These are amazing animatronics for 1978! The Wolfman is pretty cool, though I like Rolfe DeWolfe better. Your animatronics overall are REALLY impressive. When I showed a friend of mine a video of your Rockafire Explosion setup, the movements were so lifelike she thought at first they were people in costumes!
My dad was a HUGE admirer of your work, he used to show me videos of animatronics singing and I even had a Billy Bob plushie that was made by my grandma! ❤
This is amazing! Being only 10. I love animatronics and I wanna make my own animatronic band! Thank you for the wolf pack 5, hard luck bears, rockafire explosion but mostly, thank you for inspiring me 🙂
This is very cool i like the consept of seeing what the rock-afire could of been and its cool to see the evolution of theese characters and how they changed very cool video❤
Hey, Aaron! Glad to see you're still alive & kickin'! It's been just over 10 years ago when we met in Orlando, toured your former facility, and me getting pics with Fatz & the RAE!
I honestly kinda wish I was able to go to a showbiz, but alas, I was unable to exist in time. Kinda cool to see how they evolved from these stiff moving machines, to having incredibly fluid movements!
I dont have my own money yet, but when i do, and have the ability to, i plan to pay for the subscription. I absolutely adore your work and animatronic restruant mascots in general. Itll take a while, but if/when im able to, im going to be STOKED to see what ive been missing out on :D
This was absolutely wonderful! Loved seeing the Wolfpack 5 once again on video! Loved seeing queenie,thought it sucks we may never see minnie again. Also Aaron,do you think it is possible for you to cover the newest beatles single: "Now and Then"with the Rock-Afire if possible ? It came out on Nov 3.2023,so it would be cool if you were able to do one last beatles cover!
@therockafire, it is so cool seeing this animatronics in action, i watched the video whwre yoy brought them up from the basement and i also wondered what they looked like animated
We once had a wolf pack 5, in Brazil, it was a place called play center, but since Playcenter does not longer exist, no one knows what happened to the animatronics
I love the original wolfpack 5. the characters are all very charming and they come from diverse places. i defintely gotta get the premium subscription sooner rather than later. maybe someday ill be able to get my hands on these guys, or even make my own! seems like an interesting challenge i could put myself up to.
I love you Aaron, Thanks for still posting some footage on your youtube channel, I love that show one of your best in my opinion, Have you heard that this show was just recovered from Japan
I Would LOVE it if you could reunite with some of your old staff from the 1970s to 1990s and build more of this show and some of your past shows. animatronics may be an obsolete form of technology and may scare some people due to rotting animatronics and five nights from Freddy's, but they still hold potential merit and fascination today, if anything RUclips made that happen along with creators and fellow fans like you out there. Thank You for keeping the magic alive. And for the record, I sleep with dolls, watch TV puppet shows by the likes of Jim Henson and Sid and Marty Krofft, Want to become a professional clown in the circus and I'm a life-long Disney And Chuck e. Cheese/ Rock-afire fan. So there is NO WAY animatronics would scare me, Only stinging, biting insects and needles would do that. And The tyrannical worldly rule of an evil dictator and the abolishment of the free world as we know it. doesn't get much more scary than that. Am I Right???
Was there only one Queenie? I know she was replaced with Mini, and WP5 content seems rare in general, but I've only found three videos that briefly show her- including this one.
Hey Aaron what are the chances you could make it to Billy Bob's wonderland next year for a little convention? I'd love to meet you and what better place?
Hi Aaron, I was curious as to if there’s a way to contact you by chance? I’ve been interested in your work for a long time and have been saving for over 10 years. Do you still have a Dook within your collection that you’re willing to part with? If so, could I possibly contact you for more information? I’m looking for working or non working as it would be an honor to own any animatronic by you!! Unrelated but Dingo has always been such a huge comfort to me, he’s such an interesting little guy and it’s great to get to see this footage of him out here. Thank you for your time and have an amazing day!!❤
Tengo una idea porque no haces una pizzería con algunos shows que tengas en el almacén y el dinero vende cosas viejas del almazan que no sirvan para las mesas cocina y espacio y después ganarias mucho dinero por los fans
I LOVE THIS!! I wish my country could have this but people in the uk tend to be destructive especially in certain areas whixh is so unfortunate because we miss out on so much, ive been obsessed with the animatronics from chucky cheese, rockafire explosion and the rest of the gangs i watch every single video on your channnels 😅😂 (btw when i say uk tends to be destructive im not pointing it at anyone i mean the minority tend to make a major impact and its really unfortunate 😢 Edit: but dude your a legend youve made a big impact on my life and ive really got into animatronics and robotics and want to make ones of my own one day😂❤❤
Hey Aaron, may I have your permission to use the rock afire explosion's cover of the beatles birthday song for a video? I think it's a good thing to get permission from the owner so that I don't get in trouble with copyright.
Yes you can do that. If you want more formal permission than a comment response, please write me at aaron@starsof.com and I'll send you a note allowing this.

