- I traveled, last Wednesday on 10-26-2022, to Charlotte North Carolina to visit a Road Stage and then skip across town to see the epic 3 stage on Pineville-Matthews Rd. (sponsored by Showbiz Pizza, wait till end of vid!) This stage has the last Baby Munch/Choo Choo in existence, The Building character and several other customizations done by Alex the local stage tech. I had a great time with Alex and Tyler and you will too!

141st Vlog. Season 5 Episode 2
2:38 Helen agreeing with him😂😂😂
yeah 😆😆😆😆😆😆
That three stage set up is SO amazing! Its so nice to see people putting effort into keeping these guys around. I would love to see them in person someday. Our local chuck e cheese got rid of our remaining animatronic before I had a chance to see it.
Yeah, it's definitely worth a road trip!
@@SetsStreetsEats am i the only one that notices that he has eyebrows?
You’re not alone, I know about the eyebrows to
I wish someone would saved one complete set of Munch's Make A Believe Band like what Aaron Fechter did for The Rock Afire Explosion... because he has a huge shop in Florida!!!
if youre talking about the warehouse, thats been gone for a few years now
I’m pretty sure dept.18 productions has one
Department 18
Aaron made them
A channel I forgot the name of has a complete MMBB (cyberamics)
I was born in Charlotte and I worked at the Showbiz Pizza Place on Highway 51 in the early 90's (89, 90, 91) during the "concept unification" right before I left for college in 1991. Showbiz was the absolute chit. It is hard to believe almost a quarter century later this location still has all the animatronics on all three stages. I remember dressing up as Billy Bob and my friend as Chuck E Cheese and we would chase each other around the 150+ arcade games and pinball machines. I remember doing "lock ins" where kids could spend the night, watch the show and play games all night long! I still take my 9 year old to this very CEC location to this day. They took out the sports room and the beverage bar. Heck the only thing that is really original from what I can tell are the locations of the bathroom, the tech room and the stage itself. Oh and now it is no smoking! LOL! Yeah you could order pitchers of beers, smoke stogies and watch the rear projection TV in the "sports bar" while your kids ran around with no supervision. The only thing constant is change. Thanks for posting this!
its early 90s not late 90s lol
@@user-ee1vs6wt2b my bad. I corrected my post. I worked there in 89, 90, 91...
so were you there when cec characters were being put on stage? imnitguy?
@@user-ee1vs6wt2b Yes. The concept unification was done right before I left for college in 1991. I worked at Showbiz from 1989-1990 in the Pineville Matthews Road CEC location in SE Charlotte. The Showbiz turned CEC is still open in my city and state. I take my 9 year old daughter there. The only things that remained the same are the stage itself, the bathrooms and the tech workshop in the back. The rest has been Chuckied! The show in this location is probably one of the best condition ones in the USA. It is also the only location with the mini munch in the can on the floor. There are YT videos here that will demonstrate just how wonderful the condition of the show still is in 2023. What a blast!
The building and baby munch are super cool to see working again, when I was a kid the one by me was set up like the street stage you described, it really was good.

It worked
We did it 🥳
yea let's go we did it!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
This vid gave me so much nostalgia. Former CZcamsr Big Cheese visited these two store frequently. Don’t know what happened to him or why he terminated his channel, but it’s good to see these two NC locations again.
My fav stage of all time is the Huntsville AL location but the last one you showed w/ Munch Jr. and the awesome lighting is a close second.
Side note: I couldn’t hear Alex very well when you were talking with him because the show was going on at that very moment. Perhaps you could have waited until they stopped performing before letting Alex show you around the stage?
I heard it’s because he thought he was too old for CEC.
It was because of the 2.0 and stuff and plus he got tired of CEC because of that just like other former fans
@@SimplyBetterDouchebag It was because of the 2.0 and stuff and plus he got tired of CEC because of that just like other former fans
@@gwenmloveskpopandmore That's no excuse to up and terminate his channel without warning and rid the internet of his excellent documentation of the animatronics and the stores in general
@@bluegold1026 True that!
I came back and re watched this video it still blows me away at how amazing these guys are! I hope they are still in as good condition or better as they were in this video! I hope you can re visit this location again sometime soon!
At least one of these people left but they're still in good shape
Thanks Man! Always had a Happy time there
That’s awesome , good to see people care about the animatronics , awesome individuals , thanks for another video , cheers from Milwaukee !
Great video!
It's really sad how the Albemarle Rd Road Stage has been neglected. It used to be in perfect shape. With those flow controls cranked, they just tear themselves apart.
Wasn’t that the one where some inexperienced fans messed with the flow controls?
@@Jordanninja09 yup
Edited to not say anyone’s name
@@TheofficialJay_CECandgames Hey, don’t name drop. I don’t want to get them offended.
@@Jordanninja09 Yes, Rye Rye 29 went there and opened all the flows up thinking that's "fixing a show"
It was great seeing you, Chris! Glad you enjoyed the stage :)
I did man, thanks again for the tour!
