I didn't know what a Mold-A-Rama was until I watched your channel. Now I'm raising awareness in my own community lol. We need to get them to make a Carpetbagger mold! It'll be the first step to getting your own theme park! 🙂
Same
OMG YES!!
I would buy a Carpetbagger from the Mold-o-rama!
Raising awareness in my own community. Love that dude. God bless the d@mn dirty carpetbagger
I agree ☝️
I loved the"Viola" incident-many of our words come from the French language-thanks to Jen for getting you on board-cheers!
Jacob I have been watching you for about 5 years now almost every episode. Seeing your new videos you create almost daily it’s a real treat to see.
I love what you do and the content you keep giving to your viewers. Keep up the good work and keeping enjoying what your doing. I hope you see this message.
Praying for you man.
Jacob should do the show without Jenn!!!
@@filipohman7277 Why?
Viola 😂. Oh, the many memories I have of this museum ❤️💕
I'm glad you and Jenny Penny is in Chicago at the Mold-A-Rama exhibit I asked Jenny to tell you about this exhibit
I think the Museum was trying to figure out how to get Jacob and Jen to visit. The Mold-a-rama exhibit entered everyone's minds. Especially Viola's mind. And voila, which is French for "presto chango," it was there.
When I saw this exhibit was coming, I INSTANTLY thought of you! I'm glad you got to showcase it!
I grew up poor in Chicago, but fortunately the Museum of Science and Industry, Field Museum, Art Institute, and Lincoln Park Zoo all had free admission in the 70's, so our mom took us to one of those places nearly every weekend. The Mold-a-Rama was a cheap and frequent souvenir. Totally agreed on the nostalgia of the smell. And RIP the Circus exhibit.
I have a friend who has a mold a Rama in his private arcade. I had never seen one. I still have the figure it made. Been ten years.
Thanks for explaining Viola to him! What the heck your supposed to be a world traveler! Lol
😆😆😆
viola is a fretted/string cello like instrument. it would actually make a cool mold
Wow, I grew up with the Fairy Castle. Thank you for getting it on film!
I was at that museum in the summer of 1971. I was 7 or 8. Made a big impression on me and I can still remember a lot of it. I’ve never been back to Chicago other than for transferring flights and I want to go back. I’m sure there alphabet been so many changes at that place !
I love Mold a Rama figures I have a small collection of them. They are a white Stegosaurus from the Field Museum, a red T-rex also from the Field Museum, a light blue Triceratops also from the Field Museum, and a rare red Apatosaurus from the Brookfield Zoo.
Voila! Is actually pronounced Vwahlah. It is a french word, thus the strange pronunciation. Many Americans think it is Wahlah, but the V at the beginning is spoken. (I can see how it could also be mistaken for Viola by switching the inner vowels)
Thank you! 💖🤗💖🤗
You are not the only one who loves Mold - A - Rama's!!! They are great souvenirs from our childhood days of the 1960's to 1970's. It's great you can still get them albeit for a much larger price!!!! Another great souvenir is the flattened penny with the attractions on them for .51cents, .50 for the souvenir n 1 cent to be the souvenir.!!! I have some from my last vacation at Mackinac Island, n I love them as well!!! Attaboy, Carpetbagger!!!
I think it's so totally cool that you made ALL the Mold A Rama's today at the museum!;! Wonderful video!!! Attaboy, Jacob n Jen!!!!
I'll be 39 years old tomorrow and I'll never forget the childhood memory of the smell of the Mold-A-Rama machine at the Memphis Zoo!
I'll be 44 tomorrow! Happy Birthday 🥳🎉
Happy birthday to you both
I remember getting those molds from Brookfield Zoo and Field Museum.they we're a cheap little souvenir.Thanks for sharing Jacob
I know you enjoyed this and we are happy for you. This was wonderful and unique.
I'm so glad you were able to catch this exhibit!
Yes, I can still remember that smell. They had them at the Florida Turnpike service plazas.
Viola/Voila was hilarious😂 Thank you Jenny😹😋
The baby chicks n mice were too cute!!!
