- Originally filmed in late July. I apologize for not getting the video finished sooner. Do to the file size it costed a good amount of my phone storage and I’ve been busy with life.
Had a great time visiting this historical Chuck E. Cheese store! It really sucks that they plan to remodel the store and remove the animatronics. However my plan is to visit as many Chuck E. Cheese stores with animatronics before they all get removed.
I especially heard the weird and devastating news about Studio C no longer performing so if possible, I may try to go to a CEC with Studio C before Summer of Fun ends. If that ends up not being the case, that’ll suck but oh well.
Anyways, thank you all very much for checking out my video! If you like this content, please leave a like, comment, and subscribe if you haven’t yet!

Used to go here when I was a kid. I've heard people say that they've been getting rid of the animatronics. So I always knew in my heart the ones in West Des Moines haven't been removed. You're still in beautiful looking condition. Need to go back, love this place.
I hate to break it to you but they removed them a few days ago… 💔😭
@@UnshornKeyboardist As an Iowan I was thinking of going there just to look at the characters. Shame to know they're gone.
I can’t believe I was able to see this stage! Very nice store hope you had fun!
I can’t believe I did either! I loved it!
These guys are in excellent mechanical condition! A little cosmetic wear, but still amazing. I wish all shows moved this good still
Agreed!
I can’t believe you witnessed the first 3 stage still with us in front of your very eyes!
I can’t believe it either! It was incredible to see!
I did 2
I hate when kids do that, poor Jasper but glad you got to visit to store it’s really nice!
I do too… I’m glad I did too! This is officially one of my favorite CEC stores! Such a pity that they’re getting 2.0 soon…
Kid? Old enough to know better and purposely did that to be disrespectful just because it mattered to someone. Future trash human being
@@Terrell_T-Bone not all parents teach their kids not to touch shit that don’t belong to them and a lot of kids just don’t give a shit either way
does anyone know if this location has been remodeled yet? i heard its supposed to be this month
It has now
Unfortunately it remodeled a few months back…
I so thought that jasper leg was toast after he pulled it like that. ashamed they were just sawed up
It's very impressive how these bots are the oldest surviving rock Afire bots from 1980 still working in 2022 💥
Ikr?? It’s crazy! If only West Des Moines’ Billy Bob, Looney Bird, and Earl survived…
@@UnshornKeyboardist Let's hope they were sold off to private collectors
@@deshawnkaba8445 I'd be overjoyed if they were converted back into a beta Rock-afire
Gotta love how that location has a beta Rock Afire Explosion sign but with the MMBB sign put onto it, it's noticeably a beta sign with the light arrangement and the way the sign post looks.
Yeah! It’s crazy! I actually got to look behind it and I could see some of the original sign. The top and bottom bushes are still there but the RAE logo was sadly removed 😢
@@UnshornKeyboardist I hope the sign at least can be saved. Also from what I know, the beta Rock Afire Explosion sign was designed to be a tree with the Rock Afire Explosion logo.
@@sethhorst6158 It was a really cool design. I will legit be heartbroken if the sign gets smashed up. Des Moines as well as New Orleans both have the last known existing beta RAE signs. I’m hoping at least one of them, preferably both get saved.
@@UnshornKeyboardist Agreed, one would go well with the surviving beta Fatz & beta Looney Bird mech that Jack Turner has.
This is the chuck e cheese I went to when I was younger😊
Aalways had birthday's at this location growing up. It looks so weird to how i remember it. I want to say there was a wall that divided the store up. They also used to have a decently sized ball pit. What I really miss is the Simpsons arcade. Overall the place looks a lot brighter than i remembered. Could be the time of day though.
That’s awesome! Do you have any photos and/or footage of it back then? Me and other fandom members have been trying to document the location more.
@@UnshornKeyboardist I know of one picture but I'm not convinced it survived me being a teenager. Lol unfortunately my parents never took a lot of photos.
I was about to say that you’re an adult and you are overexcited about such a thing but then I realized that I would probably do the same shit and I’m almost 20 years old so I can’t judge. 😂 I’ve seen a 3 stage when I was like 7-8 but as an avid Showbiz Pizza fan now, seeing one 11-12 years later would be a new perspective for me. Great video though. You’ve probably given one of the best store tours yet
Well I’m glad you didn’t say that first thing because we certainly do not judge here! 😝 But I’m glad you enjoyed it! Please consider subscribing!
Wow I went there months ago with my younger sister like a week before they remodeled apparently. How many of the showbiz stages are left?
i’m not sure of when this comment was made, but now there are only two left. (not counting the concept unification 1 stage.)
DID ANYONE NOTICE WHEN HE WAS CHECKING BEHIND THE 3-STAGE, DID ANYONE NOTICE THE OLD BUILDING MODEL???
Didn't realize that the Chuck E. Cheese that I went to as a kid and honestly still pass by from time to time was so historically important.
Oh yeah, while it was known that it was the fifth Showbiz, it wasn’t until recently that we found out that they have the 3rd set of RAE characters.
@@UnshornKeyboardist Well, thank you (and others in the community) for managing to discover that realization. Honestly, if I have money to spare at some point might go back to see the place myself.
Well if you live by, you can just walk in and watch the show for free. Obviously it costs money to play games and eat pizza but other than that, at least go to appreciate the show.
I actually went to this store again two months after this first recorded visit. Decided to spoil myself and get me an XL pizza for like 30 bucks I think. 😋
The hard luck bears (rock-afire retrofit) is reopening in 3 locations in the gulliver's theme parks, and xan is going to be fixing them.
I know! I'm friends with him :p
Does this location’s building and moon not move ?
The stage is really nice!😁
Yes it is!!!
Go and see it soon ! They are taking them out either March or April of next year
I know! Unfortunately it’s a 3 hour drive but I’m trying my best to see it as much as possible before the tragic remodel!
@@UnshornKeyboardist it’s 2 for me and I’m feeling the same way ! I’ve gone twice this year already ,gonna try and go twice before it’s gone !
@@UnshornKeyboardist same it’s three hour drive for me
Local chuck e cheese right here
Lucky you! It’s a 3 hour drive for me… 😭
@@UnshornKeyboardist kinda sad that this location doesnt have the wink
WHY DAVID WHYYYYYYY
That is pordotype phase 4 sign on the outside of the store I think
Yup. They converted the sweater Chuck sign into Avenger Chuck.
Are the bots still here as of today? I live close and want to watch one last show!
I'm going to sub through my animation channel
Thanks broski!
11:32 , of course , people being ghetto and disrespecting stuff that doesn’t belong to them 🤦♂️