Hey @verge-youtube Is there any truth to the rumor that they are going to spare pineville's 3 stage from destruction? It's popped up the last couple weeks again and I didn't know if it actually has some validity. If you don't want to say here, shoot me an email 🙂 pacerpimp@gmail.com
awesome! i had no idea that the road stage there was getting signals again, very cool to see.
I love their Halloween decor!! Back when I went to Pineville in the summer they had nice summer ones as well!
This is my local; I'm so happy you got to experience it! Alex did an amazing job with repairing show and I couldn't be happier!
Agreed, it looks great!
@@SetsStreetsEats yeah your right Chris it’s awesome
Pineville might be a next retro store! The fandom says Rumored to be the next retro store in January 2024 now!
#savepineville
Pineville has to keep the stage just like northridge
your videos are keeping my life and joy afloat
Aww, thanks!
7:10 Pasqually turns and stares into your soul
Oh no, I didn't know Albermarle's location was the one that had the cursed Pasqually 😭 But the Pineville Mathews location is FIRE. I went there before the tech upgraded them all, I need to go back there sometime
Awesome you went here. Beautiful conditioned show!!
they werent until ryerye did work on the show! :D unless you talking bout pineville if u were that would be embarassing lol
@@jjxstynn rye actually ruined the show. He doesn’t know what he’s doing with the air flows. It’s just tearing them apart
These are both good conditioned stores! But I was mainly talking about Pineville,,
@@TheofficialJay_CECandgames Bro he has repaired a different show before the road stage lol and it actually helped. But people like you made him not want to make his work public.
So glad I found your channel. I live close enough to this to make a trip. I'm def more of a rock a fire man but I can't wait to see this again either.
Same, Rockafire was my jam growing up and I've definitely enjoyed finding little pieces of it that are still around 😊
so happy to see the animatronics got the tlc love they deserve, they look so lively. i hope they don't get removed for the crappy 2.0 remodel. wish other locations did the same when they had the chance
Well thoughs that have a chance might as well still enjoy that cu three stage retro Rock-afire Explosion/Munch's Make Believe Band wanna be style look show. All those creative engineering animatronics look fabulous. I'd love a pic of retroed Fatz/cu Mr Munch look.
Awesome Video. It even had a wink!
2:34 Helen agreed
That last Munch Jr. is actually a replica built by a CEC tech employee
Yeah we talk about him 3D printing it in this video
im glad some locations still keep their bots and old logo
That Looks Just Like Willy's Wonderland.
Those animatronics still terrify me at almost 30 years old
Ikr
never saw the scariness in them. To me they are just cool
Yo yo yo great news pinville is keeping there animatronics
I went to the Pineville one back in summer it is really cool!!
The next thing it needs is pizzacam, and the old TV
wdym old tv
I think 3 stage was in better condition in the summer
Yeah it was but I’m glad it’s still working though regardless
Only one of Helen's eyes are working now (that's actually common)
the roadstage helen and chucky just looking at the camera is unsettling even though its just basic movements
Can you please do a pineville revisit next weekend?
some locations that work great and are getting 2.0... maybe instead of destroying the working ones, they should be put to good use and be transferred to locations like Albemarle (the one with the road stage) who's animatronics aren't working too good.
Having a yellow haired Helen Henry makes it stand out from the rest 😉
I don’t know but when I was younger I saw the animatronics in toy boxes and there’s now nothing to see about it
i was at pineville a while back.
You've inspired me into go to these two locations, and the two closets to me at the moment
This stage is so much cooler than the one my store had. I loved my stage but this one is dope
I realized that both of them while you were there they both played witches crew
This is the location where a youtuber name big cheese always filmed at this location to do up close and personal with the animatronics But unfortunately he left a CZcams
I think the only animatronic they're missig is the pizza cam. Other than that, they're all there!
Speaking of Hawaiian pizza at Chuck E Cheese
I remember seeing a TV show where the premise was they revisited foods from the 1980s that you can’t get today.
In that particular episode they looked at 1980s Chuck E Cheese Pizza. They recreated the 1980s Hawaiian pizza, which did have pineapple and ham… but interestingly it also had almonds. You can’t get this pizza at CEC today, but the host of the show admitted the combination sounded odd, yet it still worked as a pizza
The 3 stagw on Pineville Mathews is the one I visited as a child when it was Showbiz and after xoxox
i don't understand how cec corporate can let these automatronics rot in their open businesses. i wish they'd just sell them to private collectors so they can get the love they deserve
Was albermarl road working?(this is rock afire fan 101 but on my other account)
Yes this is my other account btw
I got interested in chuck e cheese by its history and how I used to go I wish the nearest one still had the animatronics and also made me interested in robotics I able to drive and these two locations are 1 hour drive to get there I plan to vist hopefully they still go this there it so cool to see thing from the past
It’s gonna stay!!!!!
I feel like pasqually has the V1 PTT mask at Charlotte Albemarle
I'd love to see you go to the lynnwood WA location! This is my local location, and it is one of the most beautiful and unique stages out there! Thanks for the great content!