I love that comment from Jacob about the newly hatched baby chick " He's gonna have to take a rest n reassess the situation!" Attaboy, Jacob!!!
In the 1990’s when I was a kid, my parents and I visited this museum a couple times with relatives. I’m totally blind, and most of the exhibits were visual, so my favorite part was always the Mold-a-Rama in the basement. I loved putting in a few coins and taking home a warm souvenir that I could feel. The train and space shuttle molds were neat, but Lincoln’s head was my favorite. My mom described how each mold was made as it journeyed through the machine. I always thought the hot plastic smelled a bit like melting crayons.
I’d love to use one of these machines again sometime.
PS: Look up the Voiceover screen reader if you want to know how I can type these comments, or do anything on the iPhone, really.
I can’t believe you and apparently many others love Mold-a-Ramas as much as I do. This video made my day!!
Hey carpetbagger got a fact for you about the breadfruit. It's a well known fruit in the south pacific, it's starchy so it tastes alot like a potato but when it's fully ripe it tastes sweeter because the starch breaks down into sugar. Wouldn't reccomend eating raw always cook it.
Fried is really good!
that was a fun video of the exhibit, thanks Jacob and Jen for sharing your fun experience
They had these at the Milwaukee zoo for different animal exhibits loved it
I was at this museum a while ago and saw a mold a rama. I would have checked it when I left, but didn't see it again. Also didn't know there was an exhibit
The museum looks really cool! Jacob was really fun to watch! He loves the Mold-a-matic!!! Enjoyed this episode as always!
So cool! The last mold I got was from Lion Country Safari a long long time ago….wish I still had it but it got lost many moves ago.
This is so wonderfully Carpetbaggery! LOVE IT!!!
I remember going to the central Florida zoo as a kid and getting an elephant mold-a-rama. Yes the smells and the sights take me back. By the way you don't know what breadfruit is?!, Really?.... Well neither do I so we're in the same boat lol :-)
In Utah I think you would also enjoy Thanksgiving Point. It has some museums there. I'm certain you would enjoy. Plus other things. A great place to visit.
The Fairy Castle was cool and magical. I LOVE it!.
Jacob and his confusion with the word Voila is absolutely hilarious! I used to think Rafters was Raptors!
I love the area with the tesla coil on the ceiling. That and the mirror maze that was there
Had such a blast !!! Thanks Jacob & Jenn.✌️❤️
The nostalgic factor hit an all time high with me. I'm from Chicago and seeing a video from where I live is beyond fascinating to me. Seeing these mild o ramas were flat out awesome. Definitely reminded me of my 5th grade field trip and getting molds of my own growing up
The look on her face when she asked "Do you always say Voila?" 😂
Totally get that nostalgic smell memory
Fireworks in winter with snow is the best.
Voilà! It means That's it! In French. The Canadian Centennial piece, the Mountie and an Eiffel tower where available during Expo 67 in Montreal. I never saw these machines anywhere else in Canada.
This brings back SO many memories for this NW Indiana girl. Field Trips to the museum of science and industry is where I learned to love mold a ramas.
So glad you can add to your collection! What a great exhibit!!!
One other I need to make mention of. I really think you would enjoy the David J West Gallery. Has top notch artwork and pottery. Awesome place.
Awesome to see you made it to the Mold-A-Rama Exhibit! Thanks CB
I love the museums in Chicago. I'm from the Detroit area and Chicago is very close.
They got these in the Henry Ford Museum and got specific molds to the museum.
@@1000motorman I have seen them in the Henry Ford and growing up I saw them at Greenfield Village as well.
@@susanboatman7913 They must only a few in the village because I don't remember seeing them unless they put them in since 2003 when I went last.
@@1000motorman I haven't been to the Village in a long time. When I was growing up they did have them.
@@susanboatman7913 The only ones I've seen were all in the museum so they must of moved them over at some point.
Carpetbagger’s “Hey you All Carpetbagger here” intro cures cancer instantly!
