Stages
This location housed The Rock-A-Fire Explosion. Not much is known about their Rock-Afire in specific other than Antioch's lift surviving. Other than that, The show was retrofitted into Munch's Make Believe Band in May 1991. However, the show got into terrible condition by 1993. In 1993 Brian Hagan is hired as tech and majorly improves the decrepit condition the show was in. He also makes new improvements to the show's theming. (Playroom Stage, Vegas Stage, Winter Stage) However, Brian was picked up by CEC's Entertainment Department in 1996. Therefore, he had to leave the store. The show immediately fell back into a terrible condition.

By 2002, the playroom retrofit was turned back into the standard 3-Stage but with some things being untouched like Pasqually's position, Jaspers can, and Chuck E's base. All of their outfits were changed into the standard 3-Stage look. The backdrops were sourced from SPT, the store's originals having been thrown away rather than stored. At an unknown point after 2002 Chuck E's base is replaced with the regular black one.

Before 2010, the tuxedo on Chuck E. is finally replaced with the newer Avenger outfit. In April 2012 Snapper Ard, a fan, does maintenance on the show and removes the prop characters. The again the show fell into terrible condition, but not as bad as the last two as it was able to recover in 2016 when more maintenance is done and Chuck E's shirt is changed to the current Rockstar outfit.

The Cyberstar broke a few times after 2016, leaving them static. The issue was always fixed relatively quickly until October 2019, when the show was removed and trashed for the Dance Floor.
