Pre-Order Thread

I am unfamiliar with that one. In Central IL we had a rival operation called “Showbiz Pizza” but Mr. Cheese acquired all of them and switched over to Chuck E Cheese’s

Fun fact: the “E” in Chuck E. Cheese stands for “Entertainment” so the Rat’s full name is: Charles Entertainment Cheese.

Went to the Showbiz in Decatur quite a bit as a youngin
 
Ikebe Shakedown

Pink Limited 1500

Love these guys

The joys of not having children.

Pros: disposable income and the ability to ride my scooter to a weekday matinee any time The mood strikes me.

Cons: Never having a reason to go to Chuck E Cheese and play skeeball; dying alone.

Post-script: we all die alone

Both of these posts are connected for me. The first time that I ever knowingly heard Ikebe Shakedown, I caught it on video, because my son started dancing. We were walking by a sushi joint at the mall and they had it blasting outside. I later used this clip to search the audio and find out who it was.

The band from Showbiz Pizza was called Rock A Fire Explosion. I watched a short doc once about a guy who acquired the full set up with all of the animatronic characters from the band. He was able to program them to perform any songs that he wanted.

I was looking for it, but came across this first. It has to be the same dude

Well, those dance moves sold me. I'm in for IS :)
 

Don’t know if anyone put this. Solange pre order on Fat Beats. Sure it’ll be up elsewhere. Doesn’t say exclusive nor limited.

Edit: yup on amazon too

God everytime I see one of these videos the memories of The Goofy Movie come flooding back.
 
When I see the Showbiz Pizza Bear I always think of Red Letter Media.

That bear is named Billy Bob Brockali and someone actually made a vinyl figure of him with interchangeable heads, where one of them exposes the animatronics.

It's technically a vinyl pre-order

I would buy the shit out of this if it was under $20.