I've been waiting for this one. I saw so many of the Mold O Rama's I had when I was a kid. I won't list them all, but there was a lot. The only one I still have is the Brookfield zoo gorilla, who I believe is Bushman. Always good to see you at my favorite hometown museum.
I’d bet that arena is a simpler model of the Astrodome. Getting these was a highlight of visiting my now-passed aunt & uncle in the Chicago suburbs.
Did you ever get to Battle Creek in your youth? The roasting corn at the Kellogg factory is the ultra-nostalgic smell for me.
I thought it was the LA Forum also.
OMG I just Love Jenn!!! I was thinking what in the heck is Jacob saying Viola and Jenn had me laughing so hard when she corrected you. Her face said it all!!
“Stay close to the candles, the staircase can be treacherous!” 😅
We went the 1st week the Mold-A-Rama exhibit opened. Loved it. You missed 2 molds the chicago skyline and the U505 sub.
I went to that museum when I was 5 (1977) I only remember the plane and the Mold-A-Rama machines. I got Abraham Lincoln and the train. I still remember the smell too!
If anyone wants to get their hands on the Mickey or Pluto molds, they are still used to this day at a suburb in Illinois, called Volo. Thier is an auto museum named after the suburb and they are currently using green plastic for them, I bought them last year. They also had a Goofy mold, but it broke down in 2019 and is currently being reparied.
Cool! Yes, a Carpetbagger mold would be awesome. I remember getting a Triceratops one as a kid when a traveling life sized dinosaur exhibit came to town back in the 60's.....or was it a Stegosaurus? I'd love to get one of the robot. That ones is super neat.
Man the memories of getting a Mold a Rama at the Field Museum or MOSAI. That was my souvenir nothing better even from the gift shop!
Been watching carpetbagger for years now love coming back to a good new video
VIOLA ! now I'm a big fan of Jen for bringing up that funny bit of cheering viola , lol
Loved your new collection. Really an interesting museum to visit.
Loved this video Jacob. And Jen, viola. Your to funny lol.
I have two molds from the Henry Ford museum, Rosa Park’s bus and Henry Ford. Pretty cool stuff!
You know I remember as a kid in Canada's wonderland they had a mold a Rama but it was already falling apart in the late '90s early 2000s. They moved it from another park that was only in the company before cedar Fair owns it. It was just interesting to seeing this machine that is already been through a lot as a kid. It showed it the mold I remember it had. I believe it was like a Flintstones one I think I don't know it's going back to like the '90s when I was a kid
I love these machines. Got my first one in the 60 on vacation in Florida. Lots of fun.😊
I loved those things, it was the highlight of the Christmas season when I was a kid! We'd go to Children's Wonderland and see all the beautiful Christmas decorations and miniature villages and then get all the Molds from those machines! My favorite was Rudolph! And the Santa! I need need need buy think they always had Mickey mouse, and Donald duck, Alsobi believe Peter Pan and Tinkerbell too!!
The machines were actually invented in the Chicago area.
The first of these machines I ever saw was at MSI Chicago -- like that picture in the exhibit, the bust of Abraham Lincoln machine was there for decades.
The original price for a Lincoln bust was 10c.
There remains a Mold A Rama in Seattle at the Space Needle.
I remember when they had the machine at the Fairy Castle --- I tried to get one there, but the mold just didn't work well (as mentioned) the one I got came out with many holes and I didn't keep it.
Ive been to disney and kings island once, kennywood a few times, and I basically lived at cedar point and geauga lake my teen years. How have I never seen one of these machines??? Plenty of penny presses everywhere though
Thank you Jen for correcting Jacob on the correct pronunciation of VOILA!!!
I think that one mold Arama that you pointed out is the Astrodome in Texas. I think I’m not too sure, but it looks like it.🤠
Jenn is too funny! Love Chicago! Thanks Jacob and Jenn!
i sadly can't go at all often because of travel to there (need someone to drive me) and when to go for free
Love the moldomatics, safe Journeys my friends.
Glad to see you back on the road again Jacob!