Keep doing what you do Aaron, don’t let the negative nancies stop you from continuing to inspire people every day.
I love the rock afire explosion so much
Aaron I have to say it was probably amazing for people to see such a complex show running in 1978
Arron
when do you think you would start doing tours again? (or at all)
Man, little queenie, is fantastic 👌 one of my favorite characters in the wolf pack5 .
These are amazing animatronics for 1978! The Wolfman is pretty cool, though I like Rolfe DeWolfe better.
Your animatronics overall are REALLY impressive. When I showed a friend of mine a video of your Rockafire Explosion setup, the movements were so lifelike she thought at first they were people in costumes!
My dad was a HUGE admirer of your work, he used to show me videos of animatronics singing and I even had a Billy Bob plushie that was made by my grandma! ❤
Seeing Queenie in that outfit singing dragstrip is literally the best thing ever
I love Queenie so much
Aaron you are one of the most impactful people on my life! I always will cherish you and your creations!
It's so cool to be able to see Little Queenie in action!
We. Need. More. Queenie. Videos. Please. 😂❤
Wow, that Wolfman! 💙💜💙
A voice so totally full of warmth and charm! What a groovy guy.
These things truly looked incredible, especially lil queenie, truly fantastic work by 1978 standards
It’s great to see you are still in great shape after all these years. Keep up the good work, Aaron!
I cant imagine how wild (as in cool) it would have been to see these animatronics for the first time. Like, actually.
Hey Aaron, I've been a longtime admirer of your amazing creations and hope to one day be as creative and inspirational as you
Holy crap! They looked great back in the day. Sad that they doesn't look like this now... anyway this is great! Thanks for putting this up Aaron!
This is amazing! Being only 10. I love animatronics and I wanna make my own animatronic band! Thank you for the wolf pack 5, hard luck bears, rockafire explosion but mostly, thank you for inspiring me 🙂
This is really nice, a lot of people may take this and call it “scary” but I find it entertaining, and fascinating.
This is very cool i like the consept of seeing what the rock-afire could of been and its cool to see the evolution of theese characters and how they changed very cool video❤
These Animatronics are super cool! I really wish that the creative engineering museum becomes a real thing so we call all see them in real life!
This is incredible, thank you for sharing this with the world!
Couldn’t have said it better myself
Hey, Aaron! Glad to see you're still alive & kickin'! It's been just over 10 years ago when we met in Orlando, toured your former facility, and me getting pics with Fatz & the RAE!
Awesome footage!😊
This is so cool! Really glad you have all this history safe.
Aaron, thank you so much this was posted at the perfect time for I am doing school project on this topic
The Wolfpack five characters look like people in costumes because they move so smoothly😮
I love the wolf pack 5! I want to see more of dingo, he’s my favorite character! :D
Wow!!! Thanks for sharing, what a treasure! ❤
I cant help but smile! This absolutely made my day. Your animatronics are such an engineering masterpiece! Thank you truly for all you do Aaron😊
I really love this!! Thank you Aaron 😊
So creative and artistic!!! So neat to see this. Brilliant!!! You and your team, were a head of its time!!!
As someone from gen-z I can’t imagine how you pulled this off without modern computers
I honestly kinda wish I was able to go to a showbiz, but alas, I was unable to exist in time. Kinda cool to see how they evolved from these stiff moving machines, to having incredibly fluid movements!

Curious. Did you have one or something? (:
@therockafire, it is so cool seeing this animatronics in action, i watched the video whwre yoy brought them up from the basement and i also wondered what they looked like animated
Truly a wonder to see
We once had a wolf pack 5, in Brazil, it was a place called play center, but since Playcenter does not longer exist, no one knows what happened to the animatronics
I think you meant the hard luck bears not wolf pack 5.
I love the rae and all but the wolf pack 5 is an under rated gem of the world
Aaron you have really inspired me to make my own animatronic named dug the dog and I’m making him now
i love wolf pack 5 especially wolfman their song is so good!
What I would give for a Little Queenie plushie lol, especially in that outfit though! She really is a foxy lady! 💖
They look so cool! Crazy how much they evolved, into The Rock Afire Explosion!
NEW VIDEO??? WOOHOOO!!!!!!!!
I love the original wolfpack 5. the characters are all very charming and they come from diverse places. i defintely gotta get the premium subscription sooner rather than later. maybe someday ill be able to get my hands on these guys, or even make my own! seems like an interesting challenge i could put myself up to.
Queeny and mini sing. The same song 😧👍
Great to see more footage of the fabulous WP5 in action
The wolf pack 5 is my third favourite animatronic band
I love you Aaron, Thanks for still posting some footage on your youtube channel, I love that show one of your best in my opinion, Have you heard that this show was just recovered from Japan
If you don’t mind,can you give us some bear country jubilee footage
Omg they look so full of life !
YOUR A LEGEND!!!
I love the wolf pack five, surprised to see queenie in this since the only other footage ive seen has mitzi.
I Would LOVE it if you could reunite with some of your old staff from the 1970s to 1990s and build more of this show and some of your past shows. animatronics may be an obsolete form of technology and may scare some people due to rotting animatronics and five nights from Freddy's, but they still hold potential merit and fascination today, if anything RUclips made that happen along with creators and fellow fans like you out there.

Love seeing this, saw the Rock-Afire Explosion from 1984-2000 at Showbiz Pizza Place at 7493 S. Lindbergh Blvd. Saint Louis ,Missouri.