I already did, here's the link!
czcams.com/video/DsJPeg0j5ys/video.html
@@SetsStreetsEats thanks so much! Glad you had a good time in seattle!
Chuck e cheese animatronic has eye brows
Bros mustage is upsidedown💀💀
What stage road stage 3 stage?
Road stage
I went to the second location in 2020 and there wasnt a baby munch back then!! Im assuming he was a newer addition?
I had no idea there were still locations with animatronics. I really hope they keep the Pineville location because I've heard so much care has been put into that one to keep it alive. I also think one former ShowBiz location that underwent Concept Unification should be kept as a nod to its history.
Agreed!
That 3 stage must’ve in Pineville. I believe the only left in Charlotte unless that’s the one on the east side on Abermarle Rd. I wish they factored in programming the curtains. That’s the wow factor for me lol. If only I knew how to repair/fabricate parts and sew, I’d make sure they never leave and move ultra fluid like
I Think you Should do Sam’s Circle Chesapeake VA They have the oldest 2 stage and a rare car ride And their store also is fully franchised!
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get there on this trip but I'm definitely planning on it next summer.
Ok
@@bigkev7582 btw
It is the oldest still operating 2 stage
The first one was white settlement tx but it sadly closed
LOL at Pasqually's upside down moustache on the road stage.
Pasqually went sicko mode
I don’t know if pineville will actually be the next retro store because I want it to be the next retro store.
That 3 stage has the moon
Can you please go there again today or tomorrow and can you please tell them to save the stage?
Big cheese that used to be on CZcams filmed these locations
The first stage Jasper looks like baby Patrick.
1:34 - I just noticed they left Pasqually's mustache on upside down
Nice the technician used to play older shows like form the 2000s after hours but CEC didn’t like that so he stopped posting them
He still does it Just no recording them is allowed 😉
@@3105ace corporate threatened thier jobs if they posted anymore of those.
@@3105ace CEC has a problem with old CEC before 2020 CEC showtapes we’re not allowed the original CEC showtape archive account got banned it had all shows with puppets but was removed sometime in 2019 I remember I couldn’t find the account
@@3105ace CEC probably just doesn’t want outdated content to be played in the stores, and contacting corp won’t do anything they won’t listen.
Chuck e cheese ND reopening November 10th
I see a moon animatronic in the back too!!
Amazing video as always! One thing I should probably mention is that West Des Moines still have their Building and Moon.
They don’t run anymore unfortunately but they’re still back there! On my first visit, my friend who works at that store allowed me to go on stage and take a peek at them!
But anyways, great video! Looking forward to more!
Yeah I knew they did but unfortunately I never saw them while I was there because of course as you said they don't work, so it was really good to see them in action!
Sadly I heard the store already removed the stage.
@@CyberstarChuck Des Moines was originally supposed to remodel around this time but they post-poned to sometime next year.
@@UnshornKeyboardist that’s odd. Because someone called this store and a employee said the stage has been taken out…
6:44 baby munch!
I never knew cyber stages had this!
I think it's very funny because when I looked at the wink Len helen honey nor did joe head
jojo king has a building animatronic🏢🏢🏢🏢
You should go to Asheville North Carolina next
Ay Les go another Chuck E. Cheese video on my birthday 👏
That 3 Stage was absolutely amazing! Not only Munch Jr. but the Building too?
is the building rare?
It's the only functioning one in stores@@clownzinaround12
Is it just me, or in the first Chuck E Cheese, chuck was looking at him the whole time??
0:56 why dose chuck e have eyebrows because the other chuck e animatronics that look like that don’t have eyebrows
I remember when there was a Chuck E. Cheese it being the closest but sadly 2 hours away- It closed later and became a Bernie and Phil’s .
I actually live not too far from Charlotte
So this was cool to watch
Correction it is actually called munch jr
I know, I just thought it was more fun to call him baby munch
Corporate should seriously leave this stage alone!
This aged very well
pasquallys mustache in upsidedown on the road stage
I will be fixing that soon
Can't wait for this video I'm going to be so impatient
Less than 24 hours away!
I got to see the Charlotte NC Pineville one
#savepinevillethreestage
I have that Truckee cheese in my neighborhood
#savepineville3stage
I’ve gone to both of them! Pasqually was looking pretty… bad in the road stage.
Yeah. You can. hear a air leak in helen
2:57 that is terrifying
I saw Noah’s Ark that is also at the Tyler, Texas location.
Will there ever be a skit comparison of Pineville?
Funny Mr munch wasn't ever my favorite character hence I love the color purple. and loves pizza. Creative engineering Baby bear choo choo/ wanna be Munch Jr look is so cute looking.
This is an amazing vidoe
Rip pizza cam
pinesville Munch Jr isn’t it’s original mech it was added back in 2021 as a custom bot how it moves up is that he’s connected to munch’s footap
When did he say they were going to turn the 3 stage into the dance floor?
They haven't been given a date yet.