I remember those! My parents and i went to the new york worlds fair in 1965. I got my dinosaur at the Sinclair exhibit, it was the green brontosauraus.I'm 62,and yes the smell still comes to mind. The Seattle one, is interesting except where are all the tiny homeless people?
this is my fav museum in Illinois... i did do a mold a rama of a plane at that museum but sadly it fell apart
lol voila! ty jenny for teasing him :D hehe (pretty sure its french for something). ps. keep featuring jenn!
That looks like a fun U-see-'em! TY sir. 🐣🎄🚂🦾🎅🚅⛵🧚
You guys should go to Greenfield Village. During the month of December they decorate the Village for Christmas to look like a town in the early 20th Century
That space robot was so cute. Wow, there were a bunch of moldaramas.
If abstract sculpture is your thing, there the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art in Salt Lake City.
I think you would really enjoy it.
I'd like to see your thoughts on what you think some of the pieces resemble.
I’ve been having to play catch-up and it’s been a while. The new intro animation is awesome and I’m so happy you still kept the OG banjo music. Love it. 👍
I still have a train mold from the train museum in Griffith park that I got in the 70s
Love the Mold-A-Rama machines and yes everyone remembers the smell! I remember getting my very first one which was the steam locomotive at the Science and Industry Museum back in 1980 or 81 when I was 4 or 5 going back with my grandparents to visit family in Rockford and Chicago. The other one I distinctly remember was the koala from the Brookfield Zoo. Had some others as well on trips back over the years. Awesome video to see the machines still in action!
What a cool place! Awesome Mold-A-Ramas!
Hey Jacob. So the Sharky mold was from Underwater Adventures at the Mall of America here in Minnesota. It was their mascot. The aquarium is still there but under a different name and ownership. I believe the Sharky mold is one of the rarest molds out there now. Thankfully, I have one. :) from one MAR collector to another, loving your videos, and I knew it was just a matter of time before you went to this exhibit!
The Mold a Rama was always the highlight of Brookfield zoo near Chicago. I still have a white polar bear, a blue dolphin, a green crocodile, and a red giraffe in a box somewhere
I loved going there with my grandma as a kid and getting one. They always smelt good, lol. So had to get one when I was on Universal this past September
So awesome! Love the chicks and all the unique molds 🖤 I had unique gum ball machines growing up 🖤
That is my favorite indoor museum in North America. It is huge and something for all ages and interests. If you go up to the Boeing 727, go inside and look out the window down at the Chicago to Seattle model railroad it is just a stunningly realistic feeling of flying into O'Hare or SeaTac.
We spoke with you in the elevator that day, we asked your name for your channel...nice job, glad we found this!
So cool, just acquired my first mold from Vegas recently, a Pluto. Love learning about the Mold a Rama. 👍
Curious where you found one in Vegas. That's awesome.
@@laurag9203 it was at the Pinball Hall of Fame
You are the Mold A Rama king collector.
I read the title and smelled the machine immediately. Haven't been to the museum in decades.
Mold-omazing! 👍
Thanks for sharing 🙂
I love the Sinclair dinasour. Brings back my childhood memories.
Just perfect for you! Hope both you had fun.
I remember this museum when I was a kid had a huge machine. You put in a nickel and it turned it into a ashtray. Crazy.
I was in love with my 60's ThingMaker! 🥰
Born & raised in Seattle in 1962! That monorail is so cool!
I don't remember that machine at the Seattle Center!
Thanks Jacob!
Thank you’ve never seen a Motorama machine in person but seen a lot on your channel so throughout my fireworks trip or an adventure if I find one I’m definitely gonna get one things do you👍🏻👍🏻🔥🔥
Motoramas are the old car shows from way back when and they held shows like the North American International Car shows.
Breadfruit, (Artocarpus altilis), tree of the mulberry family (Moraceae) and its large fruits that are a staple food of the South Pacific and other tropical areas. Breadfruit contains considerable amounts of starch and is seldom eaten raw. It may be roasted, baked, boiled, fried, or dried and ground into flour. In the South Seas, cloth is made from the fibrous inner bark, the wood is used for canoes and furniture, and glue and caulking material are obtained from the milky juice.
I didn't known that.
