Haven’t been a premium subscriber for a while. Had no idea the building was being sold. Breaks my heart to see it go but I’m glad this isn’t the end for Rockafire. Can’t wait to see the new shop and be a premium subscriber again so I can keep up with this kind of news. So glad I got to tour the place twice and see all those great pieces of Rockafire history. Wish you well, Aaron!
I'm glad they finally got to tour, I had wondered who got the last tour. It will always be a very special moment in our lives for each and all who got to go. 💟
Chris Robinson: keep doing what you're doing. And dreaming what you're dreaming. One day you will, like Mr. Fechter, achieve great things, and make the world a finer place.
That's wild. I miss the old days of Showbiz. I had all the dolls from that place and the record of the music. Loved the shows you put together. Thank you for being part of my childhood.
Amazing work, young man! I did the same thing as a kid. One weekend I took my pictures to our local Showbiz Pizza and the manager was so impressed he hung them behind the pizza counter for everyone to see for a month. It's good to see your family is very supportive, you have a natural affinity for engineering. It took me nearly 40 years to come back around to what I enjoy doing.
Very happy we got to do a tour with you back in 2018. We were visiting Orlando and added it in last second. Ended up being the highlight of our trip. Thank you Aaron for allowing so many people to be a part of your CEI journey
If you ever do tours again i will save up every single penny and every single quarter just to see all of the animatronics ever since I was four, I've had an interest in animatronics i just loved how you could make them preform any song and do anything like shake their head or play the drums. Thank you Aaron Fechter
2:30 their names are: Billy Bob (bass): boom Boom Bosco. Billy boy (drums) : buddy crash. Billy Bill (piano) : fingers dan. You already know Chet. And i think momma granbags was supposed to be called Beatrice in Bear country jubilee (¿Can you tell us if that's her original name?). Nice video by the way!
So glad I got a tour of my bucket list before the move and that we’ll get footage of the final tour. My only regret will be forgetting to get a picture with the bots, but maybe someday after the move I’ll be back. Hope the move goes well.
@@matlightfxproductions The shows weren’t actually built in the building Aaron has now anyway. They had a huge manufacturing building on Michigan Street in Orlando where all the shows were built. The building on Jefferson Street that Aaron has had for so long was the Creative Engineering headquarters and was where all the R&D work took place that helped improve the designs of the characters.
The show Aaron has is the bear country jubilee so the white bear is called chet fatakinz for some reason Aaron thinks he has the country bear jubilee so that's why he calls chet Billy Wilbur
That boy has insane talent!!! Hes the exact same age i was when i drew a lot! That implies he's probably been drawing since he was very little just like me! I absolutely love his design of the building blueprint for Showbiz Pizza!
Sad to see the place go after all of these wonderful years im going to miss it I still remember it like it was yesterday After all these years I am really sad to to see this building getting sold there is alot of history inside of it why is it being sold in the first place?
Hey, I was wondering what your opinion on Chuck E Cheese 2.0. They’ve been removing the animatronics and trashing them, including old Rockafire bots. I was wondering if you had an opinion on it, since my old location used to be the 100th showbiz pizza and it’s getting the bots removed in a few weeks. It’s honestly really sad, but I’m doing my best to rescue them. Hope your move goes well and long live the RAE
Well, my old location (Atlantic Blvd, Jacksonville FL) was the second Showbiz to ever open, oldest Showbiz/CEC operating in FL, oldest Showbiz operating overall, and first to get the RAE. It changed to Studio C Alpha in 2000, and gets 2.0 in October 2022.
It really is sad to see! I loved CEC as a kid, and that carried over into adulthood. I've only really known RAE for about a year now, but I love it so much! I wish I had known about it long enough to go on a tour of CEI. I'm hoping there will be a time when that can happen. Maybe someday!
I was watching the documentary video of CEI and I kept telling myself that I needed to join the premium member to watch all your new videos and someday might go on the tour there but sad that's the last tour for the lucky family to see inside
I can't belive your so chill about having basically invented email and then directly after email coming out. If I were you I probably would've like became a super villan or something
Gosh I waited too long it was a promise to me when I graduated from highschool this year I'd get to go to Orlando and visit cei, I should of known in 2015 that it would be too long of a wait
Is it just me or I think each band should have their own separate areas in the new warehouse Like a section for the Rock a fire explosion and one section for the WP5 ect ect
Omg, I literally thought you were just going to stop doing tours, but I misunderstood! And not too long ago, I told my mom about the tour, but yet unfortunatelywe the ticketsare a bit expensivefor us. Faz is a family favorite, and I can see why my mom likes him so much... They have a very similar sense of humor XD (I never experienced the rock a fire explosion in person sadly)
3:23 at least in the rockin billy wilbur and the bear cats, billy boy played the drums, and the only reason i remembered that is because of someone really liking his voice
I’m sad that y’all are moving out of CEI. But I can’t wait to see what the new warehouse will look like. Will you be open for tours anytime after you move in. Not saying I want to take a tour anytime but still. I want to know.
will you still be doing tours after the move, I was really looking forward to seeing them if I got a thing going when i go to orlando in late october, if so will the move be done by then?
Your moving? I just sold my house and was planning on moving down to Florida so I could be in your neck of the woods and now your leaving. Where am I going now?

they're so lucky, looks like they all had a great time! ☺ that boy's drawings were amazing, too! best of luck, Aaron! 💕
what a talented kid, he's going places!
That's wild. I miss the old days of Showbiz. I had all the dolls from that place and the record of the music. Loved the shows you put together. Thank you for being part of my childhood.
What a wonderful family. Looking forward to the showing of the rest of their tour.
Wow how cool! The Robinsons are very lucky to get a tour in before you move! Hoping for great things for you in the future 💖

Thank you so much for giving me an amazing tour back in 2020 despite covid. It is one of my best memories. You truly are my hero Aaron

I’m sad 😢. I’m happy for that wonderful family for receiving this opportunity
I'm happy you are doing well, and thank you for creating all that you have because it has given me joy for the years I have been a fan.
Can't wait to see everything in the new warehouse! Hope everything works out well.
That kid has a ton of talent. Also, those Looney Bird's pencils are the bomb! I hope all is well with the move and all the best to you.
2:30 their names are:
Billy Bob (bass): boom Boom Bosco.

