
@@LiamsAnimatronicExplorations I think his mouth makes that sound
@@Uhh438 Yes definitely his mouth
The wink heard round the world

Yes one of a kind now
If they give The Statue 2.0 Treatment ISTG
When I went here I got a ptt tocan
this one should be saved
Never knew
Save northrodge!