You already know Chet.
And i think momma granbags was supposed to be called Beatrice in Bear country jubilee (¿Can you tell us if that's her original name?).
Nice video by the way!
Yes her name was Beatrice it says it on the mold
this video brings so much joy to my heart. i'm so excited to see the new museum!
So glad I got a tour of my bucket list before the move and that we’ll get footage of the final tour. My only regret will be forgetting to get a picture with the bots, but maybe someday after the move I’ll be back. Hope the move goes well.
Holy cow that kid is awesome artist!
Thanks for filming this. Certainly wasn't expecting you give one last tour.
8:26 this kids a realy good artist keep it up dude
What an amazing little artist he is!
So much interesting stuff to see. I would love to watch the band perform in person.
Glad I got to go before the move. I hope the new place is just as good as the old one!
it wont be the original building they where made sadly

I think it's Billy bill on piano and Billy Boy on drums - Also I didn't know that Billy Wilbur had another name! That's awesome!

@@matthewk8448Yes It the Bear Country Jubilee not the Hard luckbear or Country bear Jubilee
That boy has insane talent!!! Hes the exact same age i was when i drew a lot! That implies he's probably been drawing since he was very little just like me! I absolutely love his design of the building blueprint for Showbiz Pizza!
Wish I could've taken a tour. Nice of you to give one more though!
Wonderful :) thanks for sharing. Kids are too cute
That kid's got drawing talent for sure.
RIP Creative Engineering :(
Although I’m pretty curious about the new building
Can’t believe your moving! Good luck with the future place Arron! :)
At least they’ll still be in Florida so when the new shop open you can probably still take tours
You need to make that into a museum
Starts crying** cuz THERE SNOUTS ARE MELTINGGGGGG
I love watching the tour videos from different UA-camrs
I wish I was an 80s kid and visited a ShowBizPizza
Will you be doing tours again when you move into the new Warehouse?
I honestly hope that I can come down to your new place and get a tour at some point.
wow he is so good at art 👍
Where are you moving to ?
Hell yeah! Love the carpet bagger! Sad to see the tours go
Something’s have to come to a end … glad you documented the last tour!
Sad to see the place go after all of these wonderful years im going to miss it I still remember it like it was yesterday
After all these years

My nearest CEC (Indianapolis) got their bots removed not too long ago, so I've heard. Good luck my guy!
It really is sad to see! I loved CEC as a kid, and that carried over into adulthood. I've only really known RAE for about a year now, but I love it so much! I wish I had known about it long enough to go on a tour of CEI. I'm hoping there will be a time when that can happen. Maybe someday!

No way are you moving, I’ve heard rumors of you moving but now it is true.
I’m really glad I took the tour all those years ago, I was only 6-7 years old but I loved it! Wonder if you remember me Aaron!
Wait are you in one of his tour videos?
@@iluvpillowpetssmm Not in a video, but I took the tour a long time ago as a little kid.
ROCK AFIRE EXPLOSION WAS SOLD, TO DEPARTMENT 18!
Gosh I waited too long it was a promise to me when I graduated from highschool this year I'd get to go to Orlando and visit cei, I should of known in 2015 that it would be too long of a wait
I miss Circus Pizza!!! You’re a genius Aaron!!!
So your leaving the old building for a new one?
Is it just me or I think each band should have their own separate areas in the new warehouse
Like a section for the Rock a fire explosion and one section for the WP5 ect ect
I think he might do that as I think he mentioned making a sort of museum for his work
Aww the last tour ☹️
For only 10 years old that kid can sure draw
Man I’ve wanted a tour my entire life and now I can’t believe it’s just gonna be.. gone. :|
3:23 its Boom Boom Bosco on the bass, Buddy Crash on the durms and Fingers Dan on the piano and the female bear is Beatrice
Long live the RAE. I love your content!
i think Billy Boy was on drums and Billy Bill was on piano
Omg, I literally thought you were just going to stop doing tours, but I misunderstood! And not too long ago, I told my mom about the tour, but yet unfortunatelywe the ticketsare a bit expensivefor us. Faz is a family favorite, and I can see why my mom likes him so much...

Dang, I was really hoping to go soon, Will you still be in Orlando or near it?
It's still going to be in Florida, don't worry. As for where it will be, most likely still in the Orlando area
I'm sad I couldn't have seen any of this stuff . I wish I was born in 1974.
Where exactly are you moving to?
Is the new shop going to be in a new place in a different state or still in Florida?
3:23 at least in the rockin billy wilbur and the bear cats, billy boy played the drums, and the only reason i remembered that is because of someone really liking his voice
How old has been this building?
I. Remember my tour in February came. In with. My. Dad seemed like you guys got along
❤❤❤❤❤😊
I will love to tour your new place, so umm... Where will it be?

Will you be giving tours of the new shop?
Museum
It's sad 😔 but life must go on
Love your videos

Will you continue to provide tours at your new shop?
Museum
I’m sad that y’all are moving out of CEI. But I can’t wait to see what the new warehouse will look like. Will you be open for tours anytime after you move in. Not saying I want to take a tour anytime but still. I want to know.
